After browsing through the forums I found quite a lot of people that want year 1 gear to be infuseable and re-obtainable. I personaly am all for this, so I thought of a solution to this. [b]re-obtaining year 1 gear[/b] So instead of adding old guns to the loot table every once in a while, we should be able to obtain any year 1 vendor armor piece or weapon from a certain strike or crucible playlist.(it's already in the game actually, legacy strikes and classic crucible) The strike playlist will grant you vanguard gear and the crucible playlist will grant you crucible gear. The longer you stay in the playlists, the better your change at legendary gear/engrams gets. (Like the system in the heroic strikes now). Both playlist can also drop legendary and blue engrams, that can be decoded into any legendary piece of gear (vanguard and crucible). This way pve-players won't have to endure pvp and pvp-players won't have to grind strikes. But, the engrams can still give crucible gear to pve-players, and the other way around. [b]infusion for year 1 gear[/b] However, the gear that you obtain is still stuck in year one (stat-wise), in order to upgrade them to year two values you must infuse them. In order to do so you will need a something along the lines of etheric light. This item is only obtainable from end-game activities. Like raids, nightfalls, Trials of Osiris and Iron Banner. You will need to infuse your year one gear once with that item. This will allow that armor piece or weapon to gain year 2 (soon 3) stats. As soon as this is done once you can infuse it like we do now. Without needing another "etheric light". The infusion system as we know it right now is perfect for this. Because you can just add one more material for year one gear, and you're done. [b]balance[/b] In order for this to work, reforging must be taken from the House of Wolves weapons. We don't want everyone to run around with god-rolls in the crucible again. Maybe certain weapons should be adjusted (ammo/stat wise), so they fit in the current state of destiny. [b]rarity[/b] Certain armor sets and weapons will not drop in these playlists, think of Queen's wrath, Iron Banner and Trials of Osiris. These events are no longer, or don't drop the same gear anymore. This gear should remain rare. (Just like raid gear, of course) That's it, sorry for the long post. I just wanted to get this out here, see what people think. Any suggestions are welcome!
