Without causing severe imbalance, here are some ways Adepts could be more enticing.
• Drops with additional barrel and mag perk options (3-4 instead of just 2).
• Additional perks are available in the third and fourth column that are not present on the standard version of the weapon.
• Drops with additional 3rd and 4th column perks based on efficiency in the activity, up to ? perks.
?-• Some perks are present in different columns than on the original, allowing for different combinations of the same perks.-?
• Can be focused with additional perks for increased cost.
• Masterworks can be enhanced further, providing up to 15 to a stat rather than just 10 for example.
• Adept mods can be equipped alongside non-adept ones, for example: Counterbalance + Adept Handling could both be equipped at once on a weapon.
• Introduce a set of new Adept mods, such as Anti-Champion, something akin to Spec mods (+damage to specific enemy type), or general utility perks.
• Additional origin traits drop guaranteed (ex: Nightfall Adepts all gain Indomitability), or New universal Adept origin trait(s) exclusively available on Adept weapons.
?-• Can use multiple origin traits at once (ex: Vanguard's Vindication and Stunning Recovery)-?

Edited by TonnoSenpai: 5/22/2025 7:48:46 AMgood ideas, but next they are probably stopping with adepts , but old adepts should get a little buff ( if they don't make all adeps tier3/4)
