This is not a hate post this is simply my opinion. Leading into year 2 it has become apparent that we may be losing some of our Year 1 exotics. This is all for good reason, Bungie has addressed this in videos saying that if there is ever a clear choice on how to go about doing something, aka use Ghorn for every boss on every DLC, it will be nerfed, they even said this before the release of Destiny. The idea of being able to ascend armor and weapons in HoW was a great idea, however, it took away from the DLC [b]IMMENSELY[/b], how? Why would anyone play PoE for elemental primaries when they are easily outclassed by old ascended raid weapons. Fatebringer or Six Dreg Pride? Easily Fatebringer. Theres no need to try and grind for new weapons in HoW because many of the old weapons outclass them, without ascension some of these new HoW weapons might actually be viable. Now lets say Bungie would allow us to take year 1 legendaries and exotics into year 2. Wha would you go into the raid with? Probably all year 1 weapons. Then there would be more complaints on the forums that TTK weapons are useless and that TTK is a waste of money. Leaving behind year 1 weapons is not a bad thing. It is starting a new chapter for our characters, a new chapter in Destiny, and Bungie is aware that we cherish our year 1 items and we worked hard for them, and they are probably doing their best to replace them with new year 2 weapons. The problem with threads like this is that people are too quick to assume, we have yet to play TTK, what if there are new weapons that are just as good as guns like Fatebringer and Ghorn? Do you think Bungie would purposely make the community upset by making some of the year 1 content unupgradeable without a plan to replace it somehow? All and all, everyone needs to relax, the world will not end because we cant use Fatebringer for another year. Im sorry if this post offended anyone that was not the intention.

  • They should have just kept the patten of leaving shit behind every DLC , the fact that they bought everything back in house of wolves only for everything to be useless again just baffles me .

  • I think that is true except for exotics, however I feel like all Year 1 exotics should stay in their place and let new Year 2 exotics take over. I think the reason they let us ascend all of our weapons in HoW instead of not leaving them the same is because of the amount of people that wanted to see weapons like Fatebringer and VoC was enormous. But I think they realized that this was probably a mistake and is why we arent seeing ascension continuing into Y2

  • legendaries are one thing but exotics are a different story. you can only equip one, therefore they would expand the variety of gear being used if the options for that one slot was huge. gally and thorn got a nerf so a lot of weapons could easily compete with them making the verity even bigger. leaving exotics behind is dumb and they will hit the brick wall where everyone uses the same exotics again and it'll be year one all over again and it will be a never ending cycle of fail and crucible crying. seems obvious to me and a week into TTK everyone will look the same just like house of wolves lol. all I can say is if they stick to this decision, the amount of weapons and armor for lvl 40 better be insane.

  • Yes Gally is getting a nerf, but it could still easily compete with new exotics and possibly out compete them. Yes there is a possibility that there will be new OP exotics like Ghorn or Thorn, but the point is we wont be using Ghorn until Y7 of Destiny

    a simple weapon balance could fix that and could have already once we see what the gally nerf is like. I mean worked to get everyone was using auto rifles, and now we have a much more variety is crucible than it was at the beginning. if the variety isn't big enough it'll just be a new gun that takes its place. variety is everything and taking things away will be a massive mistake if they do not have a huge variety of things coming to take their place, and I mean HUGE, well balanced, amazing armory to make it okay. if everyone doesn't look the same at level 40 a month after the game drops then my opinion will definitely change, and I hope it does, but destiny just doesn't have a history of creating a armory large enough to make there decisions productive. couldn't type for shit typing that lol

  • No worries, about the typing. But Bungie has already said that the armory released in TTK will be bigger than base game. They did nerf autorifles, and if you remember theyve also put nerfs on handcannons and they are still the most prominent weapons in crucible. Just simply nerfing weapons wont cause them to be balanced, even if Ghorn is not being upgraded as a year 2. You can still use it, it will still be a possibility, just no longer the best

  • true. I could care less about gjally, but there are more unique guns that will be sad to see go and I would hate to see a lack in variety of guns and also unique guns for that matter. 1 million suros guns with only one perk different than the other means nothing, ya know. I'll have to see what they mean by huge armory

  • have you seen sleeper simulant in action? Does it look -blam!-ing useless? I want my -blam!-ing necrochasm to be worth a damn

  • I have, it looks awesome, there was even a reddit user who calculated the damage and even though it cant be confirmed until we use it in game, he said it could do more than Ghorn. I do agree that Necrochasm should be buffed further and should be usable

    This is what I was trying to say in my comment seriously you never see a prison of elders weapon being used at all I mean really be honest have you played prison of elders and seen one person use the poe weapons but instead use fate bringer vision of confluence ,and something tells me the same thing will happen with taken king years from now. The only thing I hope for now is that the bosses won't be bullet sponges #Y.G
