Destiny 2: The Witch Queen introduced a new method of obtaining weapons that still kept the grind but made it easier to get desired rolls. However, Bungie's recent news post shared upcoming changes for weapon crafting based on player feedback.

Bungie said that players are reaching the maximum amount of crafting materials quickly--making it an inconvenience. Hotfix 4.0.0.4 releasing on March 22 will increase the cap of element materials from 250 to 1,000. Neutral Element will be capped at 10,000 instead of 8,500. Players can get these currencies by completing the attunement on Deepsight Resonance weapons--the ones with the red border--and extracting its resources.

When Season 17 comes around, the following materials will be removed entirely: Adroit, Drowned, Energetic, Mutable, and Ruinous elements. However, players will still need Neutral Element for crafting.
