Hi there! First I would like to say this is a suggestion for better gameplay followed by listed examples.
In the latest patch we have been able to see the current expertise of a given equipped item slot.
What we can’t see is a given expertise per weapon.
Suggestion 1.
Make it so we can check expertise of each weapon on the weapon skills tab.
Example:
Explanation: This gives the player a better visual representation of there given weapon expertise without having to equip a given weapon.
Suggestion 2:
Add a system in which after you hit level 20 on a weapon and your above level 60, you can keep leveling a weapon by combat. And each level past 20 would bump expertise of that weapon by 1.
Explanation:
This system: injunction with the current way of leveling expertise would give a new way for players to raise there overall GS of weapons outside of elite runs, outpost rushes and end game expedition content.
Off topic Feedback not related to the main post:
Apon hitting expertise 570 there doesn’t seem to be a reason to quest. As a example, Ebon scale reach is one of my favorite zones strictly based off its environment. But the quest (which some are actually difficult and require a teammate) reward 45-55 rewards.
My suggestion: Would be to have quest rewards scale to the player. If your for example level 60, have quest rewards give items that are of roughly the players expertise level.
(I know this would need some balancing as players would try and save low level quest for end game rewards).
But I do believe there needs to be a reason to want to do content thats in the game, and this would eliminate some of the stress of just grinding chest, portals and expeditions for expertise.
Thank you, and happy adventures!
