I have completely given up on total customization of my gear. Once I reach max light, I'm just going to upgrade to 5 energy and use the armor neutral mods and maybe go to 6 total energy to add a +1 mod. It's waaaaay cheaper to do that that to completely masterwork your gear. Right now, I've just been putting on whatever is the highest light. I hate having low mobility, recovery, resilience and having garbage super time. The grenade and melee times are pretty much the same as always of you have at least tier 3 stats on them so that part doesn't really feel too different. All in all, the new system is a dumpster fire. Bungie lied in the Vidoc about being able to play and look how we want. They've always lied though. Gotta get that money. Sigh.
