Lol, at the people who value virtual gear on their virtual characters in a video game. Look, I see where you are coming from, you want the time you spent in year 1 to still be worth something. But I don't think you see the issue with allowing year 1 gear to be brought up to year 2 levels. Year 1 weapons like VoC, Fatebringer, and any other perfectly rerolled weapons would break the way Destiny is today. Most year 1 weapons are from a time when Destiny was a way bigger mess than it is now, and when Bungie was still working things out. Weapons like Fatebringer were so good that there was no reason to use any other weapon of its type (for example with Fatebringer, a legendary handcannon). Bungie wants variety in players loadouts. Its not really fun when everybody has the same loadout (usually Fatebringer, Blackhammer, and Gjallerhorn).
