While some of it might be speculation still, at this point, it is still an interesting read. Based on what was farmed out of DestinyDB, so far, it actually does make quite a bit of sense. No idea, if this happens, if it will be just within the DLC gear - or if it is a larger mechanic that will be rolled out. http://planetdestiny.com/evolving-weapons-exotic/ Interesting tidbits are mostly: - New Materials - We largely already knew about these from the DestinyDB article from patch day. - Rare -> Legendary -> Exotic Progression - Specifically, referring to the Necrochasm AR (http://db.planetdestiny.com/items/view/2809229973) - Murmur: Rare -> Legendary evolution of the Murmer FR (http://db.planetdestiny.com/items/view/2609120348) Also, worth noting, Murmur appears to start out with an Arc damage type - but you can unlock Solar damage as a perk. If this all actually comes to be, I think it is a great change. Having your weapons grow with you and not be as quickly obsoleted is actually pretty slick.
