No. Just.... No.
That would make Xur pointless and everyone would have exotics instead of earning the strange coins/motes to get the stuff Xur sells

Is 91000 (13x7000) glimmer that easy to earn? That would be the cost for 1 exotic from Xur.

Not really, unless the vendor in question was only around on the same times as Xur himself, then it wouldnt be too hard. (Thanks to the glimmer increasing stuff, its relatively easy to get 91k if you sink the time into it)
-
Do you know how much glimmer is 5 hours of farming?
-
Depends where you go, to be honest. Dont forget there are places that are still readily farmable for glimmer (even if not engrams anymore). I cant say for sure, but i got like 8k glimmer (needed 12.5k for the special weapon ammo synthesis for Invective) doing the venus captain loop for about 2 hours with ether seeds active the whole time.
-
91k (original amount) is about 24 hours of that type of farming then, right?

(And honestly, if you have the grit to grind 12 hours a day the whole weekend, then whatever. You deserve the damn exotic xD), but i can almost guarantee youd find it hard to pull more then 10k an hour these days. Shrine of Oryx (when it had the tons of Majors) used to be good for glimmer, but they removed all but two majors from it, so its not as crazy anymore.

9 hours (assume even 6 to account for better methods) minimum constant farming is what I see right now but even that seems like a fair deal for an exotic. 130k might be a better price for 13 coins though just because of the assumption of significantly better methods in the future.
