Its...All interesting, but the problem is power creep. Guns are already pretty brokenly overpowered as they are, there's very little strategy rather than "Spray people down".
I'd say it'd work just fine if they could only be applied to a weapon that isn't godlike or higher AND doesn't have any traits/suffixes?
Another issue is that, once again, a suggestion like this just adds more value to everything primordial or higher. What happened to legendary guns? People only use a very, very few select amount of them, and they're not considered good. Everything is "super op prims" or godlikes, of which are a dime-a-dozen. That's power creep. Of course, it was eventual, but look at the recent Galactic fiasco; - A tier with Lightweight's mobility, Heroic damage/-and the only negative stat being a bit of stability? Power creep. If you also noticed, I didn't exactly "Disagree" with Spiderpig, because I think the suggestions are fine in and of themselves, but their application seems terrible. Maybe we could focus on making lower-tiered guns more interesting to players with interesting utilization's? There have already been multiple good suggestions that people don't like because "they're not high tier enough". Evidently, a gun can't be cool or interesting unless its Primordial or higher.
And @Dreadark "I feel like that wouldn't work. I don't think people would really care. And even then it would just improve legendaries, just slightly, and nothing else because nobody is gonna put one on an unlikely or rare when they can just as easily put one on a legendary. Plus it seems like just unnecessarily handicapping primordials for being a higher tier. I agree with not allowing them on godlikes though."
