So, I've found that if I [i]start[/i] by addressing PvP misconceptions, they're more likely to understand the bigger argument I'm making. I'm not saying that [b][u]I[/u][/b] think PvP should matter that much (because it shouldn't, and I think PvE should take precedence), but trying to explain PvE-specific issues to PvP players just isn't effective. Gotta start somewhere! Haha :P

I get what your saying. Honestly though, bungie had to leave the old gear behind. If they didn't, they would have to add elemental to the new endgame weapons. Thats something they were trying to get away from. The truth, is that they hit a home run with the design of vog and all its gear. They have been trying to do it again with each expansion, but have come up short. I think thats why they've changed so many things. If they can get people focused enough on the new shiny stuff, they might forget the old stuff.
