All good I had no problems reading your comment. However I am specifically talking about year 1 exotics coming to year 2, not year 1 legendaries which is what the community is generally in favor of. Most of the community can agree legendaries can be left behind. Also, if you remember from the weapon tuning patch that is coming up they are going to be nerfing Gjallarhorn and Thorn to a great degree. They will also be nerfing the general stats of handcannons and other aspects of certain weapons as well as buffing the stats of other weapons. Link to the weapon tuning patch below: https://www.bungie.net/en/News/News?aid=13147 Ultimately exotics should not be left behind because they were too "overpowered". Exotics can easily be buffed or changed to become more valuable and useful to players or nerfed to become more balanced and fair against other weapons. If Bungie is going to be far more regular in updating exotics with buffing and nerfing. This will help create a balanced PvP and PvE environment to ensure that there is no "god weapon", except maybe for one weapon in TTK which they want to be like Gjallarhorn for a while. Even still the result of Gjallarhorn being "overpowered" was a result of Bungie's boss design not the players fault for having such a high demand and high use of Gjallarhorn on these bosses. They made them nothing but bullet sponges that walked around and did long distance damage so that made Gjallarhorn the best weapon to go to. With just some changes to how boss fights work, Gjallarhorn would not become the weapon of choice and it really would not be that difficult to implement those changes. Finally in regards to bringing year 1 exotics forward, if the player wants to use the same exotics for the full 10 years of the game why should anyone stop them from doing so? If they are having fun using those exotics why should they be forced to leave them behind? The whole purpose of this game to "make yourself legend" so why can't legends have the same exotics that they themselves find dependable and their weapon of choice. If you want to move on and play with the new stuff then go right on ahead, but all players should not be forced to do same. They have spent too long investing their time to get and upgrade their exotics to give them up at this point they are the central core of this game and should never be made irrelevant.
