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

1500+ up votes 3000+ replies [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: AJIc3CoLd said: "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". JoshLags said: "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". DE4THINC4RN4TE said: "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.)"

  • Bump. This game needs more variation and choices. Otherwise everyone just uses the same general gear and weapons. The customization sucks in this game with everything from character creation and color schemes to gear/weapon load outs.. Break freeee from the chaaaaains

  • Agreed. there is NO WHERE NEAR enough content for bungie to make things obsolete....especially after such a short and shitty raid.

  • Signed. Bump. Fate bringer. Vision of Confluence. Corrective Measure. I have every weapon in the game except thunder lord and I still use fate bringer and vision of confluence 90 percent of the time and the other 10 percent is the mythoclast. They really need to update these weapons and keep them relevant.

    • A 331 vision of confluence would be handy. I have no complaint there haha. I still use my 300 for pretty much everything including crucible but now I've got to figure out something to use for the hard raid( which right now looks like "the devil you don't" until I get something else) because the voc is going to be useless. I completely agree with upping the attach rating and light/defense rating.

    • The VOG is more difficult than crota's end anyway. There's no reason the more difficult raid should give useless rewards. Also take out ascendant shards as nightfall/ other reward opportunities. They are literally useless. I suspect in the next dlc ascendant + radiant shards/energy will be as useful as my cats litter box waste.

    • Bump. If you like the way VoG gear looks more than CE, you shouldn't be forced to wear CE gear. Every 32 of each class looks exactly the same minus one piece of gear.

    • Off the top of my head I think destiny could benefit from the use of radiant energy and shards to upgrade ALL raid gear. Like if you have vog gear that you want to keep like 5 years from now or from any other raid maybe have the option to use radiant mats to bump them to the new damage or armour cap much like what xur does with the old exotics. I dunno just a thought I don't expect anything to happen nor do I care if it changes or not just thought I'd throw an idea out there lol

    • If the rumours are true. When the Level 31 VoG comes out hopefully the weapons will be put upto 331. Here's hopeing.

      • I think VOG weapons should be raised to 323 instead of 33 so it's on the same level w/ the vex. Still an incentive the get the new DLC but still not sub-par to the newer weapons

      • They should implement a husk of the pit style system for all exotics and raid legendarily guns. This gives you an option to level up guns farther when you get a special item, or new content comes out. Maybe this just adds additional damage nodes. Maybe this re-rolls the weapon with new perks befitting the new level. Whatever the system just let us keep the raid and exotic guns we like. Otherwise they need to have viable replacements for all the existing guns. The Crota's end guns thus far don't do that for the vault of glass. And there are no where near enough exotics to replace the current set.
