That's a really interesting post.

One fundamental issue facing Bungie with some of your solutions is this: Crucible is relatively fun to play on a sub level 20 (at least for me.)

If you start creating armor that mitigates head shots, or has the titan you just killed respawn with two fresh rockets, you're engaging in a slippery road with regards to preserving a system that can create an unbalance in regular crucible. This of course can be solved by having those mods work only in IB, but then their usefulness becomes limited.

I really do wish IB armor could be reforged -- I agree with you that the mods are uninspiring.

Isn't there going to be a vanilla/competition mode with no item bonuses soon. I'm pretty excited to see how I stack up when we all have the same guns.
