I shall not comment on the wisdom of using the exact same weapons and gear for all of Destiny 2. You do you bro.

I never played that game of trying to get god roll gear. I used the weapons that suited by playstyle and were fun to use. From almost day 1, I had an Arc Last Dance sidearm with Dragonfly (or whatever the perk was called at the time) and it was beautiful to destroy things with. Paired with my Young Ahamkara Spine armor that reloaded my weapons on melee. Plus the arc perk of getting that lightning bolt instant kill on melee. It was so much fun to run into the middle of a huge group and make everything explode. I miss it.

I still maintain this was the correct way to play the game.

When I chased the meta?
Enjoyment diminished.

When I played as a natural extension of my inclinations and was rewarded for it?
Bliss.

Obviously there is a little play between these two points on the spectrum, but getting pushed towards the meta never settled well.

I never did get rid of my "The Devil You Know" from D1. Even after it was meta'ed into oblivion. I think I got 50ish kills in one match with it once.
