It needed to be said, so I'll be the one to say it, cuz IDGAF what people think. All you people crying about how you "earned" your (Insert Exotic Here) from RNG as opposed to buying it from Xur, you're all nothing but hipsters. They might as well open up a Starbucks in the Tower for you to chat about how you got the Suros Regime first over Pumpkin Spice Lattes. The Speaker will start selling Hunter ascots, Titan skinny jeans and Warlock cardigans just for your uppity asses.
Gimme a f'king break. Nobody earns anything, it's all REWARDS. Know the difference.
[i]EDIT: Top of the trending page? Nice. Means that many agree that this is ridiculous, and many others are butthurt because they've been called out. The guilty will take offense. Everyone else, have a laugh on me. See you starside, Guardians...and The Speaker now has sizes up to 4XL for you Big & Tall people.
EDIT- Necrobumped for IceBreaker sale #2. 1/16/2015
EDIT- Necrobumped for HoPF sale. 2/27/2015[/i]

Necrobumped for current events. It's kinda comical too. The last time there was so much of an uproar was the last time Xur sold the Icebreaker. LOL [i]*Still waiting for those ascots, Speaker.[/i]

The Necrobump was much needed

So true

I earned my herpes. I didn't just go and get them from Xur or some random. I don't really know. I just don't know where I got them. At least they're exotic herpes.
-
Xur isn't earning though....
-
This man gets it, a applaud you, may exotics come your way good sir,and as for "whiners", exotic toasters for you...

Edited by MonkeyKaptain: 11/13/2014 6:32:02 PMThere is no "earning" per se when RNG is involved. Just because you are guaranteed 9 coins per character in weekly does not mean you are guaranteed to get the exotic you desire from Xur. There is still a lot of waiting for that potential moment that he will sell it. I have every warlock exotic, I guess I earned it. No, no I did not. Even gathering up 46 motes each week that Xur sold the exotic chest engram only to finally get Heart of Praxic Fire the third week he sold it, I still don't believe I earned Jack. RNG simply favored me that day. Nothing else is earned unless you know you are going to get it (such as exotic bounties). You either receive something or you don't receive it.

RNGesus has gifted me with the Truth, Thunderlord, and The Last Word. I will follow his footstep and give the number one player a Khvostov 7G-02 if I am ever worthy of his brilliance

The hipsters annoy me when they say "you bought it from xur, you didn't even earn it, I got mine from completing a nightfall" My response to the stupid hipster is that "Look, you did one nightfall and got it as a drop, I completed a nightfall and didn't get it, completed the weekly strike on lvl 28 hard at level 27 and got 9 strange coins and them proceeded to level an entire new character to 20 just to transfer the gear and do the nightfall and weekly again" Then I said "You completed one -blam!-ing nightfall for your stupid exotic, I completed Two nightfalls, two weekly strikes and the entire set of story missions just to be able to buy it from xur, so I did god damn earn it, I did way more work than you so -blam!- off and get out of my party chat" And then I kicked him from the raid and had him replaced.
-
You my friend know whats up.<3
-
Very true bro they are just that besides all that xur doesn't even sell guns you have to earn he sells random drops
-
Omg, this is actually funny to me.
-
-blam!-ing brilliant
-
Lol, love it. One thing, though: hipsters rarely frequent Starbucks, if at all. They're more into the "This coffee is my own homemade grew-and-brew recipe which is locally sourced from my backyard compost bin" scene. Their coffee mugs are likely made of deconstructed typewriters. ;)
-
I don't think i "earned" anything. But i DO think that Xür selling exotics(at least for that price), takes out the feeling of the item actually being well....exotic
-
Edited by Wretch1d: 10/17/2014 3:35:16 AMi saw someone for the first time yesterday EARN an exotic....the first time.....the first time, the first -blam!-ing time.......ive been playing non stop since it came out......all hail Xur, the only reason i have some exotics, now lets stop arguing about that and get a petition going for us to be allowed to wear more than one
-
You don't earn anything it's RNG it's all random.
-
I was disappointed when I bought the ice breaker then the next day I "earned" it on the nightfall. I figured I better do both so I can be cool in both worlds
-
Xur selling the ice breaker. It no longer exotic. Time to dismantle. I had a good month with it.
-
what confuses me about these people is : how is me buying it from Xur NOT earning it ? quite sure it takes more time getting those coins than lucking out in Crucible or Engram .......
-
hipster would be the least of my worries but what would we call you? unskilled casual trash noob dumb ass retard
-
I earned all those strange coins it cost, in crucible and weeklys. I actually did earn my expensive weapon, not just rely on the charity of a random dice roll.
