What is the point of having 2+ of the same Exotic Weapon?

Why have 2 Ghorns or 2 P&T? It makes sense if they were rerollable or they gave different stats like the Armor will sometimes give better Disp or Int than current Armor of same kind. But whats the point of two of the same exotics guns. Some guy said he had 3 Thorns. Why would you go thru that bounty 3 times. Another example is of a player who posted for more Vault space... But he had 2 TLW and 3 Hawkmoons. Why?

    • I keep dupes of the guns I get the most use out of (TLW, Icebreaker, Invective...). I like to keep them in each character. It saves me time to swap in and out of the vault. I also keep dupes of lesser-liked exotic weapons; I save them until I can unlock that top right node with XP-- that way it nets you [b]2 exotic shards [/b]when you discard.

      • Idk, if you have the time to level duplicate exotics, then go for it. It only takes a minute to transfer weapons through the app, personally i don't see the point.

      • For multiple characters? This is sort of a dumb question..I think it's obvious. Who wants to keep switching weapons back and forth between charcters. I do it since I don't have multiple exotics and its annoying af

        Switching weapons is a pain in the ass. Also I got really bored and had a void messenger so I was like "-blam!- it I'll do the bounty" I think I had like 5 thorns

      • One for each character... Switching weapons is still a pain even with the apps.

        It allows you to not have to switch weapons around you use a lot, I use Fate Vision Gjally and blackhammer a lot so I have one on each character, this way I do not have to switch them between characters making it easier and faster going to new characters and giving me more room to switch and store more guns in the vault because I do not need the space to switch weapons back and forth. Now for having more then 3 of a gun, that is just stupid and a waste of space.

        • No point. Moving weapons is easy.

          • Exotics are easy to ascend and it saves doing a lot of swapping. I also keep 3x Blackhammer, Fatebringer and Corrective Measures.
