EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU IS AN "EARNER"!
I'm sick of seeing people saying "you didn't earn level 30 RNG noob" or "lol kid thinks he earned his ice breaker"
I'm gonna start by referring back to the definition of earn, which is my own definition but feel free to look in a dictionary if you feel I'm incorrect
Earn: A payment/reward for work
Simple. The definition never outlines that to be considered "earned" the reward needs to be a specific type or decided in a particular way.
Now I'm going to show two examples of "random" rewards, one is earned one is not.
Example 1: You kindly mow your neighbours lawn, you don't know if/what you will get in return but you do it anyway. She decides to give you 10 dollars.
You EARNED that 10 dollars.
She decides to give you 20 dollars:
You EARNED that 20 dollars.
She decides just to say thank you
You EARNED her gratitude.
Example 2: You check your lotto ticket which was given to you for your birthday to discover you have become a multi-millionaire! You have been blessed by some serious luck! But you did not earn that money.
Anyone who has half a brain can see that Destiny is much more similar to example 1. You will never login to destiny to discover you've instantly been randomly given full raid gear and a vex mythoclast. Destiny sets out different jobs for you to complete, and each of those jobs has it's own loot table. You have to go out and work for it, all the RNG system dictates is how long it takes you to earn whatever you're trying to get.
You may be able to earn it in a day.
You may have to spend months earning it..
But no matter what you WILL EARN IT.
Edit: STOP USING EXPLOITS AS A COUNTER-ARGUEMENT. I'm talking about the RNG system in the game, not cheats that were never intended to be in there.

34 RepliesWrong. The current system is broken. I spent a couple of days doing tiger strikes trying to get a suros...I had a goal. Now, I bought the thing with strange coins and Xur... Know what Ill be doing now? Working to upgrade it...which is easy....then Ill be popping onto BF4. Why? Because Destiny hands everything to me and destroys any goals on progression. People whine about RNG... do they realize probability is involved? No. They dont. They dont want "chance"...they want guarantees so they can take advantage of the situation like the loot cave and atheon... so they can be OP create threads like this... and go back to COD in a few months... just so they can ruin another franchise. Examples of ruined games whom attempted to appease the noobs who wanted everything handed to them: Diablo III Destiny BOTH CREATED BY ACTIVISION... whom want to dumb down the mechanics so that they can alienate core gamers for the casuals...who have the attention spans of 15 yr old boys (who mostly need explosions and dumb stories like COD to be entertained). Truth.
