Let's be honest... Nobody cares where anyone got their exotic nor how they obtained it at this point. All that anyone cares about is being able to get one for themselves. You're story with Red Death is great but honestly who do you think is going to be asking "hey where'd you get your Red Death from?"... Exactly, no one will. I'm glad Xur sells exotics for coins otherwise I'd have friends still without an exotic of any kind who have spent similar amounts of time on this game as I have, and to say they haven't earns there's is absolute BS!
