Unstable core economy kinda sucks

I have seen a few people mention this already but I want to bring it up again for the economy team. We need more sources for unstable cores or the costs need to be brought down. I am at LL 384 and it costs ~6500 cores to bring up an item from LL200. This should be drastically reduced. Especially since this whole expansion is trying to get players to try new stuff. Well when it costs many hours worth of time to infuse something no one wants to change what they are using and this just keeps players locked to 1 character and a few weapons. If you are playing a single character with 1 single build and like 6 weapons you wont notice how bad it is. Fixes for this could be make engrams from world drops or Hawthorne drop at 300, or whatever the rounded down hundredth the player is in, instead of 200 so dismantling them gives a few cores each. Give us a source to buy cores. Or just drastically reduce the cost of infusing. Hopefully this can be fixed soon and not in 6 months because players will be very tired of using the same few weapons and armor pieces by then.

  • Am about to hit LL300 - without really leaning into the grind; I just infused stuff with higher stuff, as it became available…and even master-worked some bits to survive tougher missions…and give my guns more ‘bang!’ This got me up to around LL250 / GR6 On today’s grind, especially in Scorched Crucible, I just switched out each new higher piece of gear as I got it…and, no more infusing stuff. When I noticed the high cost of upgrading gear, I stopped! However, some bits needed upgrading - to do more intense missions…Master runs, specifically! I don’t have any plans to chase the higher tier stuff, as I don’t need or desire it…even though some tier 4 stuff is beginning to drop. The best source for this old tortoise is Scorched Crucible…and Solo / Fireteam runs…and Pinnacle runs when ‘Minty’ is up! 🎲👻🎲 Get some in! ✅ That is all. Ease Springs! 🖖
