So, what happens if (Destiny)

by Earendil, Tuesday, January 27, 2015, 09:20 (3396 days ago) @ Cody Miller

What happens if I die, and before resurrecting I swap either my heavy weapon OR my armor?
If you simply save off a number, swapping weapons will be very broken.
If you simply save a percentage, swapping armor will be very broken.

Both would be broken in a way that could be taken advantage of, or really screw the player. At least the way it stands right now it's predictable and there is no way to game the system.
