I hear a lot of complaining about each player looking the same. This is true to an extent. I have an idea that would allow each player to be unique. In this idea, each piece of gear can be upgraded to max level. For a piece of white armor to get to green, it would simply require glimmer and xp. For a green to go to a blue, it would require glimmer and xp. For a blue to become legendary, the last upgrade would require ascendant shards. To hit level 30, the armor could use ascendant shards. To hit 32, the armor would require radiant shards. And for 34, it would require HoW materials. This way, all players could be unique and each raid would be a step to becoming max level.
