If the rewards were earned via achievements or tickets like TOO, then fine. That would work because they would be built for that expansion, and if you didn't get and use them, that's your fault.
But RNG has people like me with plenty of VoGs [i]still[/i] looking for 1st Fatebringer. [i]Still[/i] looking for my 1st Vision of Confluence. All great guns by most accounts.
[i]IF[/i] they drop, the shelf life of these weapons are 9/15/15. Effectively negating [u]all[/u] my time invested hoping to get one. Because now, what's the point? 10 months of grind, just wiped out.
I mean, really, I won't be able to keep them anyways because vault space.
But had I been able to use progress as a way to insure my weapon drop, my time would have had value, the weapons would have been able to have their moments in the spotlight if equally available (no dumb max Gally LFGs would exist).
I personally think having an ascension mechanism up until Destiny 2 full release is the right way forward. There's only TTK and two more minor DLCs. I don't see where bringing all guns available along is such a big deal.

Well said, it is because of this issue with current weapon progression that I've pretty much given up playing...what is the point

Thank you so much for that. I'm in tears over here. So. Much. Truth. I suspect Bungie will nerf YouTube next.
