Starfang does not get imported. While I know many of you see it as a great and/or powerful weapon (which it is in DA:O), it quicky becomes "out-powered" by new weapons in Awakening.
Still, I'm sure some people will spend a lot of time patching it into Awakening only to come to the same conclusion. 

Basically you just put out a great argument for why we should never buy any DLC from you.
And secondly, the patch only took a couple days to come out. It's a trivial fix to a trivial problem. If you guys handled it maturely, there wouldn't be this outrage. Instead, you come in, insult the customer by being condescending, literally rob us of our money and then tell us why it's a good thing.
Finally, no one but the player should decide which and what equipment becomes outdated or not. I did not wear a helmet in Origins because, frankly, they all were horrible. I didn't want to look at a fricking cone head all game. And that's just one example of one player deciding what equipment is useful or not. To take that choice away from me (and selectively at that) is just the height of arrogance. Why bother with equipment? Why not just give everyone the optimal equipment at each level or area? If you think we are too dumb and stupid to figure it out (judging by your message), then you might as well equip our characters.
