Didn't the second post here about it just say there will be new versions of the old exotics post TTK same as HOW did it?
You just won't be able to fully upgrade them, I guess?
She tossed her Fatebringer aside for Hawkmoon who she promptly tossed aside for The Last Word.Are you holding the horn in one hand and fatebringer in the other?
It's not a valid excuse though, Only gjallhorn could be construed as overpowered but the rest of the exotics are far from overpowered.
I really hope this is not true and it was misconstrued.

Uh oh looks like the thread sine wave is about to take a nosedive. I'm going to wait and see on how this one plays out before I rush to judgement.
Thanks Dave!
Thanks Dave!

They can take her hand cannons! But they will never pry her beautiful bone boots off! JUMP FOR DAYS! WAHHHHHHH! THE DAYS OUR NUMBERED!

They'll just back track and change it once the first major patch hits after TTK.

Wow....no year 1 exotics are going to be upgraded?
So, here..... lets look at it this way.... PS4 exclusives are finally going to be available on xbox this Sept 15th, right? After a year of waiting our fellow xbros are getting Hawkmoon, Monte Carlo, and the 4th Horseman.... Ok.....awesome..... cool.
BUT WAIT!
You can't upgrade them now!
I don't typically get upset on here, but this is such a bullshit fucking move if it's true...

Exactly this.
This feels like their solution to keep us playing TTK for as long as possible. A whole new grind with a "promise" for better loot drops.
Again, even if I somehow manage to get everything and do everything in this game I am not going to stop playing it. Com'on Bungie.
So after everyone deletes all their exotics? Talk about a shitstorm

That tweet did specifically mention "exotic weapons" so who knows.
Bottom line: way too early right now. Need a lot more info, hopefully just a bad Tweet. Terrible decision if true, of course.

might as well just call it Destiny 2 and have us create new guardians.
I don't understand why they won't just explain how this works or stay quiet about it until their stream. Why answer that question?

i dont get it
Exotics are completely unique
Why drop them from the customization pool?
Makes no sense. I mean I know they are adding LOTS of new gear and all but it would be even better to have the option to mix and match the old with the new
I was ok with Legendaries being left behind but exotics?

Figure this out man. As I said originally, I have to believe this is a misunderstanding.
Won't post further on the matter until some official explanation is offered.
I have other games to play. Those boots can wait. They're not going anywhere.
Besides this Hunter doesn't need quad jump. I'm still badass without it.
the fusion thing appears to be pretty complicated so best shown and not told.
That's what I'm getting, I will do my best talking to youtubers there who had private time with Bungie, also DM'd cosmo,
I can 100% gaf account swear year one exotics cannot be upgraded in the form we have seen before.

Hahaha true. Rip todd.
Well, Light Level will no longer be a thing upon launch. That's all I know.

It's the only way.

Oh that's cool. No not really. This saddens me.
I am still going to get them because that completes my exotic collection but wow this news really sours me on the game right now.
That's such bullshit, I am a big defender of bungie and destiny but this is indefensible.

So...the light stuff is gone...but here's a new confusing/complicated way to upgrade stuff?
If true, LOL...someone over there won't let that system go.
I think Bungie really needs to rethink and revamp their Exotic design strategy. Exotics don't feel "exotic" or special or prestigious at all. Not only is every endgame player expected to carry them but they're also key to being competitive in PVP.
Exotics should be that tier of item that only a small minority of players obtain rather than the vast majority have sharded over and over again. They should work on their prestige IMO.

"Light level" will no longer exist, but Light will. It'll just be a separate stat from your Level, and will still affect how strong your character is.
Bungie's terrible PR continues unfortunately. They need to learn how to communicate either nothing at all, or all the details people want to know. Especially about progression systems with new expansions.
Please don't go down any dark alleyways! We need this info!
