My fireteam and I have been getting more and more frustrated with the same thing. I loved my primary elementals. They offered a slight advantage in the game but not much. Only when there was a burn on a nightfall. But secondary and heavy obviously do more damage so what's the difference. No one complained about them. They gave you a reason to do a raid or go to the light house. Then they introduced the reforge mechanic. I loved it. I rolled my weapons to what I liked. Mainly full auto scout with fire fly. Everyone had the chance, given enough motes, to get the roll they wanted. It was great. And then they removed it from year 2 weapons. It may have made PvP a bit over run with the same rolls but you had a chance like everyone else to get it. The the etheric light. Same principle as the reforge. Great idea. Get light doing a hard task to bring your favourite gear to the next level. Then what do they do. Let's get rid of that too. Then they changed our vanguard and crucible marks to legendary marks. What a f@#% up the was. I could get 600 points per week. Get it per week!!!. I didn't need to jump on for 2hrs every day to get them like I am made to now. Which I dont as there are other things in life to do. I could get all my marks at the end of my swing and have some fun with so other weapons. Bungie you have screwed up well and truly. You had a half decent thing going and it's well and truly broken. You have given this game no reason to complete. Yeah there is the higher levels of light but what for? Trials and banner require have no major affect on light level over 290. Hard raids dropped primary elementals but not anymore. So what is the difference between my other normal weapons to hard raid weapons? A perk that might , and thats a big might, help out with the raid again and a higher light level for what? And I can't even begin to start with the exotics. When are we going to get the rest of them. Or is this all we get till the next dlc. Complete bull@&#". I played a damn long time to get my gear now I can't even us it where I want to. I have had a great time on this game but am almost to the point where I'm done. I've created some good friendships with this game which is great but I'm losing hope altogether.
