The game becomes stale for you.
You don't feel satisfied with the loot anymore.
It's the contrary for me. Hunting weapons for rolls, is absolutely obnoxious as an activity.
With the drop rates of legendaries and the mostly worthless perks that are available, the grind is tiring.
Thus I simply rerolled my Y1 weapons again and got what I wanted.
Without that, I would play even less.
(and I play by far less than before already)
I will also disagree with the notion of god rolls not being as prevalent.
This is absolutely untrue, and the current system which doesn't allow for rerolling of Y2 weapons, further helps in spreading imbalances.
I detached myself from that issue, through using Y1 guns.
Be it a Spear, a Matador, or a lucky roll Against All Odds with Crowd Control.
Grinding for PvP weapons with PvP perks is one of the things that made this game less enjoyable.
Not even talking about Crucible Weapon Drop rates (which are allegedly a bug. Something I do not believe however, given the current state of Destiny's economy).
If weapons would be easily attainable and rerollable, I might be willing to use them.
But praying to RnGeeZus, for a usable roll is not satisfying in the least.
The only Y2 weapons I use are the Raid LMG and the Conspiracy Theory.
(this whole post had solely the PvP in mind and talked about legendary weapons, not exotics)

That's what arms day is for: you want a weapon? Wait until its package is available, then you get a choice of 3 rolls of the same weapon. It's not perfect, but it's better than year 1. This topic is super subjective though, so let's leave it as my opinion and yours.

Edited by Killlerschaf: 11/9/2015 2:32:34 PMWhere it becomes subjective, is what you prefer. You like the grind, and I hate it by now. I am not a fan of relativism, and would probably question a person's mental sanity, if said person actually enjoys the grind, but what is enjoyable and what not, is a relative thing. What's not debatable however, is that rerolling helps to balance the PvP. This is absolutely logical when you see it in more abstract terms: Everybody running around with the same OP weapons, means that nobody has an OP weapon. Because everyone plays the same weapons, which are already at the top of the food chain, we actually have a balanced environment. (which doesn't mean that these weapons don't break the intended design the dev had in mind. But when a player with a Thorn and a Felwinter faces another player with a Thorn and a Felwinter, it instantly becomes a skill match up) Arms Day is the cheap version of rerolling, with mostly terrible weapon choices. The only 2 interesting guns are a Lyudmilla with Counter Balance and another stability perk on top and the Eirene Sniper with luck in the chamber. Everything else is pretty meh.

But that's the thing; I would say that there are favourable perk loadouts for each person, but no over-arching "this is the best perk setup for everyone". I don't necessarily enjoy the grind either. I do want drops to mean something as I continue to play the game however. I'm more willing to try different weapons and weapon types of I haven't constructed the perfect primary straight out of the gate. So yes, it is subjective. What we see as the perfect way for the loot-game to flow will differ from person to person. I believe that it adds to the experience, since it encourages a multitude of loadouts, but that's just me.
