But if the point of it is just the rewards (Destiny)

But the kicker, is now you have to grind enemy kills to activate those abilities on a weapon you get before you take it into the crucible. It just wastes time and is stupid.

Before handing any bounties in, I'd always make sure I'd equip guns (and sometimes armour) that still needed upgrades. This usually gave them enough XP to be fully upgraded in one batch, despite not having used them in combat yet.

It's still a process, of course, but it can speed things up considerably. I've got a nice collection of upgraded green weapons that I have yet to use this way :)
