Taken from eurogamer. "In other Destiny: Year Two news, Bungie has confirmed the existing set of Legendary level weapons and armour will not be upgradable any further. This means that current purple gear - even favourites such as Vault of Glass handcannon Fatebringer and Crota's End sniper Black Hammer - will soon become obsolete. "I definitely feel like some of our players are ready to play with some new toys," Smith concluded. "And we've built a whole bunch of new toys. There are definitely some weapons that you are going to find better versions of - there's going to be something that replaces that sniper rifle that you love." So why the hell are we spending so much time getting etheric light to level up our legendaries? .
