To everyone of you coming to the forums to post your "bring back Reforging" threads, please just stop and think this one through.
Reforging, despite potentially needing large piles of materials to use to spend time rolling for those perfect perks, began to ruin Crucible, and give everyone almost identical weapons. Now while many of these roll combinations may still be possible (yes, we've all seen someone already with a 280 shot package Party Crasher), they are far less common, and this is a GOOD thing.
But to my main point, and this is what would DRASTICALLY help calm down those wanting reforging back: [u][i]Bungie NEEDS to have a large blanket increase on legendary engram drop rates when the game detects a Guardian is already wearing all legendary gear.[/i][/u] I'm talking even upwards of a 20% boost. Very few players would tell you that they would mind the grind (aka playing) for more drops, if only the drops would actually come. Even after TTK, I can log hours and hours and hours and maybe walk away with 3 legendary engrams, all of which could just be garbage rolls.
Trust me that this is the solution we need, because it is clear that Bungie wants this to be a loot-driven, dungeon-crawler-esque style game with lots of loot. The catch is that piles of blue engrams aren't really helping those top end players whose only goal is better perks.
PLEASE BUMP, and STOP ASKING FOR REFORGING.
