"Become legend" they said. Look at your favorite characters in movies, comics, anime, etc. When the hero/villain has a weapon of amazing power that they are known for carrying the weapon itself becomes part of the character. They don't just toss it aside. King Arthur wouldn't be King Arthur without Excalibur. Thor has to have his hammer. Nightmare wields The Soul Edge. I love my damn Hard Light, and you can't expect me to just move on to a new shiny weapon. In my group of friends I am known for using the hard light, and using it effectively. Its been my favorite weapon ever since I first fired it. It's been a close friend and has served me well. It's part of my guardian, so if it cannot progress neither can I. I already preordered months ago, so I am stuck here clinging to the vain hope that my treasured friend will be able to accompany me. I know it won't, but I am just praying they will offer some way to bring it along. So much for them not wanting us to look at gear and weapons as obsolete.
