Why can we not use the same trinket or skin in 2 different decks?

tl;dr: title.

Yes I know you can equip a trinket universally like before. But why can we not just equip the same trinket in different decks?

Also same with skins, I got a nice deagle skin but I can only equip it in 1 deck, but I have 2 mercs with a deagle loadout. Kinda sucks I have to choose between the 2

I think, restricting weapon skins has some logic in it: It’s supposed to be a somewhat rare cosmetic and this is emphasized by the fact, you can’t use it in more decks than the number of copies you own.
That being said, you cannot under any circumstances acquire multiple copies of the same trinket

Idk, sure something can be rare, but if it is rare, it should be worth going after. If something is rare but only useable on one card, then it loses a lot of the draw towards it.

It’s still rare whether or not you can use it on more than one card. It just means it’s more worth the money.

I mean, you can’t play two mercs at the same time. You don’t even need copies of the same skin for a weapon…

Exactly. It doesn’t achieve anything.
You can’t even equip the same trinket/skin on 2 decks for the same merc. I have 2 Aimee decks: 1 for FEL-IX and 1 for Grandeur.
I want to use the Skullsplitter on both of them, but I can’t. Like, how is it even possible to have both a Grandeur Aimee and FEL-IX Aimee in my squad at the same time?
And I can’t equip the deagle skin on the Grandeur deck because I have it equipped on Rhino

imo, if you’ve acquired a skin, why restrict it to just one merc deck

I guess this makes sense from a business perspective for SD, they want you to grind and buy moar. I kinda hate it too, smells like war gaming…:confused:

At most, have it restrict loadouts IN your squad.
