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.

Reforging just ruined the entire idea of loot imo. Made every single gun within an archetype exactly the same, rendering a lot of it pointless. Basically the only difference between weapons was the name at the top, and my God did I hate that.
-
I would not get my hopes up.
-
Maybe you could play the game to get the rolls instead of spend only your materials, fail to get that perfect roll, and then come here to complain that all your materials are gone.
-
130 rolls to get some cheating advantage? Bitch you're a scrub, you're garbage, if you were any good you wouldn't be using crutch weapons
-
Reforging will kill destiny. If I re-roll a god-like roll on my pulse riffle, I'll never need another primary for crucible and another shitty meta will start where it's still shotguns, but with pulse riffles instead of thorn and TLW. Idk,, about you, but I actually enjoy getting new weapons now to see what the rolls are.
-
Throw trading and selling/buying in too and it'll be just like, oh, most other games, hope they don't or if they do then in appropriate way, say rng.. IF you finish some mad, time consuming quest there'd be a 'chance'! of a token that can be used for say? 10 reforges but on one weapon, plus reforge's themselves cost a crazy amount, That sounds like 'one way', if it another it'll piss off many people.

Please no.
-
I hope they never bring reforging back
-
Reforging is what made the pre 2.0 meta into what it was. Reforging should not come back in any capacity, it was a dumb idea that should not see the light of day again.

Edited by Auriventris: 9/29/2015 10:38:06 AM[b]Am I the only person who would rather sometimes go against a player with a lucky BS roll then have to deal with every single damn human being having a reforged BS roll? #Logic[/b]

Reforging is gay
-
Reforming is stupid...
-
Reforging made things balanced? Jesus they just get dumber and dumber each day.
-
Ruins the game Hope it dies
-
If they bring back reforging it will literally ruin so much that they have started to rebuild. Reforging ruined guns. Everyone deserves to FIND a gun with a perfect roll. When everyone can have that same gun it ruins the excitement.
-
Luke smith tweeted himself that reforging isn't coming back
-
I'm glad it's gone. Now I might use a weapon, regardless of archetype, if it has good perks. So more variety Reforging didn't balance the playing field, it ruined it.
-
Oh god I hope not. Reforging just made everyone run around with the same guns and took all the fun out of getting a good drop. I'm glad it was removed.
-
I hate reforging it's a waste of motes and I'd rather rng it's more fun. I would rather level up my faction with those motes.
-
"Lucky snowflakes" that's a first...
-
That's amusing considering Luke Smith also recently tweeted it won't be returning
-
I'm all for no more reforging. Makes my braced framed, LitC, Final Round Timur Lash all the more special :)
-
2 RepliesNone of these changes will occur until the next DLC. and reforging is pointless anyway, all the Year 2 perks suck ass.
-
You must be the only person that wants reforging back.
