I like this idea. But, it would still be the same elemental primary (in your example, a scout rifle). The only thing that would change is the element. This was not the problem. The problem was that everyone was using Fatebringer, VoC, AE and Oversoul. Unless you do something similar to what the OP said, you will still have the same problem that Luke "The Idiot" Smith couldn't figure out a half decent way to fix. Elements must infuse into other primaries or everyone will use the same gun, and the Idiot will take them from us again. That is, unless Luke leaves Bungie. Please, please leave Bungie! I would throw money at the screen to see him leave Bungie
