>>INB4 HURR DURR FANBOY >>INB4 OP CANT INB4 Let me start by saying that at first, i didn't understand what this exotic reset was. And i was hella mad about it. I was the first to jump down bungies throat. But then the mob mentality subsided and i was able to let it sink it, and thought about why i enjoyed playing this game. Its the grind! I think what all of this boils down to, is that people don't want newbies to drop into the game and grab a gun with 300 attack from xur or on the first run through of the VoG, because patrons have worked hard to get to where they are. Unfortunatley, this is a storm in a teacup. Its all been blown way out of proportion (Who'd of thought such a thing could happen on the internet, eh?). You're losing 2 perks, in exchange for a 300 base attack weapon. And where exactly does it say that the new perks available will be the same as the old ones? Maybe there will be 2 of the same, plus a few additional nodes in the skill tree Why exactly does that suck so hard? Wouldn't it be better if you didn't have to carry people through nightfalls and raids? What difference does it make what others have? If your that much of a badass guardian, re-levelling your new bit of gear should be a piece of p1ss. And hey, you don't have to do it! I suspect that all the folks whining about the exotic "reset" come from purely FPS backgrounds. In RPG's this is the norm. You have paid for an MMORPG. If you want a shooter, buy call of duty. Its pretty much the same price as TDB and less than an expansion pass. Its simple. You get to grind more. Which is what most people enjoy doing who buy this kind of game. Bungie haven't gone about it in the best way. But its happening. Yes they could of just added an additional node to existing weapons which were maxed to let players keep their perks. But they didn't. Get over it. No you shouldn't have to part with your hard won strange coins for an exotic shard. But you do. Get over it. 7K Glimmer isn't that much, even with the glimmer cap especially over 2 or 3 characters. Get over it. The exotic 'reset' won't really effect the already lvl 30's & 29's that much. And if your character is below that, it'll be a GOOD THING for you. You will be able to level faster and get the kicks that you got from VoG the first few runs in the new raid. When you get to the level cap, the game isn't that much fun any more. TL:DR The 'reset' is happening whether we like it or not. GET OVER IT.
