“The last thing we wanted was for you to look at your favorite gun or helmet and decide that it had become obsolete.

Confusion intensified. I rushed to update our blog with some more granular information. When coveted weapons are at stake, misinformation cannot stand (man), hence the hasty typing. Amidst the flurry of activity, to make the morning even better, I delivered this gem to the Internet:
Let’s talk about why this is the worst Tweet I have ever sent in my life:
I am Tweeting at myself, like a crazy person
The issue is not linked for maximum confusion
The genuine article “is” should be “are”
It looks like I’m telling the player they are wrong
Let me get this straight. The player is never “wrong.” I believe that down to my bones. At Bungie, I represent to the developers what you say without prejudice. Lesson learned: Never Tweet when you’re in a hurry.
Sorry about the confusion. What do you say, Internet. Still want to be friends? If so, join me in an exploration of our plans in greater detail.
So... What lesson did u learn from TDB's mistakes? It looks like you didn't learn a thing except lets trash nearly every exotic because we hate our own creation of Gjallarhorn. Learn to separate the two and not penalize every player into leaving their exotics behind due to one OP weapon you made OP. NERF it and let's keep our treasures in this weapon loot based game.

Bump Save our exotics This "new" exotic upgrade program sure sounds familiar. [b]Taken King exotic upgade:[/b] Find a old exotic, go to the tower vendor (blueprint kiosk), pay large sum of currency (150 marks) and get a higher damage [i]UN-Leveled[/i] version of that exotic. .....that's now painted black and may have slightly different perks [b]Dark Below exotic upgade:[/b] Find a old exotic, go to tower vedor (Xur on weekend), pay large sum of currency (7000 glim and 1 shard), and get a higher damage [i]UN-Leveled[/i] version of that exotic Hmmmmmm. Let's see what Bungie had to say about that last year after players hated it: [quote][b]Bungie Weekly Update - 12/04/2014[/b] by DeeJ “The last thing we wanted was for you to look at your favorite gun or helmet and decide that it had become obsolete.
