All they needed to do was add the scorch line to the beam, making it a special reload was dumb af. Typical bungie breaking crap they dont need to.

It’s no different than how they changed Cerberus, and that turned out well. Firesprite(and now Restoration/solar fragment synergy) creation is nice. If it applies scorch per beam tick, then it could straight up lead to ignitions if the full beam connects, which would be good. It provides a gameplay loop, with rewarding mini games interacting in between. I don’t see it personally taking a [i]huge[/i] leap, but its viability definitely went up, along with its interactions with the solar heavy artifact.
