I'm seeing a lot of people get really worked up because year one weapons and gear are likely going to become obsolete in TTK. This is how games with a similar loot structure have been doing things for over a decade, and it's worked out pretty good for them. Typically a game like this will make all gear obsolete with every expansion, but bungie has compromised and made it annual (from the looks of things) I hope I'm not alone in saying this NEEDS to happen. Otherwise the game (which is already getting stale) will get really stale. It's a really nice change of pace when this happens. The meta totally changes, (thorn, Gjally are no longer a conversation in end game) Everyone is back to zero, so it should be easier to find raid groups for those who had problems previously. What wow has done in past has been: Give you gear that was leaps and bounds better than the previous raid as a reward for the first story mission of the new expansion, and all others. It's nice, you have a reason to do the story, and at the end you have everything you need to be successful in the first few bosses of a raid. It takes a few weeks to accumulate gear from those bosses to go ahead and finish the raid. This really brings everything down to skill, you have to focus on boss mechanics and team work if you want to get things done. Because unless you complete the raid, you're never going to get the gear you need to hit max level, you NEED to do it a few times with underpowered gear. I personally hope they go ahead and leave all year one guns behind in year one. [spoiler]i do NOT work for bungie, as I know that's coming, lol.[/spoiler] "Edit" 1: this poll honestly went exactly opposite of how i thought it would. Seems people with experience in games with this loot system don't want it, and people who don't have that experience think it will be fine. My position is unchanged, but the numbers don't lie. "Edit" 2: this poll has swung and went exactly how I thought it would, lol.

  • My idea of being the exotics of year one into 2 is that they will be weaker than other weapons we find in the year, and slowly will be phased out as new exotics become available. Hope so at least, otherwise it'll get stale real quick.
