None of these weapons are getting a year two version at launch, how do people feel about that in addition to the fact there will not be a year two ghorn or icebreaker
EDIT: for those that haven't picked up on what I am saying, if you view the one minute TTK teaser that was released the day before the reveal, you will notice at 34s you see a different exotic collection which has year one versions of these primaries but there is not a corresponding year 2 version. So regardless of what people think about the vague promise of more year two exotics to come. This would suggest at launch at least, there will not be a year two version of these guns. This is of course not saying there isn't a way to infuse or ascend year one exotics to higher attack/light levels, but DeeJ very carefully didn't showing the perks screen of the year one exotic weapons
EDIT 2: is it possible that when they stipulated in the video infusion would only apply to year two gear, they were referring to legendaries given they were at the crucible vendor and they have completely skipped over mentioning the same process would apply to year one exotics?
EDIT 3: so I have watched the stream again for about the fourth time and it does seem to be fairly concrete that year one exotics will not benefit from infusion, just around the time they are at the gunsmith they talk about infusion and specifically state that only year 2 legendary and exotic weapons and armour will benefit from infusion. But I would just add that at no point in the video do they show the perks screen for any exotic weapon, so there a very very slim possibility there may be something there
EDIT 4: weekly update confirms Gjallarhorn will remain as a year one exotic at year one levels and only certain exotics will be getting year 2 treatment
EDIT 5: PlanetDestiny have a video up which suggests all year 1 Exotics will make the trip into Year 2 (however there is even a comment on the video itself which suggests some might be held off until year 3), video is here [url]https://youtu.be/ZIbSPTjpfzU[/url] but they are quick to point out the Gjallarhorn is not in the near complete build they have played. We also have to take much of this with a pinch of salt based on the fact that planetdestiny is reporting on two different sources, Edge magazin and the pfficial playstation magazine.

Mida Icebreaker I want these two back. I'm fine with losing gjallahorn.

11 RepliesYeah if exotics aren't coming forward neither am I.

3 RepliesAt the least, every exotic from house of wolves should be brought over. They are only a couple of months old. It's not like we had a whole year to try to get them.

I think thorn will be His Rose. So it will be a year 2

1 ReplyIt brings a tear to my eye that my Thorn will not be carried over, I've had the SoB since week 2 and now I won't be able to use him just because he doesn't output enough damage in PvE, Still gonna rock the Thorn in PvP though

3 RepliesWho gives a shit there's going to be new weapons to use, stop living in the past and move on

5 RepliesEdited by SuggestedPigeon: 8/21/2015 1:34:51 PMVex Mythoclast is yet again getting frozen. It's pretty much been the most victimized exotic in the game and I really feel bad about it. Justified nerf shortly after it started to appear in crucible. Frozen in dark below. 1.1.1 nerf crippled its usefulness. Intermittent periods of it glitching and requiring a charge in order to fire began to arise. House of wolves brought its attack up to 365. 1.1.1 nerf to it wasn't applied when house of wolves rolled out and was actually a viable weapon for the first two weeks of trials. 1.1.1 reapplied because fusion rifles were usable. 2.0 it'll be nerfed again with all fusions. TTK frozen again. It's like watching the drug addled decline of a celebrity.

I am very disappointed with this part of the update , I worked so hard from nearly destiny launch to obtain my exotic weapons and armor only to find out that they are useless now . I know I can buy some of the exotic weapons I have in there year 2 versions at 150 marks ?? Which means I have to grind my backside off again to obtain what I already have ?? This is unfair . And as for weapons like thorn , icebreaker , ghorn etc are not available in year 2 versions which sucks !! I feal a bit hard done by bungie , I spent nearly 50 pounds on the game another 20 for dark below dlc another 20 for house of wolves dlc and 40 pounds for taken king which totals to a staggering total of 130 pounds ? ONLY TO HAVE BEEN SHAFTED OUT OF MY EXOTICS !!! THANKS BUNGIE I REALY APPRECIATE IT .
-
We should be allowed to upgrade are exotic weapons to there year 2 versions for free and not have to grind for endless hours for legendary marks . Is this too much to ask for from a 130 pound game ?
-
I can only really see this being effective with Gally and Ice breaker, as bungie doesn't want people to breeze through the raid in an instant. As for Thorn and Mida, well that's pretty F***ing stupid. Bungie said "thorn will become more useful in PvE now" [b]yet[/b], they didn't bring it into year two making it [b]ineffective[/b] against year two enemies. Seriously? That's F***ing stupid. As I recall, I remember Bungie putting an emphasis on supporting weapons obtained throughout quests, like the chaperone. I'm pretty sure Thorn consisted of a [b]PvP[/b] and a [b]PvE[/b] quest/mission to obtain, which were no easy feat at the time, so that's a bit hypocritical of them not to put it into year two. (if you haven't figured it out, Thorn is my favorite weapon) Same goes with Gally, but its more about the principle. Bungie nerfs Gally's wolfpack rounds because of "salty player behavior" saying people shouldn't keep gallarjorn-less guardians out of Crota raids, but then literally Xur is selling it the week after? *sigh* Need I say more?

2 RepliesEdited by BULGARIAN007: 9/26/2015 6:20:40 AMBudgie and Destiny creators, I'm a very big fan of the game. I've played the game since day one. I am very happy with all the new exsotic guns you guys came out with, but one thing really bothers me that the hardest gun to get in the game " Necrochasm" it's not included in year 2 exsotics . Now I do understand that you guys want us the destiny population to use them but not bringing the Necrochasm in year 2 is a piss off. Try to understand lots of people love this gun and not being able to use it in the Taken King expansion does not make people happy including me. Can you guys make an exception and bring the gun in to year 2. Sincerely One of your biggest fan Ivo

27 RepliesThey were showing the weapons on deej's account deej does not own necrochasm or thorn so they could be upgradeable.

1 ReplyWho cares?

Incorrect. necrochasm is getting a year 2 version you have to find the blueprint. Go watch the first stream where they show the exotic blueprints you can see necrochasm on the bottom.

Hawkmoon TLW Thunderlord and Hawkmoon are still ascending. That will do for me

All im saying is lolololol

According to the most recent Game Informer podcast, the reasons are pretty sound as to why some weapons aren't coming immediately into year 2 They didn't 100% rule out bringing anything permanently. They specifically said Ghorn and Icebreaker represented answers to flaws in the first year of Destiny. Bullet sponge bosses, and the severe death penalty during nightfalls that caused people to need those weapons, are things they want to avoid in year two. They also said that they don't want cure all exotics, and would prefer no singular exotic to always be the best answer to a situation. They also took into account the number of exotic weapon types that are in TTK. For example there are 3 new exotic scout rifles, so Mida is being left behind for now.
-
2 Replieswell, weren't they saying that you will get year 2 access to weapons you have gotten to drop? maybe Deej never got a Vex or Nechrochasm? I know I've had them all drop and I've had ALL exotics and armors drop for me so we won't really know until we all check our Blueprint station? or did I miss something?
-
2 RepliesNechrochasm perks will be updated, but it is unknown if it's y2 or y1. I saw when they briefly went over it in a stream it changes from precision kills often cause cursed thrall explosions to always
-
if planetdestiny is wrong i will burn them to the ground for giving me false hope
-
Only thing i want upped to y2 is the necro, its going to be useless just as it becomes useful

2 RepliesChill out they will be released in time god your a bunch of whining kids
