We Need Numerical Values For Mods & Perks

I want clear, numerical values for mods & perks.

90

Vague wording is fine.

I don't care about damage resistance & buffs.

I've always wondered why there isn't something that shows the actual percentage gains for mods & perks. I know I'm not alone either & regardless of the reasons behind why this doesn't exists, after a decade I think someone could take some time & figure out how to fix this irritating section of Destiny; especially considering what a big part of the game a player's build is. Knowing the real resistance percentage or damage buff without having to find it online or try, do the research & math in game or memorize it from whatever you may figure out over time would save me so much time when I'm trying to build into a new artifact or activity. So many games have numerical values. This game is hard enough to understand for new players as is & as a veteran player since the launch of D1, I can honestly say that it's still not that clear to me. If a resistance mod cost three instead of two you'd think it would be better, but it's just different. Sure it covers a wider variety of damage, but it's still not necessary worth three points. The stacking of mods really needs clearly stated values too. Maybe once they decide to pick a system & stick with it, instead of changing the mods & perks with each expansion, they will take the time to fix the this annoyance, one hopes... 🙂🖖🏼 If anyone thinks this makes since, please share it with Bungie.

    My theory is they can't give us numbers because the numbers are always changing. Occasionally they do give us numbers and then someone tests the numbers and figures out they are wrong. It's like a big interconnected puzzle in which you change one variable and it ends up having a bunch of unintended side effects. So they probably don't even always know 100% what the numbers are themselves.
