why are enhanced perks so pathetic?

[jimmy]

i understand that they're trying to maintain balance and not make craftable weapons 10 times better than normal weapons because of the enhanced perks but cmon bungie, 1% increase in ability regen for enhanced demolitionist? or an extra 1 second for duration based perks like slice at least make it a 5% increase or 2 second increase.
im my personal opinion it should be a 10% increase for perks like demolitionist when enhanced and 3 seconds for time based perks like slice so it would be actually worth it to invest a lot in crafted weapons not just for the border of the gun to be gold

The difference between 10% and 11% is literally a 10% increase

enhanced perks are rubbish

depends of the perks. as an exampel explosive light gets a huge buff from 6 to 7 stacks which is way more than 10% improvement.

You said it youself
It's to maintain balance.

Otherwise bungie would balance out other aspects like global cooldowns which would be worse.

The change between normal and enhanced perks is so min/max it ultimately makes no sense for most players.

And then factor in the cost to do it and it's ridiculous.

Funny about enhanced perk but some of them doesn't seem to work as should for example 'Unrelenting' it does not speed up health regeneration. Tested doing legendary Lightfall campaign mission alone.

Because all Enhanced unrelenting does is grant you 70 healing instead of 65, it doesn't speed up health regeneration

This is exactly right; Enhanced Perks can be ignored without consequences. It's a system that is long overdue for a revamp in my opinion.
