Hey community so it's been confirmed that Year two brings fourth a brand new arsenal for us to play with in the Taken King. This means year one legendaries will be outclassed in more ways than one in the new content. However I feel that in an effort to keep year one raids relevant moving forward all raid weapons should be able to be ascend to the current maxed damage. I believe this is a fair trade off. However
I DO NOT believe all year one legendaries should be able to be ascended. The raids are such a staple in destiny's gameplay I feel that these weapons specifically should be a viable option for combat situations moving forward. It would be a shame that these great experiences lose less and less momentum as time passes cause no one needs anything from them.
