As bungie has stated before: What makes an exotic what it is is that it behaves uniquely from other guns in the game.... not that it is more powerful. This definition of exotic is strait from the Webster dictionary: "strikingly, excitingly, or mysteriously different or unusual." So I disagree on the issue of exotics weapons power.... however... the fight I always pick both about legendary's and exotics is that they are far TOO COMMON in destiny. That is a part of why people run out of content so fast. Especially since three of coins were introduced, exotics come as often if not MORE often than legendary's... and that is not right.
