Tl/Dr below. Ok so no hate is intended here. After scrolling all these forums which i do a good bit, its fun to see whats the buzz around here, i see all these people complaining that exotics are not as good as most legendary. This is true. But way back when, in the before, exotics were glorious. Truly fearful. Why? Because after 3 years and all the people here complaining about exotics, they got nerfed to shizz town. Now that bungie is more focused in destiny 2, they will probably take these into account next game. So is this games weapon tables all jacked up? Yes. Will this travel to d2? Hope not. But we will have to wait. TL/DR - We kept complaining about exotics in the before time and now that let certain legendaries overtake them, and they care more about d2. Btw anyone who says im too new at this, i been around since vanilla on the xbone. Just somewhat recently switched to ps4. Have fun!
