There are just not enough cores to go around. Not only because the benefits are relatively terrible (and they are), but because again, the cost doesn’t seem remotely worth it and armor is last on the priority lists behind infusion and weapon masterworking. Past this, I have not masterworked a single piece of armor since Forsaken launched. And on things like snipers and swords, even if they do have great rolls, it just doesn’t seem worth the cost. While I have a number of new weapons I like, the core system makes it so that I have to be like “well do I really like this?” so anything that isn’t a picture perfect god roll is not going to be masterworked. I have not masterworked a single weapon since Black Armory launched because it does not seem worth the 20-25 cores it would take to do so, given that I have to spend everything on infusion instead. There is enough to do in Destiny both for casual and hardcore players right now where the Enhancement Core grind is just not a useful or enjoyable use of game time.Īh yes, remember Masterworking? It seems like a distant memory now. And Scrapper bounties are fine if that’s the activity you want to be doing anyway, but running an entire 12-15 minute strike for a single Enhancement Core is not a good use of time. Spider bounties for cores require two levels of grinding because you need to first get Ghost fragments to even get the bounty. Matterweaves are even more rare than dismantle cores. Dismantling legendaries for cores is super inconsistent and a trickle of supplies at best. The sources of cores in the game are just…bad, even with recent changes. The core system does nothing to prevent that. But hardcore players with large stashes of cores can rocket up instantly, which is why we saw people hitting 650 within a week of Black Armory arriving. Playing infrequently will get you a scarce handful of cores and makes it so that it’s not enough just to hit your weekly milestones, but you also have to devote time specifically to core farming. The Enhancement Core system disproportionately punishes casual players while hardcore players still are ascending to max level faster than ever.
