THE ONLY EXOTIC WEAPONS YOU CAN TRULY "EARN"

Bad Juju Thorn Super Good Advice Pocket Infinity Invective Dregs Promise Queenbreakers Bow Lord of Wolves (ANY WEAPON YOU GET AWARDED AFTER YOU COMPLETE THE BOUNTY IN THE TOWER/REEF) Why? Because you are actively working to get said weapon, and 100% know that you will get it once the bounty is complete. If you're relying on RNG to INSTANTLY get a weapon, it's not earned, it's given. Props to everyone who is skilled enough to get all of the Vanilla Destiny Exotic bounty Exotics. Hopefully, ALL exotics will have to be earned through a bounty, come TTK. Then we will see who the real guardians are.

  • The only weapons you can earn would be the vendor weapons and Iron Banner tier 4 & 5.

    • And what if Someone for the life of them can't get a certain exotic bounty to drop. It does have a little bit more sense of achievement but still

    • I'm tired of these posts.. Ok Getting the bounty is still RNG I got one with one bounty before and one with 60+ . Let's talk Thunderlord, Hardlight, ETC. If you had trouble in a nightfall and received a exotic it's still damn well earning it. Hard to get void kills for thorn? If your having trouble with that then you would have trouble with void nightfall thus not earning anything in it if you get carried or cheesed it.

    • One does not simply "earn" an exotic thorn without getting very pissed off at the last chaleng because you cant find the stupid wizard thats supposed to spawn.

      • Not at all. The bounties themselves are a random drop. Did you forget that too?

          Earn •(of a person) obtain (money) in return for labor or services. •(of an activity or action) cause (someone) to obtain (money). "this latest win earned them $50,000 in prize money" •(of capital invested) gain (money) as interest or profit. These are the three definitions of earn. Examining the first definition, the "money" is the strange coins/exotics we get from buying things from Xur/doing exotic bounties.. We are obviously the people. The "labor or services" is obviously the weeklies/exotic bounties etc. we do. So by definition, we earn everything Examining the second definition, the "action or activity" is the raid, PoE, even going last in a game of the crucible. We are the "someone" and the "money" is the loot. Notice how it says the activity caused someone to obtain money as a definition of earn. Is that not [i]exactly[/i] what we do? The example "this latest win earned them $50,000 in prize money" under the definition of earned proves that RNG is an acceptable form of earning. Some people often refer the RNG as playing the lotto. If this is true, then this example in the definition proves that's fine. Since everything is subject to random in Destiny, either everything is earned, or nothing is.

                • this post is truly foolish. You are telling me that in a game where rng is the primary source of all of your stuff that only a certain amount of it is skill??? I understand your point but in this game you truly make your own luck because no gun is straight given to you. No matter what you did, nightfall/raid/crucible. YOU STILL DID SOMETHING FOR IT. And newsflash, those bounties get dropped randomly so dont tell me that they are all skill.

                    • Thorn and Necrochasm IMO. Necrochasm due to it's stringent requirements and 3 stage process (not to mention the RNG). Thorn for the PvP and Xyor aspect of it. All other exotic bounties are a joke in comparison, although the Thorn PvP portion can be knocked out with relative ease nowadays.

                    • So buying an exotic with coins that you earned for completing weekly strikes isn't earned?
