Firstly, I would like to stat by saying that this is not a complaint about the current situation with gear. I simply have played lots of games and would like to put forth an opinion on a fun system people might enjoy for gear. First off the major gripe people seem to have with the gear progression in the game is that A) everyone ends up using the same gear and B) gear becomes useless after new patches and C) there is nothing to do once you have the new gear. My idea only covers A and C because i don't really see an issue in having to get new gear for top end content (but thats a discussion for another time). So lets get to how my new system would work. Gear would be obtainable in two different ways. The first way would be raiding. This would work the same way as it does now. Except the major difference would be the each raid (CE / VOG/ HOW) would drop its own unique set of gear. The difficulty of each raid would determine the light level of gear and each expansion would add a new difficulty setting to each raid. This would solve two problems in this game. Firstly, old content would remain relevant. Secondly, you begin to get multiple max out sets the guardians can wear so people feel different. This is how gear will be obtained in raiding. Now some people complain that they get the helm to drop 3 times and its pointless. Well what i think they should do is allow you to exchange that item for an equal light level of one of your favorite factions in the tower. This further diversifies the uniqueness of your guardian. Now you will get lvl 32s wearing everything from classic VOG gear to Dead Orbit gear (looking like the master race dead orbit is). In my version of this idea raid gear can only be exchanged for vender gear and not the other way around. This allows those hard for PVE players to show off their gear with pride and change between multiple sets. Don't worry i didn't forget about PVP players. There would be a PVP set available as well. This can only be found in crucible or iron banner and excludes rumble (sorry but it is too easy to boost in the game mode with friends for gear). Only the top 2 players on the winning team and the number one player on the losing team are eligible for a gear roll. Any piece would have a 4% drop rate. This gear is only obtainable in crucible but can be traded for faction gear in the tower. This makes hard core PVP players be able to show off their unique gear as well. The last part of this is set would have bonuses per item you wear ( AKA a 2 piece and 4 piece bonus). These bonuses would be small but would help in whatever that set was focused on. For example VOG set would increase heavy ammo drops in VOG while crucible set increased the amount of special ammo from crates. tl;dr I would like to see the introduction of multiple sets of end game gear. Sets for each major raid, crucible and factions. Multiples of dropped raid or crucible gear could be exchanged for faction gear. This would make guardians more unique in how the wanted to play. I would love to hear what people like and dislike about this idea. Thanks for taking the time to read. Edit: Posts get pushed down super quick if they don't complain about Ghorn drop rates Edit 2: for those wondering selecting "i like this idea" still implies you hate the OP
