You can call it lazy if you want, but don't expect everyone to take your approach on it. Yes, I'm applauding them. I'm applauding them hard as I can for making old weapons obsolete, just like they should be against this new, stronger threat. I'd be extremely bored if Destiny Year Two was just a lot of running around with Fatebrings, Vision of Confluences, and Word of Crotas again while making sure you packed your gjalleys. And I see no (good) reasoning here. What I see is someone complaining because they cant use their old weapons on the new threats, and the icing here is saying give me a reason, while simultaneously saying dont give me these (very real) reasons. No, I don't have a kid. I don't need to to spot a tantrum. EDIT: Lazy approach? And I thought the oP wasn't making much sense, you're even worse. No shit new, strong enemies take less damage from Year One LEVEL TWENTY weapons. We are now LEVEL FOURTY guardians, with enemies obviously scaled to match. TELL ME IN WHAT -blam!-ING UNIVERSE IT MAKES SENSE FOR A LEVEL TWENTY WEAPON TO RIP THROUGH LEVEL FOURTY ENEMIES
