They won't be useless in pvp..... As damage values are evened out to create a semi balanced playing field. They will however be useless in PvE ( take this with a grain of salt this is me speculating ). With a light level attatched to armor AND weapons you assume that you need to achieve the highest light level possible in order to conquer the challenges ahead... If you limit yourself to only using the light brought on by armor than at a certain point the game will become unplayable. Example being if you could somehow make it into Crotas end on hard as a lvl 20, the enemies would have such a lvl advantage that you would literally do no damage. That's why I feel like "year one" weapons will be obsolete come TTK, which sucks because all the weapons i have sought out become motes and glimmer.

  • Your light level matters, not weapon level at all. I can take a khostov on a 34 and do CE, I can't take a Gally on a 20 and do CE because it'll do 0 DMG. They won't do as much damage, but they'll still be better depending on situation of the game.

  • Yes your right but if you've looked at TTK footage weapons have a light level attached to them..... Therefore you'd be under-leveled by taking in guns that didn't have a light level attatched to them... Hence going along with both our analogies you would reach a point where your light level wouldn't be on par with enemies and you'd do no damage..... This is unless bungie changes that part of what they've shown us
