Vanilla vs. HoW exotic
Hey Gang
I'm newly back to the game after a bit of an absence so I apologize in advance if my post is pedantic. I have a piece of exotic armor (Voidfang Vestments) that I bought and max-upgraded prior to any expansions. I see that Xur currently sells the same piece of gear but with much better stats. I also see that I am able to upgrade my piece with an Exotic Shard to a "Defense value...to the highest available in Year 1". This makes it seem like doing the Exotic Shard upgrade would do nothing since I've already maxed it out...is this right?
If so, I need to re-buy the same piece of armor from Xur and re-level it...?
Thanks in advance Dads!

Hello, What the previous statement failed to describe in simplest terms was that to upgrade; you'd need to dismantle an exotic, or buy one from Xúr,which can be found in various locations as you may know. Once obtained, you'll need to have spare glimmer and an item of sorts say spin metal. Then on the left hand side it will have the option to "ascend". I rather over explain than not enough. Hope I wasn't too redundant. -Godspeed
