Above is an addition to a Post I have create before, but I want to see the potential momentum this could have.
Please look at this: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/232128329?page=0&sort=0&showBanned=0&path=1
This details why I believe Exotic Gear should be prohibited from use in Competitive PVP Modes.
If you want to share your opinion, go ahead and place it below.

The #1 rule I go by in every FPS game, "If I get shit on by a gun, I put my big boy pants on and move on with the match." I don't whine or complain, every player has the opportunity to acquire a weapon of some sort whether it be exotic or whatever.
-
Thy should make exotics that are not allowed to be used in PVP or have the perks be different for game modes in terms of affective or in general. Many exotics feel lackluster now because they are not amped up because of PVP for the sake of competitive balance. Ruins exotics for PVP minus a few of them. They won't seperate the two though so it will never happen.
-
Every player has access to every piece of gear. It may take some people longer to get that gear, but they have access to it. If a PvP player choses NOT to use a particular Exotic, what ever their reason to not use is, that's on them. That decision should have absolutely ZERO bearing on how others chose to play their version of the game.

i guess everyone knew the outcome of that poll. im wondering how many years this community needs to learn that nerfing and removing doesnt help at all. probably never.

Lol you are kidding right?

Edited by monkyken: 9/19/2017 1:08:13 PMExotics aren't really that exotic now, and competitive is basically just different modes to standard, Trials is the real competition. End of the day in D1 there were plenty of non-legendaries that owned in PVP, I remember seeing a few rare snipers that just had the right perks, if it's not one thing it will always be another, everyone using Mida so no ones seeing what works against it well eg HC in close range. Suddenly mida will get nerfed or removed, everyone does a little shuffle dance people get killed by the same gun a few times start using it themselves rinse repeat, it's not about exotics its just the way destiny will always work.

The only reasons people use Mida: - Good weapon type (200 RPM Scout) - Is the most accessible 'Good' scout in the game - It can have prosecutor or uriel's gift equipped

While I agree it suck that almost everyone in pvp uses mida, banning exotics in pvp will not solve the issue. If you ban exotics there will be a god tier legendary, one that performs best and will dominate above all others. So you nerf that and now the next gun in line is the new meta. So they nerf that and buff some other legendary and that is the new god gun. The problem isnt exotics, its just how games work. The item with the best stats will always be the favourite
