No. 'Most' do not. This is the first game I've ever heard having an upgrade option for old loot.

    do your homework before you post next time. Finall Fantasy 14 had 3 weapon upgrades for your original weapon, also vendor weapons can be upgraded at least once. Now back to Destiny, If they dont want to upgrade them. Why isnt the vex mythoclast upgraded like the other exotics They gave the option for weapon upgrades. There is no harm in adding quests to upgrade raid weapons.

  • I didn't need to do homework. I said most don't. And I said I hadn't heard of a game that allowed you to upgrade weapons and armor after a level cap increase. I never played FF14. I didn't have the money when it came out(either time it was released).

    Let me ask you a question Isnt it nice to be able to upgrade your old raid weapons? Would you like them to be upgraded? Regardless of other games and how they work. Thats the point of this thread. If you want my openion about this subject I really dont care much for the raid weapons. I do like using a Fatebringer all the time and for sure will replace it with the hard mode Hand cannon when bungie decides to release crotas end hard mode and drops the weapon for me. In the mean time we can dream of an upgrade for old vog weapons which isnt going to happen anyway from the way things are going

  • It would be nice, sure. The issue with having an upgrade system in place for the old raid weapons and armor would defeat the purpose of earning new armor and weapons to challenge the new raid, or of even doing the new raid if you already were able to get the new max level using your old armor. I can definitely see an upgrade coming to the VoG itself that would increase the armor and weapons received from it to the higher level cap. Just after Crota's end has been out for a while. This keeps old content relevant and doesn't defeat the purpose of doing the new raid.

    Final fantasy 14 zodiac relic weapon upgrade could take you 5 hours to 20 hours to unlock first upgrade which only prepares your weapon for the next upgrade to make it a higher level. Second quest will take you 30 hours Third quest could take weeks. All this to upgrade. It is frustrating and yet it is a nice addition to be able to continue using your old weapons if you like them. This was not the case when ff14 was first released. They added the option after the release of the second raid for their game

  • That's pretty sweet. I would love something like this. Problem with a system that could take weeks is most of Destiny's player base are 'casuals' and Bungie has designed the game to be a challenge to that type of player. None of the content is particularly challenging unless you're not paying attention. The forums are already rife with complaints about how hard it is to have to relevel an exotic after upgrading it. Bungie is trying to walk the line between challenging content and making sure less-than-hardcore players feel like they have access to all of the game. Know what I mean?

  • I thought xur was the casual players vendor who gives them exotics!

    So you say that "most" MMO's have a way to upgrade your old gear bit you can only name one? Destiny and EVE Online are the only two I can think of on top of what your you mentioned. Out of all of the MMO's out there I'd dare say that three doesn't constitute as "most".

    wow you mentioned a 10 year old game against a game that is not even half an year old. go play current mmo's please! also stop being negative and saying things such as most does not count as 3, games evolve, i don't want destiny to follow any other mmo, if they allow gun upgrades it will be a nice addition. so don't go and say other mmos phase out weapon after new raids come, that is not a Holy rule to follow, therefor Bungie should evolve the game and make our hard earned weapons timeless i can name you 4 games that let you upgrade your original weapon multiple times, they give it to you as an option or to get the latest from the raids come back to me when you play current mmo's
