Orb mods are highly unnecessary and will hurt the game more than help it.
These mods only further amplify an issue introduced with holders tbh. Nobody uses them because there is no room on armor to support the sheer energy cost and their inferiority over scav mods.
It’s going to be the same here, nobody wants to remove finders since they are just too superior. If the mod worked for all guns then maybe but they will only work for specific elements which is even worse since MAX 2 guns will make orbs.
Although the artefact change is good, it’s another 1 step forward and 2 steps back with the orb nerf…

Was about to pre order witch queen . But I think I’ll hold off for it but. It makes no sense giving my money on a game.that really don’t respect there players time and honestly they just fine ways to drain all the fun out of the game

Riot Against Bungie
-
Hey Bungie , why not make non masterwork weapons generate orbs? Bungie: Let's take orb generation out of weapons and link in a helmet mod and restrict by element. CLAP......
-
Bungie just really doesn't want us using supers I guess
-
Typical Bungie moment, fix a problem using the most -blam!--backwards "solution" possible. People wanted catalystless exotics to make orbs. Nobody asked for this unnecessary and blatantly poorly-hidden nerf to the PvE sandbox as a whole.
-
Confirmed true. Creating a mod that every player will run is bad game design. Mods are supposed to encourage building not restrictions. Brain dead game design. Most likely willfull ignorance from bungie to -blam!- us in some way. Seriously regretting my pre-order..
-
Can’t have people using their materials the way they want.
-
Will not be masterworking my weapons anymore no point
-
Agreed, the fact that we have to tell them this shows their lack of depth in regards to thinking through the problem.

Edited by 123TheCloop: 1/14/2022 2:58:10 AMHow did no one not see this coming..... I mean we literally got Dungeon armour that gives us "5 slots" I knew something was gunna happen with mods when they dropped this armour with 5 slots. yes it only applies to artefact mods but with crafting who knows what they have planned. still a -blam!- move, dumb, adds restrictions that aint needed and basically makes masterworking weapons worthless. glad I cleared my vault of most of my masterworked weapons. Also this idea sounds like a lazy -blam!- cop out for not adding catalysts for existing exotics that yet dont have any, so instead "here you can make orbs now" oh but you need to use a mod slot while we are probs gunna offer you armour with 5 slots in WQ 100% calling this now.

1 ReplyI quit Destiny 2 half-way into Season 14 and came back half-way into season 15. This orb change (and all the other BS) is de-motivating me again. Was already feeling zero interest in Witch Queen. The mod system is already terrible. There are too many mods and they are too expensive. And now more mod BS.

1 ReplyTypical Bungie move. The real solution is to just leave it the same
-
If only there were other CWL mods that we could use other than taking charge 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
-
There really has to be a ridiculous upside to this to compensate. Like each kill being an orb, maybe multikill/streaks spawn a fountain of orbs. And the orb that spawns has to give back more super energy than it currently does. Only then it might be worth to use… maybe
-
It's Bungie─they're completely out of touch with reality. Of course they're going to come up with the most game-breaking, short-sighted way to "fix" their short-sightedness.
-
Fully agree with you a 100%

Edited by Animal Mother: 1/14/2022 12:46:35 AMThey should just stop with weapons making orbs period... un nerf supers for pve instead and bump the orb count from supers back up to D1 levels. What was the minimum back then, 4.. 5... nightstalker could make like 15 depending on how many tethers they got. Ninja nerfing scavenger mods was already a shady thing to do.. they said we should use ammo finder mods. So now they’re taking away ammo finder mods just so someone can make orbs?
-
1 ReplyIt's almost like any change made is like a double edge sword lol. You get your "half truths" of a change but also the "other half" of that change.
-
A interrogative before I offer my opinion: Are you all mad, rightly so I think, because you won’t be able to use Taking Charge as easy? Because the Super energy reward is not that high.
-
How many ppl do you know masterwork weapons to lvl 7 for the kill counter..NOBODY masterwork weapons pppft..nope worthless waste of time ENTER Destiny 2 LITE where everyone gets a trophy and everyone is equal powered no matter what they use. THIS is Bungie makeing a problem nobody -blam!- about..then a -blam!- fix to said problem aformentioned I seen this happen in SWG by sony (everyone gets a jedi) 3months later the game crumbled to dust.. and WOW exploded from the new influx of players..go figure
-
I don’t masterwork weapons or exotics for orbs… o do it for the the stats! This is just a huge need to all of us.. shaheed with light ? Well let’s kill that off….

3 RepliesWelcome to sunset 2.0, please preorder your suffering.

2 RepliesBased on the presented information, it's a pretty bad change. One of the CMs said they'd give more info later that "may change your mind", but it just looks like a straight nerf to things like Super uptime, CWL builds, Explosive Light, those leg health mods, Star Eaters, and some other things I probably missed Like, I know Bungie always Monkey's paws it, but whatever withheld info would need to be pretty convincing to make me not think this is a overall negative change

Edited by SYKEVANDAL: 1/13/2022 6:59:27 PMI just don’t understand the mentality that would support this change as an improvement to gameplay of any kind. Do they just sit around a table in a conference room somewhere and brainstorm ideas that cannibalize and/or nerf existing content?!? It’s like there is some Bungie law manual that requires two dumb things be done to the game for every one good idea. I just don’t get it.
-
2 RepliesBungie really said: "Instead of adding more catalysts, let's just remove half the functionality of masterworks". The mental gymnastics required there is unreal
-
2 RepliesJust saw that part of the twab. I just don’t understand how Bungie can constantly keep making such bad decisions. Having to use mods for orbs is worse than the situation we were in to begin with. All they had to do was allow exotics to generate orbs on multi kills. That’s it. I honestly don’t think anyone working on this game actually plays it outside of the office.
