Will the exotics actually be exotic?
So, as any true shooter fan, I'm most excited about the massive palette of weapons we'll be choosing from... Primarily the exotics. Naturally, I think back to WoW, with their legendary (orange) weapons and items. It sounds pretty similar, but my fear is that the exotics in Destiny won't be as exotic as they sound. Just gleaning from what we've seen so far, (and I understand it was just a gameplay demo for us) we've seen two players simultaneously get exotics in a single drop (see the E3 gameplay demo and the Fallen Captain fight). That sounds more common than exotic. I'd like to see a struggle to achieve access to these weapons. A true challenge, not unlike the low drop rates seen in WoW in raids and boss battles and so forth. I'd hate to put the time into getting a truly great weapon, but then visiting the Tower and seeing 100 other Guardians with the same thing. What do you guys think?

The 2013 E3 Demo was a pre-alpha, standalone and heavy scripted instance designed to show off key features. Exotics are in fact very rare and hard to come by.

That area that we saw isn't truly in the game, as it will look different from what was shown. In the end, I'm not going to worry about it, and I encourage you don't either.

I want them to be rare enough that you get excited when you unlock one, but not so rare that you have to endlessly grind for them. They should have a decimal chance to drop from any enemy and this chance should increase with the strength of the enemies you face.

I want crazier guns. Not just a big LMG or a fancy looking rifle. I want a giant light axe or a laser beam or a gun that shoots shurikens

The gameplay was meant to give u those weapons every time, it was just a demo

The only place you can get exotic weapons from is the jungle... EXOTIC

I'd say the Exotics are going to take a lot more than a fight with Rixis to unlock. Perhaps the Strikes/Raids we've heard so much about will be where you find them. That said, a Guardian is only able to equip one Exotic piece of gear and one Exotic weapon at a time, so I think that will keep the number of repeat Exotics down to a minimum. Perhaps everyone may get Closing Time, for example, but two out of three Guardians would choose to have an Exotic in a different slot, and then the last third might pick a different Exotic entirely.

I get what your saying. There should be a difficulty level to finding an exotic. But I truly believe that they are over hyped. I mean if I use, for say, the psi umbra and I max it out, it will have just as much, if not more, power/ rarity, than an exotic weapon. It's like comparing a Ferrari to a Honda. The Ferrari is born fast, but, the Honda can surpass it with the right upgrades....

1 AntwortenI'm pretty sure that was just for the sake of the demo. I don't think you'll be seeing exotics drop like that every time you kill a boss. They just wanted to show off a couple of their more rare weapons. Don't trip chocolate chip.

Yes. I can't find the article but I remember them talking about how rare these exotics will be. This article, however, also makes me think we won't be getting to many. "Characters can only wield one exotic weapon and one exotic armor piece". [url=http://www.gameinformer.com/games/destiny/b/playstation4/archive/2014/04/04/a-player-39-s-journey.aspx?PostPageIndex=6]GameInformer Article[/url] If we were only able to equip one exotic weapon but had already picked up 5 then this would be the worse idea ever. My thinking is that we will get very few exotics so therefore we wont have that many to equip and now can only equip two.

I feel your concern. I too want them to be really rare. But also keep in mind. That the way i THINK this is gonna go, even if there not super rare. The different mods (speculation) will be another determining factor on these weapons. Like someone said bout honda vs ferrari argument. U can soup up say red death and its ridiculous. But a base one may be just average. I think mods may be the more important peices here. ( if theres mods at all. I think there will be )
