Year 1 Gear is Too Good To Be Left Behind
As the title states, a lot of the year 1 gear looks way too good to be collecting dust in our vaults. My personal favorite chest piece is the Braytech Researcher Robes. But without perks from year 2, be it on weapons or armor, these items are just inferior to anything you use from year 2. I would love it if there was a way for us to bring our older gear up to speed by giving them some year 2 rolls. Whether this means we have to reaquire it or just get it from the collection with a set roll of year 2 perks on them. This would give amazing looking sets like the faction gear, planetary vendor gear, and even the solstice armor (remember grinding for that? And then its obsolete the next week) some much needed love.

transmog! we need it. not for exotics maybe, but being able to change the look of gear to some other gear you have gotten even if it was green or blue... but the shaders wont work unless it is a purple you change appearance of.
-
Biggest problem with this is you can't even re obtain armor pieces from the Eververse store. If you happen to like the dragonfly cloak for the hunter for instance and it's in your collections you can't get it back. Ever. I understand the random roles part but at the same time exotics in your collections have fixed roles that you can get anytime. Seems ridiculous.
-
The thing yes the armour stuff is bad but what's annoying for me is gear you buy with bright dust or silver from the eververse store. If you've actually paid for the gear and they just make it redundant, that's so wrong! I just started playing properly again and went to get my winterhart and optimacy gear again and they have no perks?? It's insane. It honestly makes me not want to play. They have zero respect for their customers. I honestly feel -blam!- for even buying forsaken now - especially after how bad year 1 was. How many times will Bungie treat us like garbage before everyone just decides to NOT play! Go buy fallout 76 instead... I hear that's on sale now ;)
-
2 Odpowiedziyeah, they have to bring back all the old stuff sooner or later... i hope...
-
2 OdpowiedziI bet you at some point theyll reveal that year 1 weapons and armor will be brought up to year 2 BUT itll be locked behind the annual pass, meaning you have to purchase forsaken too..it just seems like an easy money grab and too good of an opportunity for them to miss. 🤐😴
-
Well, you kind of got your wish. It looks like the black armory world drops are just year 1 weapons.
-
Honestly, when Bungie has changed armor/weapon systems in the past, the changes would have been so much more widely well received if they would have just created a conversion path for all gear. Bungie really needs to stop thinking "leave it behind, cuz making video games is hard" and start thinking "we'll always carry gear forward with conversions". It's the right customer service thing to do. Granted, people would complain about the conversion. People will always complain. [i]But, something is ultimately better than nothing.[/i] In the end, more people would be happy. ...and from a technical perspective, I'm a software developer. It really isn't that hard to come up with some kind of one-time conversion for old gear. I know Destiny at least partially deals with a SQL back-end, meaning all of our crap is one single place and all of it could be upgraded at one time, with one pass via one singular script. Of course, I'm simplifying it. But this is standard ETL stuff (ETL = Extract, Transform, Load)... which is a core quality of any SQL developer on any SQL platform. The only real challenge is that someone needs to sit down and make actual decisions on what those conversion paths look like... and that's what I'm guessing Bungie is unwilling to do.

I just use the new monarchy gear no problem

1 OdpowiedźA recent interview. "Will you be bringing back more Year One Legendary gear and armour to bulk out the loot pool? Deej: Don’t need to."
-
Yeah it’s silly that you can still get drops of useless year one shit . Yeah planetary venders pretty much useless. It’s seriously messed up and ass backwards .

Edytowany przez użytkownika TJ_Dot: 11/29/2018 6:21:32 AMI have to remember that we've gone a year without perks to being fine still not using any sometimes. As for that set, I just don't have an exotic for it that really goes with that isn't already used up elsewhere. Used to be Karnstein, but after inspecting the Symmetrist set with it, I like it a lot. Perks are a byproduct benefit. Wish I could take screenshots of all my outfits in a way that wouldn't get boring because the game has no tools Captura anyone?
-
Yep I spent so long crafting my perfect road scout/space gunslinger for my hunter only to be forced to dismantle it when Y2 came around. The Dare armor now is a solid look but still. Kinda wish I could bring back my fave Y1 look.
-
This is why we need style templates. So when we collect gear we can wear the STYLE of it if we want to. I think its dumb you are forced to where the style of the gear you are wearing.
-
T1 gear is nice but my Vanguard Dare Armor is better than any armor I’ve seen so far imho. But would love to see Y1 gets random rolls still (especially for stuff like CoO forge weapons, trials weapons, etc.)
-
I much preferred the look of my FWC Hunter armor over what's available now.
-
Said no one ever...
-
don't worry they'll bring it back and call it new content. just looked at the database at the "new" weapons coming in season of the forge, 10 legendary's, 8 of them are reskin's or year 1 weapons.
-
It's alllll D1 again. Bungie kills all your gear and doesnt care at all. Then, 1 to 2 years later, they bring them back as reskins and sell them as "NEW" stuff.
-
Don't worry, this game seems to be using the D1 formula, for Year 3 their next paid major DLC will feature Year 1 items that have been updated finally into the new system.

1 OdpowiedźEdytowany przez użytkownika alterin: 11/27/2018 5:08:17 PMIt's just insane to me that Bungie refuses to do a simple cosmetic armor system. Makes the whole game needlessly frustrating. Edit: Oh look, Anthem is going to have it at launch. It won't take a "sequel" and 5 years of expansions. Do I sound bitter? I am. Combat and the systems around it are still excellent, but every inch of customization or choice is just like.... why?!?!
-
1 OdpowiedźThe planet vendors 100% should have updated gear that we can grind with random rolls. Also all year one weapons should be able to use the new weapon mods.
-
Well, the year 1 weapons are slowly being brought forward to have random rolls so I don't see why the armour hasn't been yet
-
It’s ok they are now needing Y1 stuff like the EP shotgun to make it less desirable...
-
You talking about Warmind gear. Please, correct the topic name, because vanilla D2 had an awfull fraction gear design(unlike the D1). Weapon and armor from EP and Eververs armor of the Warmind DLC are realy good designed and deserve to have a new perks.
-
2 OdpowiedziI spent a LOT of time grinding EP for the full armour sets for all three classes only for them to become obsolete, the Titan set was awesome looking and compared to most of the Y2 stuff it looks so much better. Also why can't we mod Y1 weapons? I'm not asking for all Y1 weapons to be put through the random roll treatment but not being able to add mods to them is just annoying as hell.
-
I for one am in total agreement! Along with giving us a bigger loot pool, it’ll also break up the monotony of Year 2 guardians. Everyone looks the same because everyone only has the same 3 sets to choose from. I need my Frumious Hunter Set back! Like make old gear rewards for completing Heroic Daily Storie Missions, you get NOTING from doing those. I don’t see any negative in updating the year 1 gear. It’s a quick fix that’ll give the community a lot more freedom.
