Thank you lords of darkness, praise be the God!
Hop to it Trion.
Sweet! I hope it gets put in. It should have been an option from launch.
I'm very intrigued by this option. And really hope it happens.
Hurray! I knew they had wanted to add this function, but ran out of time. I was worried they had written off. It's good to know it's still coming.
Why bother resetting the mastery, why not just allow us to keep building on the weapon getting minor upgrades with each level.....
Seems a bit more progressive rather than just wiping your progress for the sake of levelling your weapons skill...
While yes I'm glad I don't need to keep changing weapons to level up I still think it's a stupid solution.
Why not make weapons have 20 levels and grant small bonuses per level, dmg/reload/mag/acc/bloom/max ammo etc.
I would love this. Or at least make it so the weapon skill doesn't cap out at 20.Quote:

I think the idea is for it to be an optional ark salvage sink.
You pay ark salvage to keep using the weapon to level and/or to try for a random weapon mastery bonus that you like better once you've mastered it again.
So if you cap a weapon and it gets a bad bonus, you can reset it and next time you may get a better bonus... This would rock.
I like this idea. But I think Trion wants you to move onto other weapons so you have to open more lockboxes. There are some weapons I love to use because they have Level III mods and good bonuses, but only use them during arkfalls. It's pointless using them anywhere else as they gain me nothing.Quote:

OK, not sure why this thread was necro'd. But GrandmasterKEL, if you don't want a mod on a weapon, then you have to remove it. There is no mastery for mods. You remove them if you want to keep the gun, or retrieve them if you only want to keep the mod.Quote:

The Gladiator rifle we got via an Arkfall code a very....VERY long time ago.
I wish we could totally re roll weapons. Nothing worse than finally pulling an orange and having it be just ok. And it would be nice to roll prepatch items, I'm finding blues on the ground better than some of my old prized possessions. Or even if they just added rolls to put post patch stuff on par with current drops.
