Of course I used them at 300; because [i]I had no choice[/i]. It doesn't change the fact that it still annoyed me to no end. Bungie gave us the eventual ability to upgrade those weapons, though; like I said in my post, that was the reason I've been happy with the gear system up until this point, because you had to work for it, but there's the [i]potential[/i] to keep them current, if players chose to go the extra mile for it. My one big complaint so far was that I think Etheric Light is WAY too easy to obtain, almost laughably so. I hope Bungie brings back a system that continues the ability to "ascend" weapons, but simply makes it harder to do.
