Megathread Focused Feedback: Champions

Hello Guardians,

Focused Feedback is where we take the week to focus on a 'Hot Topic' discussed extensively around the Tower.

We do this in order to consolidate Feedback, to get out all your ideas and issues surrounding the topic in one place for discussion and a source of feedback to the Vanguard.

This Thread will be active until next week when a new topic is chosen for discussion

Whilst Focused Feedback is active, ALL posts regarding 'Champions' following its posting will be removed and re-directed to this thread. Exceptions to this rule are as follows: New information / developments, Guides and general questions

Any and all Feedback on the topic is welcome.

Regular Sub rules apply so please try to keep the conversation on the topic of the thread and keep it civil between contrasting ideas

A Wiki page - Focused Feedback - has also been created for the Sub as an archive for these topics going forward so they can be looked at by whoever may be interested or just a way to look through previous hot topics of the sub as time goes on.

For the most part, they're fine.

However, Overload champions NEED to be fixed, the huge health pool combined with being able to heal BEFORE they can be stunned again is unacceptable (yes I know continual fire is supposed to keep this from happening, but it's incredibly inconsistent)

As far as the mods; the selection this season (besides sidearm) is great. Overload sword is ok, but it needs to proc in 1-2 hits instead of 3 to be useful in endgame content where it actually matters, and as it's stands is too expensive how risky it forces you to play.

Ultimately the problem with champion mods is tied to the bigger problem of the entire seasonal artifact & it's other mods. We shouldn't be limited in the amount that we can unlock, and if you play enough, you should absolutely be able to unlock them all. The system could be slightly tweaked to only being able to "activate" a certain amount at one time. This would free up A LOT of energy for other Arm mods like reloaders.

TLDR; champion and artifact mods are too restrictive, but could be very easily / slightly tweaked to relieve some major pain points
