Armor Core Changes

Annoyed and disappointed in the armor core idea. The fact I grinded for a skin (Willow Tea) that is unusable with the current battle pass unlocks is ridiculous. The first 2 cores should merge and the Tenrai should stand alone as it is significantly different. Visors and coatings should absolutely not be limited to a single core. Probably been stated but this needs to be changed ASAP.

There is little excuse to restrict armor between cores, and there is no excuse in locking coatings and visors behind cores, this entire core system is too restrictive & needs change.

I don’t dislike at all the idea of basic underlying cores- it’s wicked cool that we are able to customize on the Mk V [B] platform as well as the visually excellent new Mk VII, and that variety has the potential to grow and allow us to customize on other awesome legacy, fan favorite armor platforms as well as new and exciting ones. That basic concept is really cool, IMO.

It is entirely ruined by the inability to cross-core customize, though. Simply doing away with that element for as many armor components as possible- especially for coatings and visors- would radically improve fan outlook on this customization suite in one single instance. Of course, there are plenty of other problems to address, but bringing cross-core into the picture would be a massive step in the right direction.

I’d also stipulate that I think it makes sense that some of the radically different Fractures armor cores like Yorai might not be awesome cross-core candidates for many reasons- leaving technical feasibility off the table entirely, I don’t know that many/most of the Mk V and VII armor pieces would look at all appropriate and appealing on the Yorai core, and vice versa. Even with instances like this, though, armor coatings and visors shouldn’t be arbitrarily locked to specific cores. At least allow players to rock some of their event swag on whatever their main armor core of choice is.
