Ok..I think Xur needs to be adjusted. GREAT backed idea. NOW with Patch 1.0.2?

I have made a poll under feedback: found here. same post but has a poll if you are interested: I am sorry for 2 posts...I am not sure how to add a poll to an existing thread. http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/70867499 EDIT: This is my own opinion. Later in the post you can back it or not. OR something else you would like/if anything/ It does not have to be necessarily what I think should happen ( though many like the idea) Getting the community talking; constructively, is important. . I feel something needs to be changed. So the patch is out! For people backing the fact that they have horrible luck with drops. The Cyptarc should get you what is advertised ( if not better) within the engram tier. Now, what are your thoughts on my plan with this patch implemented on top of it? I originally made a post asking if Xur should be changed. It had mixed reviews. As replies came in, I added to the idea and have come up with this: ( My original post is after the pitch) In no way is this a malicious post or anything. It is a conversation piece. I am actually a moderator for EA Sports. Madden mostly. I love all types of games and the forum communities just as much. Tons of opinions and tons of conversation. This is one of those. The best middle ground solution is this: Class Armor and the one engram is fine. Instead of one weapon every week. Xur needs to sell ONE exotic weapon bounty per week. His own bounty. Some sort of "Agent on the nine bounty" Let me explain: This does so much! A) Guardians will not be running around with the same guns. ( Suros, Gjallarhorn) Before you know it. Everyone is shooting lasers and Cluster homing missiles at every control objective. B) RNG will actually be good for this. People get different guns. C) it will give you something to grind for the week. You have 1 week to get it done. It also adds new gameplay for the week along with the nightfall,daily etc. Bungie can make it one of two ways: 1) get the bounty done and turn it into the bounty guy at any point during the week. This is more time safe. Go as you go type thing. 2) My favorite option. You have to turn the bounty back into Xur. This gives the hardcore gamer the challenge of completing the bounty in 1 or 2 days. The casual gamer can have the week. This is PERFECT. People get different guns. Bungie knows when we are sleeping and knows when we are awake. They know how many coins the average gamer earns each day. How many hours we take to complete bounties/strikes/raids. I am sure they can balance this thing out to be great. Bungie can find a happy medium for the weapon bounty. Be it X amount of coins or maybe Coins and Motes. Something. It should be a tad higher than what we are used to now. But not outrageous. Who knows, maybe if you can not complete the bounty. Like lets say you do not like the PVP parts or it is too hard for you ... maybe Bungie can implement a return to Xur? Who knows? Maybe the following week you can turn in the incomplete bounty. And get a small ( i mean small ) reimbursement for what you have done on the bounty? ( As in, get SOME strange coins back)??? In short. Class gear is ok. Maybe do a small price hike. This way people can choose if they want to buy an armor piece or save another week to go for a "Nine bounty" the following week. Mainly. Instead of 1 weapon. (This week the suros) have 1 bounty. For a random weapon. I think we should push the idea!! I do want to make this post. constructive. I have added a poll. After reading my little post. Please state your mind of Why Xur needs to be/ does not need to be adjusted. If you do think he does in some way. Then post how you should think he should be. Support your claims. No one is wrong. I have cleaned up my OP. Again, please post your opinions Guardians! I love him...but he needs to be adjusted IMO. Day 2 of the game, I found someone with the Suros Regime. Such a fantastic gun. I knew from that day, that is what I will be striving for. That was all I wanted. That is what I grinded for. Bungie said that when players got exotics, others would beg the question:" where did you get that?" "what adventure did you do to obtain that?" Long and short answer as of now : I was at the tower on the weekend. Exotics are supposed to be rare, highly coveted, and the player can have some bragging rights. Sure they are random, but there is also a sense of accomplishment for some of them ( EXAMPLE: Exotic weapon bounty) With that, Xur needs to be adjusted IMO. Jack the prices a bit. Here is why: ANOTHER HUGE ISSUE FOR ME: People have the their vault. Some have 3 active characters. They can do the nightfall/daily 3 times basically And farm coins. That is cool and all. But listen, when you can get a ton of coins each week though the characters. Then store them in your vault, only to store them so your main character has almost enough to buy every single things XUR can offer. I have an issue with that. It kind takes the integrity away from the vendor. Member Washboat said it best: "Simple fix: Make it impossible to share coins between characters. I have 19 coins right now accumulated from three characters over the past few days. Tuesday I'm going to do the weekly heroic on two characters and then I'll have enough to buy Xur's gun and class item for the hunter. If I couldn't share coins then I'd have to actually work to get those extra coins. They need to also raise the price a little. It should be a tough choice every weekend to decide which "exotic" I take that week. As of right now the hardest part is finding him in the tower" Basically Gear is ok. But, Maybe ban the sharing of coins and motes? As in, the coins are for the CURRENT character and can not be shared? That would be huge. Prices can stay the same on Xurs gear. As long as we are unable to share coins in the vault between characters. How many coins for the the weekly? You are only supposed to do once. But A lot do it 3 times, then move them to one location. What was supposed to be kind of like a Ferrari dealership.....tuned into a Wal-Mart. If you catch that relation. I just moved across the country and my friends told me. "He has your gun bro" (Suros Regime) I flipped lol. I needed 2 coins and no way of logging on. My friend got on for me and took care of it. I can not use it until Wednesday. With this time I have. I have reflected. Sure it is awesome that I have the gun I have wanted. Then I started thinking. ..what about the original Suros users? The ones that got it out on an adventure? The ones that got it " legit". Legit meaning: He got it truly random. Beating a boss, random drop, crucible drop. Luck of the draw. He got lucky. And got an AWESOME gun. You have to think. The pure luck of getting the gun. You have a hard chance of getting an exotic in the first place. Be it from the cryptarc or from a strike. THEN lets say there are 6 exotics for everything your guardian can have. Six different primary, special, heavy. Then six different helmets, chests, etc. So at least 40 exotics. THEN RNG the suros. Odds are crazy. I feel bad for the guys that already had it. A gun that is truly special. One they lucked out on.....Now everyone has it. Do not think I am against Xur. Xur is a sure fire way for some to at least get their hands on exotics. Which is totally fine. However. When it comes to guns....I would like their to be a RNG for them too. Along with hard work. Work that will stretch out the week. I will tell you this. Bungie DOES read these forums. The community wanted that gun. Whenever a poll came up or a topic was created in" what do you want Xur to bring this weekend". Over 60% said the Suros. They delivered. With that said. I do not know what it is...but somehow adjust him. Members are breaking down strikes and coin rewards etc. ms. When you start breaking that down, along with other created characters. It needs to be adjusted IMO. In conclusion, do we want this for our game? I think Xur needs a huge overhaul. I just think that he is a HUGE part of the game at this time. Grinding for coins is putting in work. You can't make everyone happy. Like I said... just a little convo piece. Why not sell exotic bounties? I would be totally down for that. You work. Then you work some more. A little added sense of accomplishment. Thoughts Guardians? Here is an example of bragging rights. Thanks to member Cyriacus. He found the video i was speaking of and his comment is true. "The gun he got from VOG Hard was Vex Mythoclast. No it should not be nerfed for PVP he earned it." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQeIlojbuz0#t=33 my friend showed me a video of a gun a guy got from beating VOG on hard. I mean the gun rips. I do not know the gun name,but it is special. It is only obtained from a RNG drop on hard. Thank you for your time. Your insight is needed.
