  • The crucible was full of blood instead of light so the weapons issued out were given weaker rounds and pve enemies got a vaccine for the OP weapons. Thats the lore, make up some BS like I did or accept this is a video game where things need to be toned down in order for everyone to keep their heads from going bald.

  • The Traveler and Darkness fight on the level of reality to alter our weaponry to either give us strength or weaken us respectively

  • Shaxx requests changes to certain weapons and gear when it comes to PVP weapons, but he will never ban them. [quote]Zavala — A waste of time, as always. I won't confiscate the Red Death engrams, [b]I won't roll back the SUROS Crucible firmware to its "original" (preposterously inflated) state.[/b] And I won't conduct any more "forensic inquiries" like this![/quote] As for PVE weapons begin to break or loose effectiveness if overused.

      • Banshee-44 is incompetent. So, when you go to tower and have him clean and service your weapons,… well, there you go,… there’s your Lore. My work here is done.

      • Weapons get upgraded parts based on Last City availability for buffs and improved mechanics for the guns themselves. Nerfs is simple: You dun -blam!-ed up and overused it. Now their is only scrap parts left to replace all the damage and abuse you put it through. Ya lunatic. /s

      • It is the only way to keep a human mind engaged. If everything was perfectly balanced and stayed the same the player will be bored and play something else.

      • Long long ago there were beings who sought ways to feel smarter than other people on the internet. Some of these beings played Destiny a lot and some of these beings did not play Destiny at all. After many eons of searching they happened upon something called The Nerf. They soon realized that this something would provide them ways to feel smarter than other people on the internet for the rest of eternity. And so, periodically these beings emerge at precisely the same time that nerfs do. During these times the ones that play the game a lot pretend they don't play it and the ones that don't play it pretend that they do. There are, however, other beings who both play Destiny and say that they do. And these beings say to the first two... Thanks for the advertising you shmucks!!!!!

              • Its a thing that only exist because of videogames. Its like sunsetting. Its a videogame thing, not a lore thing. At least the content vault can be explained.

                  When a weapon is nerfed, the tears from Guardians fuel the Darkness. When a weapon is buffed, the happiness from Guardians fuel the Traveller.

                  The darkness that consumed Mars, Titan, Io and Mercury slowly crept toward Rozak-3's Anarchy as he walked toward Zavala. Nobody noticed. "Hello Guardian" *A few mouse clicks later* "Very good" "A prepared soldier is a victorious soldier" *ESC button* "Back to the front" Zavala says in the distance. The end.

                • I’m pretty sure there were actually lore cards about the efficacy of things being screwed with in the Crucible. As for PvE? I dunno, because video game.
