[b]EDIT[/b]: Alright maybe not to "win" but certainly to "gain an advantage very quickly over non paying users" and undermine players who earn their gear through grinding legitimately. Regarding the "cosmetic" armor. You can now buy as much armor as you want until you get the perfect stat/perk roll Then due to the new infusion system, you can bring that perfectly crafted armor into the end game at top light level EXAMPLE: So if you get a 320 drop from King's fall now, you don't like the stats too much and you deal because that's the highest the armor can go. Or you infused one piece of gear you EARNED through another activity. Now I buy 100 armor pieces until I get a perfect set of stats/perks and then infuse it with the top light level drop I get. So before you had to settle and now you can pay to optimize your gear set. EXAMPLE 2 You slave away every week for the hope of a chest piece with a high DIS/STRENGTH roll with rocket launcher ammo and solar armor for a chestpiece for your Sunsinger warlock. It takes you ages to play enough to get one to drop with those stats/perks and looks good. You do a couple of raids and infuse that thing to 320 after infusing it multiple times. Someone else just payed 200 Silver to instantly receive the same chestpiece. They do a raid and now make it the same light level as yours. They paid to get a perfect chestpiece with no work that a free user has to hope for in a drop after playing the game for a long time. How can you guys not see the pay to get ahead aspect of that? A paying user gets the same gear a free user does at a much faster rate with less work to get the gear, with the almost the same work to infuse it. Oh if you don't know the new infusion is 100%. So a 335 gear infused into 3 gear is 335. Edit 2: "YOU RETARD IT'S ONLY 3 LIGHT! HOW IS THAT PAY TO WIN? WHAT AN IDIOT!" ^People in this thread who didn't read the post and don't see the real issues about what this means both now and for the future of this game going right over their heads because they are too busy thinking what emote they should buy to distract them from the taste of Bungie's cock in their mouths EDIT 3: HAHA -blam!- ALL OF YOU SAYING THAT THE GEAR HAS 0 STATS. THE WEEKLY UPDATE SAYS THAT ALL GEAR WILL HAVE THE PERKS AND STATS AT RANDOM AND NOT TAKE ON THE STATS OF THE GEAR INFUSED. CALLING ME A MORON WHEN I WAS RIGHT AND ALL OF YOU WERE WRONG.
