How exactly is a random drop "earning" anything? What, we didn't "earn" our Strange Coins from doing weeklies? The way Destiny is set up, all this "earning" talk is nonsense. The only thing you could even try to say you've "earned" is raid gear, and even that's random. I've had a Ghorn for a long time, got it from a Nightfall, and I don't have a pretentious I "earned" it attitude about it. It was random, like most of the gear in this game. Doing something(Heroics), getting paid for it(Coins), and spending said reward on something(Xur), is the [b]definition[/b] of earning what you bought. Capitalism, baby!
