For those who love the strangers rifle; let's get some chatter going on! The thing is a beast in PvP and it got shafted by Bungie, which is unfortunate. My solution to upgrade from Rare status to Legendary. This would benefit newer players, as they have a way to work toward their first legendary. You first need to level up the gun entirely, then one new node will be unlocked. This node would require something like 750 glimmer and 3-6 ascendent materials. Another method I thought of was a quest. To earn this quest, you would first need to upgrade the weapon completely. The quest could be as follows:
1. Beat The Black Garden Story Mission with the Heroic Modifier
2. Earn 25 Headshots in the Crucible
3. Dismantle 5 rare or higher Pulse Rifles
4. Complete The Nexus Strike (A special lvl 19 strike, similar to the thorn bounty)
Here are the perks. The ones in bold, are some that I thought of.
Strangers Rifle Legendary
1. Smooth Ballistics
1. Accurized Ballistics
1. Smart Drift Control
2. Full Auto
3. Upgrade Damage
4. Perfect Balance
4. [b]Equalizer [/b](Precision Kills feed this weapon reserve ammo)
4. Speed Reload
5. Third Eye/Luck in the Chamber/[b]Vex Disruptor[/b] (An upgrade that prevents nearby vex from teleporting)

Great idea. Then you can upgrade it to an exotic weapon by getting arc kills in trials like thorn lol.

Signed- I don't mind if the gun isn't improved at all, just having the ability to upgrade along side the new dlc would be nice. The gun is amazing already for PVP and I'd enjoy using it in PVE again as well. Honestly, in the future I would hope they create a DLC centered around the Stranger and in either the end she gives you an enhanced version of the gun, as thanks for your help. I find her to be the most I testing character in the game as she is deliberately not talking about herself, everyone else just doesn't have a story.

I don't understand why you can't upgrade to legendary for all weapons or armor. Some of the best looking gear and weapons are rare or uncommon.

Easy ass way to get it so nope
-
Signed... but the strike needs to be at least lvl 30, and you should clear a dertenined amount of enemy waves in order to minimize cheesing it.

Oh yeah! Signed!

I kept mine and I am game

Signed I guess

For sure. I can't believe that thing doesn't go exotic. I'm pretty sure they considered it being and exotic at first. Man the first upgradable weapon we got was the worst weapon of all time! I've always kept a strangers rifle around, hoping that one day it'll become higher Lvl.

Signed. This will be so amazing.
