Good write up (Destiny)

I completely disagree with you here. Right now, if you have level 300 gear everywhere, you can equip a 170 weapon from year 1 and still come out as a 290 guardian. Which means your Fatebringer isn't dead; just sayin'. With your proposed solution, you're actually making things worse. Your complaint is that equipping a lower power gun makes you slightly less powerful, but if you split the light level into two, equipping that same lower power gun lowers your attack twice as much as in the current system, while not affecting your defense at all. That's not better.

Attack value factors most heavily into the calculation for weapons damage with the current system, or so I am told. I think if you tried using a 170 Fatebringer in the raid, you'd do little damage even if your overall light were high.
