Request that old gear get Tiers
- Pretty self-explanatory
Armor Set Bonuses are excellent and make gear worth collecting in sets.
Thinking of all the possible Set Bonuses that could be applied to old gear if they got the update is actually quite interesting.

They will eventually. Every couple years Scumgie invalidates most, if not all, our gear. Then they reuse it with whatever new gimmick they are testing out over a decade into this franchise. That way they they cheap out on not making a new game. Just look at raids. Eventually they made all the weapons craftable so people would go back and grind the old raids. Now they will slowly go back and add tiers to the old raids to make people grind them all over again for the third time

Edited by Golden: 8/16/2025 8:05:16 PMTiering Old gear would be such a win to be honest. Would make all the old activities that are pretty much useless much more relevant and would allow for more ways to farm. Imagine a Tier 5 Holofoil Abyss defiant with updated perks dropping from Master Crota??? Or getting a T5 Holofoil fatebringer? They could even add new set bonuses to raid armor or dungeon armor, etc. Example, wearing 4 pieces of VoG armor could add this effect where getting 2-3 headshot kills causes enemies to explode and drop radiolaria pools that can spread if it kills an enemy. Also could add damage resistance to Vex enemies.

As more activities are added to the portal, more loot will be added as well.

This will absolutely happen in bits and pieces to pad out future seasonal content when seasons will inevitably bring even less content than they bring now. The Bungie way.
