Ok. I've got a different thread going trying to figure out if my current vault is going to be trash. From that and other threads I think I've got this figured out.
Bungie is changing Destiny to a model where all armor and all weapons are basically seasonal. When EoF releases, you can choose to run old loot and not gain DR or damage bonuses, or you can get new loot and gain DR and damage bonuses.
The when Renegades releases, all the stuff you just acquired may still be tier 5, but you'll lose the DR and damage bonuses. So you need to re-grind to replace all of that T5 stuff you just spent 6 months earning.
If that's going to be the game model, why don't they just come out and say it? This model probably doesn't impact the hardcore players and streamers much. But what about the other 90% of the community? My gut says why play a looter-shooter where your loot is temporary?

1 ReplyThe grinding doesn't concern me the main issue is how much of these stats will affect pvp with the damage boost because pvp is already broken and too chaotic and it's been getting worse over the years and this is just more fuel to it. *If we are honestly doing a sunsetting reset like this then Pvp needs to have its own exclusive armor that doesn't affect it anyway from PvE buffs Pvp armor should only boost *Shield *Grenade (on the fence about this) lol *Melee *Class *Weapons(reload & handling) only *Wearing PvE armor in Pvp you take increased damage from weapons and abilities but less with Pvp armor This may calm the craziness going on and super up time on abilities and actually have a balance between both.
