People who chose "Yes" are too dependent on Y1 Xur. Although I do agree an exotic isn't meant to be an ultra rare weapon, but rather a weapon you can push yourself to acquire and KNOW the unique rolls it'll drop with . The Taken King is still only a couple weeks old. If you could breeze through the Black Spindle mission this early, I would say Shame on Bungie for undershooting higher tier rewards. It definitely took me several tries to find some synergy with a couple of nice LFG people, but coming out on top makes it that more satisfying. How desirable is an exotic if you click a Win button to acquire? This might seem opinionated, but it should only come across as harsh or offensive if you chose Yes.
