Hear me out: make anti-champion mods armor mods instead of weapon mods. You could put them on elemental affinity armor that corresponds to weapon type (solar for smg an ar, void for scout and hand cannon, etc.) and whatever smg, ar or what-have-you you have equipped gets the perk. That way we could use exotics we like. Maybe some exotics would end up OP, but we'd at least got to use our favorite exotics in nightfalls. Some of those guns were hard for a 2nd tier player like me to get and it sucks that they mainly sit in my vault.

Yea something needs to give. The way it is now it’s far too restrictive. The mods idea and the champion idea were good ones. They just need some reworking. Because currently I personally hate fighting champions because the only way to kill them is with a weapon specifically modded for them. And idk about you but fighting a barrier colossus with an smg is not much fun. His gun is way better than mine and he can shoot through his shield.
