I remember in one of the Twitch streams that since factions are no longer tied to class items that we'll be able to use which ever one we think looks the best. That really isn't the case though. Already ran into a situation where a cooler looking piece had worse armor stats than an "ugly" piece. So if we want the better armor, we have to wear the "ugly" one. I put ugly in quotes because I know everyone's tastes are different, but you get the point.

3 RespuestasEditado por A KOOL POP TART: 9/12/2015 6:28:33 PMFor crucible, armor and weapon stats are balanced out so that everyone does the same about of damage regardless if they are wearing starter armor or fully ascended legendary gear. Because of that balance, I can run a Titan with scoutmail gauntlets and a helmet, without having to worry about getting my butt kicked. The only time armor stats really count is in Iron Banner or in PVE where you should really focus on functionality instead of how cool you look.

I agree. Cloaks having light level is stupid. I can understand perks though.

10 RespuestasI was incredibly disappointed when my old school cloak of the sixth reign became completely worthless overnight.

2 RespuestasThe skolas class items give 3 measly defense, the trials and iron banner class items give 30. What determines which legendary or endgame class items provide more or less defense?
-
3 RespuestasI expect it will be better at cap, more variety. But I'm sad about the IB version 2 hunter cloak. My favorite cloak has become just a table cloth. I mean, my table is armored pretty well now, just not endgame armored, ya know?

2 RespuestasBumperCarBumps. Yea i do not want the uniform effect. I agree with this thread, Bungie can not ignore this. All amors should go up accordingly, for instance, Legendary armors level go up via etheric light.

1 RespuestaEditado por Eidolbyssus, Ahamkara: 9/11/2015 5:24:22 AMBumped. I was trying to go for a whole Fallen look on my Titan, have the Kellslayer's armor and the Mark of the Wolves. Cryptographic looks amazing on it. 9 hours of downloading 5 compat packs later, my Mark of the Dauntless is better than the one I want. It's really depressing because I spent a month and a half just running through the PoE to get the armor cores and House Judgement rep. Now it was almost completely worthless.

1 RespuestaOne more reason to need transmog

3 RespuestasYep. We went from wearing a specific item for the sake of rep to wearing a specific item for the sake of defense/perks. They made even a cosmetic year one item obsolete. I love my vault cloak but it's worthless. People will still be wearing the same handful of items. They hinder uniqueness and customization too much.

1 RespuestaI have to guess its probably since the loot table is currently locked. You won't feel as forced once they start dropping.

1 RespuestaI agree 100%. Why do I have to wear the cloak, bond, or mark they want me to wear? Those were the one things that made you stand out. I know they have infusion, but that is only for year 2 gear. Why am I forced to abandon my trials cloaks? My trophies from the raids I did? Or any other of the class items I find especially cool from year 1?
-
I'm curious if this was intended or if this was something that was simply overlooked. I wish I could remember the Twitch to go back and quote exactly what was said but I remember the customization aspect being touted since we were no longer tied to the faction item. This actually ends up being more restrictive. Is there something we don't know? Is it that once we're level 40 and have better armor and weapons that class item stats will no longer matter?

2 RespuestasI feel more limited now than before. Could just throw the faction piece on turning in bounties.
