Susanoo, the warlock custom fusion rifle from the Gunsmith quest.
The Transfusion perk has issues
First, it never seems to reset it's element back to default. Does the description not say 'for a period of time'?
Well, I guess ;'forever' technically is a time period, but still
this seems broken
Secondly, the perk is actually a liability.
Most Guardians, choose their weapons to have a Different Element from their subclass, to allow more diversity in our arsenal of damage types.
So having the weapon change to match subclass actually makes it less useful.
Suggested Improvements:
Change the Elemental Transfusion perk to one of the following:
-Elemental damage matches the shield type of the enemy most recently damaged.
-Elemental damage randomly rotates with each kill.
-Elemental damage rotates with each reload.
and other fun variations.
I realize this weapon's shortcomings have gone under the radar because, well, no one uses it.
Maybe that should change.

I REALLY like the idea of the weapon's damage type being related to the shielded enemy killed (engaged?). I used the weapon once and hated it so much it was placed in the vault. I figure if they fix it I may use it again. Anyway, great ideas!
