So we already know that if you want to have your Exotic more powerful, you'll have to hand it to Xur for 1 Exotic shard and get a new one reset. Many people don't like this (me included), after wasting so much time to farm for materials, shards to upgrade them just to hand them over at the cost of 7 strange coins/Exotic Shard. I don't really care about the reset but what I agree is that we wasted a lot of time upgrading these exotics, THE LEAST they could do is, if your Exotic is fully upgraded, you don't need to use an Exotic Shard, I have more than 700 hours played across 3 characters level 30, that's a lot of time I could have spent on doing other things, but I played Destiny, because I loved it, because I knew it wasn't perfect but it was going to EVOLVE, not DEVOLVE. I'm a huge Call Of Duty fan, I've always played all of them since the midnight launch, day after day and nothing else. This year was different, I played Advanced Warfare for like 3 days and quickly came back to Destiny, because I liked it more. But if I have to waste 7 strange coins or dismantle an Exotic in order to exchange it for a "better one" and then you have to fully level up again and for the last upgrade you need another 7 strange coins or dismantle an Exotic, and don't forget, you can't do this when you want(buying them), it will only be available when Xur arrives, so if you finally have the coins for a shard, you still have to wait until Friday. I understand that this is your way to make us play more the game, but as I said after wasting so much time upgrading them, to go thru the same process and another step that will cost you strange coins and available on weekends or by dismantling one of your precious Exotics this is not the way in my opinion. There are many games that are out and coming out, I've had The Last Of Us: Remastered, Advanced Warfare, GTA V, and some indie games sitting on my PS4 HD, and if you are still going to go this way, I think you'll have one less player, and something tells me it's going to be more than one, but it's each one's choice, I'm not telling you to do the same, I just want to know your opinion and raise some more awareness to Bungie that we don't agree with this move. Post your opinions.
