They won't...? The ram was OP as hell. Most of the Y1 guns were not used often. Elemental primaries are sort of a crutch and you don't need them. Find new guns. Find new gear. The Lock helmet that raises faster is best in slot except for the sunsinger chest in hard raid or the stormcaller chest in PVP, or gloves of ak.

    The Ram got nerfed. Every class now has a chest piece increasing armor. I don't need you to tell me what's a crutch according to you. There are elemental Shields and elemental weapons to deal with said shields. This has been a Gameplay mechanic since day 1. However, this post isn't really about that. This is about the missing Y1 exotics and Bungie themselves stated, that all of the Exotics will eventually move forward.

    Right. And I am saying that you are talking about a game that was out for a single season. It isn't a bad thing that it is a crutch, but the only real reason to ever get *burn primaries was for the nightfall. Raid weapons were useful really within the raid itself and there were better ones for strikes. How many people did you see in PVP using the VoG scout? Also, it isn't a crutch to me... it is a crutch period. We all did it. I used word of crota with void burn nightfalls. Why not? It made it go so much easier. I use Supercell with arc burn. Elemental primaries make the nightfall easier but are hardly required. Removing them or shifting them to exotics only isn't a bad move really. It also evens the playing field. If you have a friend with an elemental primary and you don't and do burn nightfall, I am guessing that your friend will out DPS you hard. That they removed it isn't a huge deal. You still have tons of special and heavy weapons that all have elemental damage with slightly more limited ammo. In Y2, Bungie removed a hell of a lot of weapons that were either OP or no one really used from Y1. Did you really want them to bring that stupid rocket launcher that didn't have tracking a crappy blast radius from Y1? Why? So no one would use it for another year as well? The ram got nerfed because it had to. It was extremely OP. Thorn got nerfed because it was OP. Shotguns got nerfed but people still manage to make them OP. Everyone had their favorite year 1 weapon. Now we all will get our favorite year 2. Or you can do what I did and just stop playing because the loot system is broken to hell and they arn't going to fix it. Also, I doubt they will ban PVP cheaters. I don't know. I just don't see the complaints on this one being too valid. Hate on bungie though. I sure as hell do. In addition, seriously the new lock armor is amazing. The stormcaller armor means I get storm caller up all the time with the duration perk. The new sun singer chest gives me even more nades. Who doesn't love that? The helmet makes you res and be resed faster. I never really cared about the lock y1 exotics but these y2 passives are extremely useful to builds. Try them out and if you still don't like them, fair enough but I would give them a shot. I say this as someone who has cleared every single thing in the game in y1 and y2 with a lock main. Also, if you like scout rifles and play a sun singer, Tlaloc is your BFF. Good luck!
