The forum are in a state of chaos at the moment and this is not to argue about my opinion on upgrading exotics. But one thing I thought that was strange is waiting for Xur to do that. I think it's fine that Xur gives exotic shards but why not give the upgrading job to the Gunsmith? The poor guy looks so lonely and he probably feels bad that the closest contact he gets with people is saying his various quotes out of context to a bunch of space warriors trying to climb a tree. The Gunsmith has a permanent place in the tower and he should be used for something other than ammo synthesis. Who agrees?
Edit: wow the response to this topic is amazing! I never expected this! The inly thing that'd make this better is if Deej showed up to tell us that our voices have been heard and Banshee can get enough glimmer to support himself this holiday season! :)
Another Edit: If you bump you should use #bumpforbanshee. Let's see if that starts trending.
Prince Edit III: I have contacted Banshee and he appreciates all of the support. By the way Bungie if you want to know how I got his number you didn't hide it very well. Lots of people climb the tree, someone was bound to find it carved in one of those branches at some point.
The Forums Edit IV - A Bump of Hope: Highest Rated topic eh? My reign will be eternal! Also hi Mom! Look at me I'm being recognized in a small way!
The Fifth Editment - This topic has reached over 1000 likes! I have ascended to a higher state of existence! Bow in the glow of my eternal.....eternalness....*cough* Seriously though, thanks everyone for the support :)
Final Edit VI: Community Chronicles - I was unaware of user vegginut's topic about Banshee getting some more love and Deej has seen his topic and stated that he will "pass it on". This is great news! Hopefully soon Banshee will receive the attention he deserves!

Yeah, why does xur sell you something for strange coins, then take it back as part of a trade? Is he creating his own weird economy that he controls? It would make way more sense that banshee would need the shard and glimmer.
-
Yeah that way you dont have to wait for xur to start re-grinding xp for your weapons God i hate that
-
Agreed! #bumpforbanshee
-
Go for it man!
-
The gunsmith has no purpose in life!

They should make him sell legendary weapon engrams for like 20 motes of light or something. Other than that he's useful for a good ammo run. Found the poor guy getting teabagged by four people on his table once.
-
The gunsmith should sell relevant guns, I used him when I first started on the game, but when I levelled my warlock up I never bothered with him! He's nearly useless, the special orders women is too, I can't understand why they don't give them a purpose to higher levelled players, which us 90% of us!
-
I feel like the forums have always been in a "state of chaos"
-
True. The Gunsmith needs something. He's almost useless. They should let him change the weapon upgrades (perks like firefly or field-scout) for some glimmer and weapon parts.

Agree completely. Give Banshee some legendary stock and respec. #bumpforbanshee
-
They need to lower the price of heavy ammo synthesis n bring better rare guns there. N raise the glimmer cap. Which I don't think there should be a cap. But
-
Because that would make sense and probably more programming effort than the budget allows.

Edited by Joshtrua: 12/12/2014 1:17:18 AM#bumpforbanshee this is a marvelous idea! Why didn't bungie think of this? ...
-
I really hope bungie listens to this
-
I back this 100%, this is how we start changing destiny for the better.
-
He is probably content to make a tun of money of ammo.
-
I always make sure I visit Banshee whenever I go to the tower just to see how he's getting on, poor guy always looks so lonely. I'm fully behind this campaign for more work for the Gunsmith! #BumpForBanshee

I dont even use banshee for ammo anymore. Get all my ammo from xur.

Edited by Kronos: 12/12/2014 2:55:25 AMEdit 4 though... I think this is a great idea! #bumpforbanshee

I really enjoyed the Iron Banner's re-roll perk system. Perhaps the Gunsmith can have that for regular weapons?
-
maybe the gunsmith should try selling rare fusion rifles for people doing the pocket infinity bounty and he wont be so hated
