Destiny: Wot I think (Destiny)

I think this is a misinterpretation of the difficulty selection screen. The bar graphs display a percentage for each weapon. That's not how much it's being lowered, but how powerful relative to par it is. So if you switch to Legend and it says "Machine gun, -33%", that doesn't mean your gun is being lowered by a third, it means that Bungie thinks your gun is ⅔ as powerful as it should be in order to perform comfortably on that difficulty.

Yeah I am pretty sure this is how it works, going to a more powerful weapon changed my percentage for my auto rifle from -15% to +7%.
