Champions ruin so many fun builds.

Y'all went all out overhauling the armor and mod system back in shadowkeep and continue pushing out cool exotic armor effects and 3.0 changes for build making (often doing so pretty well) but you have this invasive species called Champions undermining it all, with the mods taking up slots you need for your build. There are times when I have a cool build on, look at an activity that's spammed with champions and sit in Orbit wondering why I even bother. All content can be beaten by just using the most broken weapons that happen to be supported by the seasonal mod meta, high stat armor and finder/scav mods. Since Champion are here to stay, can we have separate slots on Gauntlet armor for champ mods that don't take up energy? Why does being able to effectively fight essential enemy types in harder content have to be a privilege or trade off? I look at the cost for a sniper barrier mod and it just doesn't make sense to me 😮‍💨

  • Here's an idea on how to make them less awful. Now that exotics are getting intrinsic anti champion mods on them . How about we make weapon crafting something to really chase rather than just a way to curb the rng. Allow us to level a weapon up and once it's lvl 15 or 20, we can then add one anti champion mod intrinsically to that weapon. It would be our crafted God roll for our builds that we want, on top of also being able to be used in endgame activities with champions. Then we can still run our preffered reload or recharge mods on our gauntlets that make a ton of builds viable rather than restricting us to weapons we may not want to use every few months for arbitrary reasons. Ideally they would just get rid of them but I doubt they ever will.
