I think I have a solution to those who re-roll every weapon until it has the perfect perk combination. The purpose of fixing this reforging system, is now all it takes if time and you can get the perfect roll on your crucible weapons. Which makes those lucky drops less special and the crucible full of essentially the same few weapons.
Each time you choose to reforge a weapon, there is a chance it will dismantle and you will lose it.
Each time you reforge it again, the change continues to go up with the cost.
For example, Hopskotch Pilgrim
1st Reforge
3 weapon parts
3 motes of light
250 glimmer
2nd Reforge
5 weapon parts
5 motes of light
550 glimmer
3rd Reforge
7 weapon parts
7 motes of light
750 glimmer
Etc etc...
Thoughts?
[b]Edit: Example:
I get a Matador 64 out of the crucible.
My drop has hidden hand and range finder.
Now I have to make a choice... Do I risk losing a decent shotgun completely for a slightly different roll? Is it worth the cost of materials to keep attempting a better roll?
That's the thought process.[/b]

I understand the idea but don't think it's necessary. The odds of you getting your perfect weapon are low. Yes, it's possible to achieve with s lot of re-rolling but they built in a speed bump to slow you down...weapon parts. It was initially fun for any long time player to finally have a use for those 2000-3000 weapons parts we held on to. But after ascending weapons and re-rolling, I burn thru those parts in no time. So now you have to go grind away for weapons parts if you want to keep re-rolling for the perfect weapon. Could take weeks to get it. By that time TTK will be out and that weapon will become obsolete.
