Possible buff for melee builds. (An Open Letter To Bungie Staff)

Dear Bungie: You guys put glaives in the game, and I love them, but there are SO MANY exotic armor pieces that already see disuse, that would, and do, see even more disuse due to the fact that glaive melee straight-up doesn't work with them, and thus makes them actively detrimental to use with a glaive build. Such exotics include, but are not limited to: the Severance Enclosure, the ACD/0 Feedback Fence, and the Dunemarchers. These are simply the ones I have tested. While I understand the feeling that you need to keep things "balanced" such that certain builds aren't overpowered, is this game not to some extent a Power Fantasy? Allow the players to have some fun/crazy combos! Let the Mechaneer's Tricksleeves buff the Forerunner! Let the Erianna's Vow become monstrous with the Lucky Pants! Let ANYTHING work with the glaive melee for once because glaives just feel like a mess due to the extremely narrow compatibility window. If you're so worried about the PVP balance, then simply disable or tweak them [i]for pvp[/i] and explicitly state as such. Maybe I'm asking too much, or maybe you simply haven't thought of it, but when you have to completely disable a piece of gear or ability due to how it interacts with a newly introduced other piece of gear or ability, it gives everyone the impression that you don't think things through first, and then scramble to fix the "mistake" when your PVP players start whining and complaining. I am merely a humble enjoyer of your game. I spend probably too much time playing your game. I want to see that game become better, and when I see missed opportunities or sudden bugs that seemingly have no good reason to be there, such as the bug that broke the Polaris Lance Catalyst [i](seriously, what even happened there?)[/i], it makes me mad and sad that it seems like you aren't treating this piece of media with as much respect and care as many of us fans do. You don't have to listen to me, but I really hope you do. Signed, NoobFace McGee

  • Read the twab and rejoice, glaives now work with karnstein armlets, acd/0 feedback fence, and necrotic grip on warlock. It’s a good day to be a glaive user.

  • Just thought this up, you can have it for free. Make a mod that's really expensive energy-wise that states "Glaive melee strikes count as Powered melee strikes." Suddenly there's a trade-off. One would have to remove most or all of the mods on a given piece of equipment, and in exchange, their glave is capable of synergizing with their armors. I don't know how readily this can be done, maybe it can't, but hey, I'm not a programmer.
