lots of new infos (Destiny)

On the other hand, if you can upgrade your weapon in a weekend, what's the point in making you grind it at all?

Well, I can't think of a straight-up reason, but a few roundabouts.

1) Giving you the weapon maxed out from the get-go might make setting up OP builds too easy too fast, so even the constant balancing won't be able to catch up.

2) This way forces you to get used to the weapon before getting it maxed out. I have no idea how helpful this is, but it is a reason.

3) Because PLAYER INVESTMENT! (Seriously, though, it might be in the contract, so they sort of followed the contract while keeping most of us happy).
