If you'll take a look at my Guardian, you'll see she's got some pretty cool-looking arms. This piece of armor is probably the coolest set of arm armor I've seen in a long time. Not only that, but I think I got it as a reward exclusive to a Strike (I think it was the Archon Priest one). That means that if anyone else wants it, they can go and do that Strike, and eventually get it the same way I did. I could even help them do it.
The only problem, of course, is that it's a Rare. And it just so happens to be in the same slot as my only piece of Raid gear.
So, Bungie, I ask you, can this problem be remedied? Can we get some sort of upgrade available to make our cool Rare stuff into Legendaries? Not the Rustburner or whatever default Rare set is called, but the special stuff you get from Strikes or from the Queen's Emissary. Or can we make all of this reward stuff Legendary to begin with? So much of this game is designed to be useless after level 24 that it's a wonder anyone stuck around after the first 20 hours.
Also, Bungie community, do you have any fond memories of weapons and armor you loved and cherished, but ultimately disassembled in your quest for bland, uninspiring Legendary gear?

I do remember one such occasion when I was first starting out with my Titan. I found this really awesome helm. I didn't care that it was a common item the design and the sweet looking horn jutting out from the forehead made it look awesome. I quickly realized I could never keep the helm because you have to change gear to survive and I soon changed a to a plain boring looking helm. I'm also disappointed in the variety of design from legendary armor you get from the vendors in the Tower. The Vanguard and Crucible armor look the same just different colors and the same goes for the different factions and their legendary armor. There are so many sweet designs for armor that already exist. Is it so impossible to turn some those into legendary armor instead of the same armor different color scheme we have going on now?
