Ghost armor mods are non-functional
I'm sure this is posted already but I'll make another because awareness needs to be raised.
I'm sure everyone has noticed that the ghost armor mods are having absolutely no effect on drops. This is the most frustrating, however, since they also are not affecting purchased exotics (except for Xur maybe).
If Bungie doesn't want you influencing world drops fine and if they want to eliminate the ghost mods altogether then do that but at least provide an alternative to let us focus exotics.. I would propose letting us purchase more Exotic Requisition Orders (with Ascendant Shards and Engrams, not silver of course). That system works well and is already in place.
That is all.

It’s weightgate all over again. The same system they had in place for weapon perks is the same for armor stat distribution. Obviously I’m not 💯 but it sure feels like it with the amount of heath class and low as stat in another random slot I get

I feel like mines doing something. I have the grenadier mod. Out of my unique Tier 4 and 5 armor pieces: 16% Brawler 16% Bulwark 27% Grenadier 10% Gunner 11% Paragon 21% Specialist -
I can't have fun. It's not fun to HAVE to play anything. It's only fun when the thing I thought up works. And let me tell you, I make a build that finally works, next day it doesn't anymore. Just like division 2........

Yep no point in putting them on. All I get is health stacked armor.

1 ReplyWith the changes in how stats work, this game should be raining loot on us to let players pick and choose the best combination of gear for their builds. Now that every point matters, it's way more sensitive to have +1 or -1 in anything than before, when you just needed a double/triple 100 stat build and dumped the rest of your points in mobility, if much. The game is a complete mess with almost everything conflicting with the new tier and grade system. The lack of staff is affecting the production and the quality of the game more and more, and this expansion is making this very clear.

It has been always like this. Before new dlc it was like tvis, ghost did have mids but no effect. Armors drops with your lowest stat. It is part of Bungie design do that playrs have to grind max out.

Half the game is non functional

I have noticed the same thing. I can slot various combos and doesnt seem to make a difference. If fact it feels like it does the opposite. I just hit 400 PL and between 3 characters I have one tier 5 piece of armor, and one tier 4 armor piece that has the distribution that I am looking for. The rest is deleted and frustration grows. I look at some of the builds being shown online and I cant get close to getting stats in the right slot to even try them. And most have the caveat that you have to build to a minimum in certain stats or it wont produce same result. Never have I been more frustrated in D2 knowing the build possibilities are there but I can't get armor to make it work.

4 RepliesEdited by Raiyu: 8/15/2025 10:06:38 AMBungie have issues with giving, for real. After all they've put us through, they thought a few hundred unstable cores was sufficient to keep us happy, when I get more than that for deleting two unwanted items, of which I get many thanks to the ghost mods not working. I honestly don't understand how they came to any conclusions in the bungie office as to how any of this was a good idea. It's like a blind guy driving a formula one car, he's bound to crash at some point. It seems bungie finally hit a wall, and we are the car left in pieces.

They know, they don't care.

If they had like a 75% chance in place i would be okay with that yet it seems you only have like 1% of a chance for the right roll that takes like 30 to 80 activities just to get 1 of 4 or 5 pieces of armor

They do work. 1/6 -> 1/4. Not very noticeable but they work.
