Another case of bungie trying to keep players on the hamster wheel with another carrot to grind for, and trying to bait returning players into buying their overpriced dlc by removing the power limits rendering their old loot useless. Problem with that decision is they just made the people that did delete their sunset gear thinking it’ll never be good again feel betrayed. People that aren’t happy that they deleted their sunset weapons thinking they will never come back are pretty justified. Especially when in some cases of grinding days sometimes weeks for that specific roll. Most people too also had no choice to delete old gear since bungie refuses to increase vault space after so many years of expansions increasing our potential loot to earn. But that’s a whole other can of worms. Then to add salt to the wound bungie reverses that decision years long after we could have recovered our weapons and instead of out right giving players the weapons back via collections or crafting they instead are just going to add them back to be earned again most likely via another long and tediously difficult activity (yes better than nothing, but the principle of them advising us to delete sunset gear then back pedaling that decision is why people are upset and feel betrayed because now we have no sunset loot to enjoy). I personally think bungie shot themselves in the foot with this decision as so many players deleted gear thinking it’ll never come back and the only players happy are the ones that kept stuff. But that’s just the bandaid coming off response from the community after coming to terms with never using that gear again. Sunsetting never should have happened and bungie needs to start respecting players, the loot the ground for (stop nerfing things to the ground is a start), and the time investment players put into things.
