The fact that people could Ascend just about anything, and reroll Legendary weapons.
Combined, it means people just use one of the same handful of weapons and whatever gear they can get max light on the fastest. And Done.
Therefore, less diversity.
I'm sure when they said "Let's let them ascend purple weapons" they assumed that would increase diversity as people would use some weapon that they like but others hated. I mean there are hundreds of Legendary weapons out there.
Instead it became "Instruction Manual - Get Weapon A, Reroll until you get perks X/Y/Z, win" Over and over. Min-Max to roll the best possible weapon.
Now most Warlocks look the same, and a large % run with one of the same 4 or 5 legendary primaries

Again Bungies fault for not being creative. By limiting what you can bring in year 2 you are guaranteeing the same problem to happen again.

Jesus Christ you're thick. Bungie is at a fault here, but the community is more to blame for this problem. We are forcing Bungie to play a different card.

How? If Bungie would have made guns that were better and had more variety of guns in the beginning, we wouldnt even be having this discussion. In my eyes Bungie are people and the community is a gun , and we all know a gun doesnt kill the person behind it does.

Edited by KannibalKlown: 8/25/2015 3:43:52 PMNot if they do a better job at balancing things out or preventing making the most OP gun That's a [u]BIG *if*[/u] and I'm [u]not[/u] saying they will succeed. But it's possible that they could try to make it so year-2 guns are more balanced out and you can't turn a gun with high-impact/low-stability into a high-impact/high-stability/fully-automatic visage of death. There will always be min/maxers, you can't prevent that. But if you make it TOO easy to min/max then everyone is going to do it because A) it's easy and B) you want to be able to compete against min-maxers Throwing away the old kit COULD be a way to simple say "OK let's start from scratch and prevent them from making the PERFECT-stat guns again"
