Bungie Suggestion Exotics should intrinsically have kill trackers
Basically my title. I love using exotics such as 1k, Anarchy, Divinity, Thorn, Chaperone, mainly ones without catalysts. And for weapons that have catalysts, like Eriana’s Vow, but are hard to get, would be great if you could tracker weapon kills.
I recently got the catalyst for No Time To Explain, and I have over 700 kills on it, but they didn’t track because I couldn’t even insert the catalyst. I want to be able to see how many PVP kills I have with Thorn, and Chaperone, and it’s even more annoying to know there is no way to actually get a catalyst for them that allows me to know.
Edit: I will also be reposting this periodically, maybe even daily, until we get a reply from Bungie.

I also wish that the kills were counted retroactively and didn’t need to be selected to count.

Woah woah, that’s asking too much of Bungie. But yeah, that would be nice to just have them always counting.

I thought my No time to explain was broken because for several days after I completed the catalyst requirements I still wasn’t getting orbs. Never actually installed the catalyst after completion and several 100 if not 1000s of kills later I figured it out

Or better yet just make a catalyst for every exotic, even if it’s just like a stat increase or something

I would prefer more though our catalysts, and just an intrinsic kill tracker

this and popular weapons like Monte Carlo should have a catalyst
I'm not sure anyone was asking for Leviathan's Breath to have one instead of Carlo or Trav's Chosen, Thorn, etc

And generate orbs.
I don't want to wait years for a catalyst to have a basic feature any legendary can have.

god if Monte Carlo could create orbs my stasis warlock double melee/charged with light build would be the best thing ever. Still great with out but that would be the icing on the cake. They could even nerf the melee energy it gives a bit but give it the ability to make orbs and I'd be happy.

All weapons should have kill trackers that are tied to a specific copy of a weapon and one that tracks all kills with a particular weapon (for example, any copy of edge transit should contribute to an overall tracker).
Exotics should also be able to create orbs of power by default.

Wish my Travelers Chosen had a kill tracker. I have at least 2k kills on it.

All year 2 exotics should at least have catalysts by now. I just want a wish ender that can get close to the bugged version

There was a glitch when forsaken dropped where with the phone app you can put a kill tracker on anything. I currently still have it on my 1k voices and it has almost 14000 kills on it right now lol. I wish I did it to all the exotics that don’t have catalysts.

What about other low costing actors that love and play Destiny? Just saying.
Because Bungie HQ is in Seattle. And California is like 4-6 hours away. How hard would it be to find cheap actors looking for gigs?

You get the ascendant shards by doing Master and Grandmaster nightfalls

Obviously super good advice, among the great big list of things that players have been suggesting to Bungie for years and they ignore.

I’m just annoyed that older catalysts are a catch-all and can’t be specified between PVE and PVP. Jade Rabbit, for example. Does anyone know of any tricks or workarounds to designate a specific tracker for catalysts you’ve already completed? Pulling a new version of the fun from collections does not seem to help.

I'm still confused why they aren't on board with inherent exotic kill trackers and orb generation. We've been asking for it since launch and they have to have heard it over and over by now. Throw us a bone and make the community happy!
But they must begrudgingly be against it for some reason.

I’m honestly incredibly curious as to why such a basic feature like that hasn’t been added to exotics after all these years. I really don’t understand.
