PETITION: VoG weapons at 331. Raids shouldn't be rendered irrelevant.

[You guys came up with so many great ideas. I really wish Bungie had a look at the comments here.]
[b]Come on, Bungie, give us the freedom to choose whatever suits our style best and don't let those awesome weapons you've designed become obsolete. Actually, don't let the stunning Vault of Glass (best content in the game) be consumed by the darkness.
I believe that Raids and its weapons should always be the at level cap. More weapons to choose from, more content to play.
Weapons are mostly situational and mixing them is part of a successful strategy (it's fun too). Having more to choose from just add to the game.
Edit: I'm not suggesting to automatically turn them into 331 attack weapons. Just give us a way to upgrade them to the current attack cap. I bet you guys can implement it in a sensible way.
Why would we go against the idea of having more relevant weapons at our disposal? It's like saying "I'd rather have less weapons, less content". Let's not be passively attached to an old format. Destiny is something new with immense potential.[/b]
=====================
Some great comments Bungie should pay some attention to:

"But what they decide to do with VOG weapons speaks to the future of the current raid weapons as well. Right now, there is an expiration date on my Fatebringer and that sucks, supremely, but now that same feeling isn't too far for my Black Hammer either. I'd like to carry these weapons with me as long as I am playing Destiny. Yeah, future weapons maybe better and I end up scraping these guns one day but I'd like to be able to decide for myself versus having no choice in the matter. Just my take on the situation".

"The problem lies within the way they have designed the upgrading system. They are going to have to re work how you upgrade weapons and armor. Yeah they could just update the VOC gear up to 32 and 331 but what happens when the House of Wolves comes out? Then they are going to have to update both Dark Below and VOC all over again the prevent them from being obsolete. They need to just make it were the players can choose the path they want to take. You choose what armor and weapons you want to upgrade to the highest rank. I mean make it a difficult task. I wouldn't mind the challenge and it would inspire players to be more creative with their characters rather than every single person wearing the same gear".

"Upgrading older legendary weapons could finally give a use for the Gunsmith beyond buying ammo and weapons at a low level. Not to mention it would help provide a larger variety of "good" weapons so that we would have more things to work towards. After all the various DLC's are done, just imagine how varied the weapon and armor selection would be. (Speaking of which, vendors should be able to upgrade armor as well.)"

2 RepliesWhat would be the point of the new raid handcannon if fatebringer got buffed to 331.

Yea, definitely, its not like any other games leave behind old raid gear stats wise when newer stuff comes out. [spoiler]Every loot grind RPG does this. Its a mechanic built into the game..on purpose.[/spoiler]

Bump, signed, licked, and stamped with my thumb print in blood

5 RepliesMore uses for the crux of Crota. I think we should be able to use the crux of crota to upgrade old raid gear to the new light and damage caps.

Here, here!

You clearly fail to realize our masters at bungee have to obligation to acknowledge our existence it would seem.

1 ReplyEdited by BrrWinter: 1/8/2015 1:37:34 PMThey should have all the raids to be equal on level, equal on attack and equal on light on the armor as well. Just because they made level 31 really easy to get by vanguard&Crucible Thats the only way to have everyone look theyre own way and be truly legendary.

1 ReplyClearly limiting progress based upon investment. They can still follow that line whilst showing love to vog specific weapons. At the very least take them up to 315 or something. Might as well get a reward for completing the hardest challenge in the original game.
-
1 ReplyThey need to do something to tempt people into playing the VOG otherwise nobody will play it.

1 ReplyBump. I would link to see my VOC in my hands through the House of Wolves DLC.
-
If you're using the weapon and it still works good for you then, [spoiler]it's not obsolete or irrelevant[/spoiler]
-
I feel like this is a good idea but not right away because if as soon as Crota's End came out Raid gear allowed you to get to Lvl 32 you wouldn't need to play Crota's End at all. It needs to happen like two or three months after the next raid comes out.

Edited by GlitchySnow: 1/10/2015 5:46:05 PMIts Funny...all these post about VOG Primary weapons before CE Primary weapons are released. People are -blam!-ing idiots lol Asking for the NEW content to lose some of its swagger. Literally in a sense. Wait for the NEW PRIMARY WEAPONS to be released. Yea, Of course the VOG Primary weapons are still lusted after because There is no replacement....yet. Just wait for CE hard mode. LoL

Edited by lnfected Cookie: 1/10/2015 5:37:08 PMI agree with this, but I think they should just be automatically upgraded. I don't really want to try and obtain/upgrade 3 fatebringers etc again.

Nope bungie has to do it wrong first and then they'll release a patch with DLC to make themselves look like heros. I'm so tired of all these patches, I don't understand why such a "great" studio has so many things wrong or missing within their game. A great studio would make a perfect game upon release day and not have all these pathetic patches to install because they carelessly made a video game from scratch in just 2 years.

At least VoG exotics are up to 331 now

1 ReplyBump. I was quite deflated when I learned that raid weapons I am still trying to get will be nigh-useless in the new endgame and will be a joke just three months after that. Sure, I like my Last Word, but maybe give an option to upgrade a previous tier raid weapon with a hard raid part, and make the new upgrade tree require new raid materials.

1 ReplyPlease listen bungie, we need more relevant content! This demolition of all of the old raid's relevance is creating another issue.

1 ReplyI find it amazing how they spent all this time creating the raid that is now redundant. I cannot imagine they will even think about keeping vault I'd glass how it is currently.
