Come give your opinion on year one and two weapons in the crucible!

First of all I personally dismantled every year one weapon in my inventory to push myself to find the great year two gear. That being said everyone here complaining about party crasher, messenger, fel winters, hopscotch, and every other Y1 gun I don't think you guys understand. Thousands of guardians including myself bought destiny day one (and no this has nothing to do with money I think destiny is worth every penny) all of us spent hundreds if not thousands of hours killing the fallen, waking up the hive, getting smashed by cabal shields, killing atheon, Crota, skolas, trying to get the best gear to "become legend" as bungie says. Finally getting the vex, ghorn, queen breakers bow. Getting that hopscotch after playing 200 strikes in a row or the time seeing party crasher drop at the end of a crucible match. Let's not forget finally going flawless in trails and opening that beautiful chest on mercury(i only got it once)These are all great memories and triumphs from year one. Now here we are in year 2 and it is fantastic. Now here is the "point" I'm trying to make. For all of those hours. For all of the raids completed. The thousands of motes used to get that roll. Bungie has taken 90% of everything away from the year one veterans (like a shader is going to mage up for it) house of wolves didn't come out that long ago. So items from flawless trail runs and elder cipher weapons didn't get a chance to be used in PvE. So the only thing these players have left for these weapons they worked so had for is the crucible. They have the right to use them. They earned them. It's time for the new guardians to go out and find the year 2 weapons that will destroy all in iron banner and trails(year one weapons can't be used there). But as for the year one veterans of this amazing game. They will reap the rewards of there efforts in the crucible. I for one will find these new year 2 weapons and love the challenge of going against a Hunter with the messenger, feel winters, and truth. Game on guardians!

  • Looks like Sun breakers and year one weapons just took a back seat to the new silver system

  • I got rid of my raid gear (besides the exotics) because I can get them again. The vendor weapons like the shadow price and the vanquisher I will keep because I can't get them back.

    • I kept most of my Vault and Crota gear. PoE gear/weapons are trash. Felwinters will never die. Mythoclast will rise again. Pocket Infinity will be broken forever.

      • It's only a few responses so far but I love to here real opinions from people. Please tell me more and I will respond. I'd also love to know what you think bungie should do with year one items in year two. Leave them? Have is get to choose like in prison of elders? I've even hear of people wanted a year one playlist separating the two. Very interesting. We are the destiny community. This is the biggest and most influential group of gamers out there today. Destiny is truly one of a kind and I personally only want it to grow. We are on year to of a ten year plan for destiny. It's going to be a fun ride

        • I think you give way more credit to year one players lol. I've played since beta beaten almost everything year 1 had to throw at me except for trials. Only because I stopped playing destiny had a chance to kill 35 skolas a few times but that's it. When year 2 came out I crushed all my year 1 stuff and I had guns from the first couple weeks still, I jus felt like nothing was irreplaceable except for gally baby lol. However I personally feel like the people who are still using fell winters lie and the adept messenger well for lack of a better word scrubs. They use them nothing more as crutch weapons, I mean why else use them. They lower your light level making the drops that you get low light level as well. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying they're bad or anything, I'm jus saying I doubt anyone uses the thorn these days for nostalgia lol

          • Day 1 player's opinion. Personally I think that we should be moving onto Y2 weapons, I still kept most of my Y1 weapons those as i have just spent far too many times rerolling them to just dismantle them. I think Bungie really messed up on the Y1 exotics that they rolled over to Y2 though. Bungie finally balances the game with the hand cannon nerf and allow scout/auto rifles to be used but don't have Y2 versions of MIDA, Hard Light, or Monte Carlo?? Xbox players are finally able to use the Monte Carlo but we can't use it in ToO or IB. Also they go and change the sights on the No Land Beyond so that it's more user friendly but, yet again, no Y2 variant... All of the abuse of The Last Word and they make a Y2 version of that?! As you stated though, all the players that just got the flawless weapons from ToO will not be able to use them in the Y2 ToO. How does that make any sense? Summoner & scholar are now viable but useless in anything other than vanilla crucible. Changes definitely need to be made on what guns can be upgraded or upgraded versions need to be released. I can understand wanting to make the new guns the new meta but the current way things is not the correct one IMO.
