Look letting go is hard but you'll find another that's even better
No one gets emotionally attached to khvostov and do you know why? It's inferior. But that was the gun that I used to single handedly slay my first archon priest. That's as much tied to [i]my[/i] legend as my messenger adept
I'm happy for you that you've found your soul mate even if it's in a gun but the only reason that gun lasted you so long is because there wasn't jack shit to do in this game that it couldn't handle even when it couldn't be ascended, and now even more so when it could
But if Crotas end had increased the level cap by more than 2 you probably would have dismantled it already because I guarantee a non raid level 30 legendary would not fare well in a level 35 raid the way destiny was set up
Part of the whole becoming legend thing is collecting loot that's even better than what you used to use
If you are that attached put it in your vault as a trophy
Stop complaining that your level 20 won't still be relevant at level 40 because this is an rpg and few gear is ever lucky enough to be relevant 20 levels later in an rpg and go out and find gear that's even better and fall in love all over again

RPGs have the concept of Signature Gear. Your ancestral sword never becomes obsolete. The spaceship you won in poker game will never become scrap. If you wanted to ascend the khostav or stranger's rifle, I think you should be able to. That would be extremely cool. And no, I'm not interested in finding something "better". I have 4 or more pulse rifles from HoW that are at least as good, and reforgable to boot. I don't use them much. The legend of my guardian is inseparable from the legend of his weapon. That's what a legendary weapon is, after all, a weapon that is the focus of legends. And if I can't take it into Destiny's "brave new world", then I have no interest in going. Do I mind sacrificing other opportunities to make that happen? Not a bit. I'll happily shard five new primary legendaries to keep my signature weapon relevant. Do I mind a small, hard limit on the number of legacy items a character can advance? Perhaps as the end goal of a tough quest to earn the privilege? Again, I don't mind a bit. But I'm not going to grab my ankles at BOHICA, and ask if I can have another.

Edited by ValiantBlu: 8/6/2015 5:11:11 AMYou're right RPGs do have a concept of signature gear But they also don typically increase the level cap by 20 in one expansion And if they do, take borderlands for example You're "signature gear" becomes quickly obsolete That doesn't mean you bitch and moan about it That means you get excited for the next cool gun that's about to fall into your lap Edit: trust me in no time you'll be playing this game and all of a sudden be like "man I had some good times with that pulse rifle" and then proceed to gun down a horde of thrall with your new pulse rifle that you love just as much as you did that one But right now you sound like a small child who's whining because they got a new toy instead of having the old one, broken beyond repair, fixed

Call it whining all you want. If I can't take at least some of my gear with me, I'm walking. That is a deal breaker for me. I play this game for entertainment. For fun. Losing the gear that I've put more time into than I care to think about, is the opposite of that. You don't find it a big deal. Party on. That you're excited about the next big thing doesn't bother me a bit. Which is why the announcement is so perplexing. Pretty much all players will be eager to check out the new weapons, so why eliminate the old ones? For a majority of players, the shortage of vault space will largely take care of that without outside interference. Without pissing off those of us who treasure the old weapons. Heck, most of those weapons won't even be new. Much like the celebrated Hopscotch is a reskinned Super Pox that's reforgable.

Stop blowing smoke if you're [i]that[/i] attached to a gun there's no way you're not equally attached, if not more, to the game itself

I've walked away from Destiny before. I can do it again. My wife would certainly appreciate it if I did.

And yet, here you are Again
