Luke Smith's interview:
"Reforging is going to come back in some form or another."

Hell yes!!!
It'll be ideal if they bring reforging back BEFORE the next ToO - that way, the playing field will be more balanced.
I'm already seeing quite a few people getting snipers with Hidden Hand, shotguns with reinforced barrel + shot package, Rockets with tripod and grenades and horseshoes, etc....... And many other legendaries with all the right perks for a PvP advantage.
If they don't bring reforging back sooner, then those lucky snowflakes will have a slew of advantages in PvP activities like Iron Banner and ToO. Reforging must come back - FAST!!!!
I hope that they make reforging different than before, especially when it comes to getting the same crappy rolls over and over again.
When I got my first Ash Factory, it took me a total of 79x reforges until I got one with Tripod + Grenades and Horseshoes. And........ I did not stop there, I continued reforging because it did not have Javelin in the middle column.
All and all, it took my around 130 something reforges until I got my first Ash Factory with Tripod + Grenades and Horseshoes + Javelin.
I don't need to explain why a Ash Factory (or Radgast) with that roll is a beast in all PvP activities.
I've seen Ash Factories just straight up stop with those perks on them. If it wasn't for reforging, then those few lucky snowflakes would have been the only ones with "god tier" rocket launchers.
Reforging is what balanced the playing field, and made so that the lucky snowflakes didn't have too great of an advantage.

Edited by Valyrus: 9/30/2015 10:46:34 PMI personally hope reforging doesn't make a return.
-
Leave it out. Makes getting a gun with a good roll exciting again and not everyone has identical guns anymore
-
I re rolled my Fulcrum ~250 times for small bore, luck in the chamber, and final round. Ran out of weapon parts and ended up dismantling it in the end.
-
For PvP, I'll take a one shot RL with clown cartridge over tripod as an extra rocket or two per drop can come in handy. Not that I manage to stay alive long enough to use them all generally...
-
Look at all the snowflakes losing their minds!
-
6 RepliesIt also causes everyone to run the exact same weapons, so i wouldnt say its really a good thing
-
2 Repliesno, reforging didn't balance the playing field, it made everyone work to have the exact same perks on the exact same guns. Why would you want that? It's a loot game, based mostly on RNG.
-
Reforging sucked. There were way too many op perk combos that were too easy to get.
-
6 RepliesNope leave reforge out. I say make both teams use gunsmith green weapons
-
Trials should only allow gunsmith test weapons
-
2 RepliesReforging is a stupid idea. It is completely stupid to have EVERYBODY running around with perfect roll weapons. Let RNG decide who gets what, and let those guardians who have found good rolls boast their loot. Reforging completely ruins the idea of grinding for good gear and makes this game a one week wonder.

4 RepliesThat is not what he said... You completely misunderstood that quote. [b]He was referencing iron banner gear.[/b] He flat out said that reforging was a total mistake. Please bump this to make OP aware and others.
-
I do not think that will happen with weapons but iron weapons that you get reforge..
-
Have you guys dismantled all the guns and gear from previous dlc? I'm having trouble letting go of my old faves Im starting to run out of vault space...

No need to reforge. Equip hawkmoon and profit
-
Edited by Gunblade: 9/30/2015 10:34:41 PMThis right here. Maybe everyone is figuring it out finally. Reforge brings balance. To say otherwise proves you are an elitist who depends on having an advantage [b]NOT[/b] based on [b][u]SKILL[/u][/b]
-
Reforging sucked. I hate seeing the same shit.
-
Hmmm, I always thought the system they have in place now to bring light level up was the replacement for reforging.
-
Please god no.
-
Hope not, worst idea ever
-
Rip crucible it used to be fun
-
I think reforging isn't good for the game.
-
1 ReplyI hope it doesnt come back that is what made pvp broken. Being able to get the godly combination of a matador/party crasher with rifled barrel and shot package that broke crucible. If you're lucky enough to find one then thats your jewel if not it give you more of a reason to keep playing to get that perfect roll you want

"In some form or another"

1 ReplySo what was the point of removing it? Bungie too incompetent to fix it earlier? I wish they let the guys who did WoW to oversee what Bungie is doing, several updates and they still don't now shit about balance and fixing problems
