But if we want to use the items we enjoy we are forced to do this:
DLC maxed exotic with higher dmg is here - top
.
.
.
.
Vanilla maxed exotic is here - middle
.
.
.
.
Brand new unlevelled Exotic is here - bottom
If anyone who has already maxed their favourite exotics wants to use them at max potential they have to now go:
Bottom
Middle
Bottom
Middle
Top
While those who haven't put as much effort in get to go
Bottom
Middle
Top
It's not ok because we got to enjoy it for x amount of time, because we earnt that enjoyment by going through the arduous levelling process already.
We're not earning any unique new experience by forcing ourselves through the levelling process again. We're simply earning a little more damage that will let us use our favourite gear in higher level content, but for the privilege of that we're forced to go through what we've already been through. This isn't vertical, this is sadistic.
I don't know how much clearer this can be written.
Some please help me here!
