Most of exotic weapons/armors are pretty damn useless.
Why you Bungie, put so much work in creating these exotic items (in the look/design of the weapon) and made their perks just bad and weak. These perks are not that great in most of the exotics and their stats (weapons) are also pretty bad when compared to legendary items.
So, we have just a few exotics that are useful and the rest is just sitting in the Vault. Eh!

I have about 7 exotics and havent found one yet to top a legenday... I second your post..Why grind for exotics when most are useless ! Here is my list Bad JuJu = Crap - My legendary scout rifle is better so JuJU sits waiting for buff if DLC comes out first will be dismantaled The Last word = OK fun but only use it on patrols Super Good advise = Dismantled jumped too much even with perks all perks Universal remote = Giving it a chance still upgradeing but not confident out of the box sux - takes 2 shots to kill up close except dregs Multi Tool = Ok but legendary with firefly perk is better Why grind for exotic when the only thing exotic about them is their engram color !
