Fair enough. :P Can you give me [i]any[/i] reason why allowing [i]me[/i] to keep using older gear would negatively impact [i]your[/i] experience, though? Not being combative, I just haven't had a single person be able to give me a reason why ascending Year 1 gear is a [i]bad[/i] thing. If you want new gear, what's preventing you from simply [i]getting new gear[/i]? Why do current weapons need to be outdated for that to happen?
