So DeeJ, I have a question for you. Why should I invest more countless hours upgrading all my current exotics, only to have to do it again in a couple more months when House of Wolves launches? What *exactly* is my incentive here? Because if this is your plan to keep people like myself playing, it's garbage and it won't work.

Still waiting on that answer, DEEJ.

HE'S WAITING GUYS HE'S WAITING FOR THAT ANSWER YOU HEAR THAT GUYS HE'S STILL WAITING

DAMN STRAIGHT. lol He said ask a question, I asked! I want a response, since he's supposedly the almighty "community manager."

Waiting on my answer, DeeJ.

They already stated that reset exotics take less time and materials to upgrade
-
I don't give a crap. I don't want to have to max my stuff TWICE now, regardless of how much 'easier' and less 'costly' it is the second time. Go look at my total playtime. With that, I still have 7 exotics to max, 4 of which are just waiting on Shards. LOVE YOU BUNGIE...
-
Would you prefer your old exotics to become obsolete? Or should you now and forever always have maxed out gear?
-
I've got about the same amount of hours logged and most likely more exotics. Play something else or suck it up. With almost 400 hours in for you like me most likely your just going to keep playing anyways.

Edited by downbeatxtreme: 12/5/2014 5:09:18 PMHow is it less time when we are constrained by 2 factor: Xur RNG to proc the reforge option Rare commodity like strange coins and exotic shards

Edited by Hrist Valkyrie: 12/6/2014 12:39:44 AMUpgraded exotics do NOT require shards to complete the second time. They already stated this. Still BS, though. Furthermore, XUR does not proc the upgrade; he just sells stuff that is upgrade capable out the gate. This was already confirmed as well in the weekly update.

“I can only upgrade one existing Exotic a week?” No, Xûr will have many of them in stock. quoted from the weekly update
-
Each week 6 random exotics upgrade option
-
Go and read again... reforge requires additional exotic shard
-
There will be about 6 weapons available to upgrade. So it won't be rng for one weapon and I'm sure that exotic shards will be included as random drops just like ascendant materials. You get one for an exotic and 2 for a fully upgraded exotic so I heard
-
Given the requirements to upgrade an exotic, yea, it is locked to 1-2 per week. 7500 Glimmer and a shard? Forget it. I'll get my armor pre-upgraded to save a shard, salvage the rest, and spend the upgrades on harder to obtain weapons.
-
I'm skeptical since they did screw us over with the exotic shards, and do you truly believe they won't screw us over with such broken mechanics in House of Wolves... Bungie just -blam!- up big time and drive most of their current player base ftom playing this game since the effort you put wouldn't matter in the next expansion
-
It allows for weapons obtained in the base game to remain viable after the expansion. According to the update notes the refilled exotics require significantly less time to upgrade.

I definitely want an answer to this

Thank you. This deserves to be answered, because repetition =/= additional interest or newcontent.
