I'm struggling too (Destiny)

I'm struggling too. I incorrectly thought that since we completed Year 2 with Moments of Triumph that we were leaving all 335 gear frozen at Year 2 level and not bringing them into Rise of Iron. In preparation for 'Rise' I cleaned up my vault alot and infused many exotics to 335ish thinking they'd be frozen and capped out. I wasted a LOT of exotic shards, which I don't have many of, unlike others.

Yikes. Sorry about that. You should probably spend more time here. :)

I actually would have preferred it that everything was frozen like with Year 1. (I forget if Y1 gear overlapped into Y2 at all or not). It would have been easier for me if there was a clean break, now I feel like im in a gray area between Years.

Ugh, please don't say that. I mean, I get that you're annoyed that you wasted some stuff, and I'm sorry about it, but... they did that at the end of year 1 and I HATED it. I mean, ALL the stuff I liked was just immediately made (mostly) useless. Screw that. I don't ever want to do that again.

Im not good at infusing and not good at getting rid of gear. Ive got a vault with a lot of Y1 gear in it that I can't seem to part with because of the memories. Ive got a problem.

Not a problem as long as there's space. I still have a lot of my old raid weapons, and some of the too-good-for-their-own-good Y1 legendaries. The Devil You Know, Shadow Price, and a few others.

As of now I haven't infused any old 335 stuff up. I have a clear separation between old Taken King time period gear and new Rise of Iron gear. It feels like a line I don't want to cross but at some point im going to have to? Maybe once I get into the 360-380 range? The problem is that right now at 346 I have a bunch of capped blue 340 stuff that I could use as infusion fodder

I guess I don't really understand keeping the old stuff separate. Do you not like any of it? Seems odd since that's apparently the stuff you were using previously. ;) Unless you're just waiting until you're higher level, so that you infuse it once instead of multiple times? That I understand - saves resources. Although I don't really bother doing it myself for some reason.
