Let's be real here for a minute, probably 5% of the Exotics in the game are actually worth a shit in serious end game activities and most of those we already have. There are Maybe two or three exotics released in this expansion that might Shake Up The Meta in any significant way. Most Exotics have only ever been useful for dicking around and having fun with. Most hardcore players don't care about anything other than best in class which has been and will continue being ikelos and sleeper or whisper. For armor you have Luna boots, Orpheus rig or nighthawk and now maybe shards and whatever Titans use... Having Exotic drop rates so low will have a similiar outcome to having them drop too often in that it will drive people away. As a hard core Destiny player I stopped caring about exotics during forsaken. With 12 exotic drops all being y1 Exotics, I have already beat all end game content and now am farming for curated god roll legendaries not Exotics. Curated god rolls were meant to be the end game farming not Exotics.....Bungie has all but confirmed this. I mean look at Destiny 1....Xur sold exptics from day1 and even sold the most OP one early on.

  • Wow, that sounds absolutely boring. Glad that I am not hardcore, I would burn out too quickly. I stopped caring as well, but only because the drop rate was so low that there wasn't any point. Wow, for the first time ever, I am actually glad that I have never touched Leviathan yet.

  • Yeah to me Destiny is most enjoyed by the "casual" which is a term I hate. The most fun I have in Destiny is jumping on for an hour or so and just messing around with clanmates, then staying in the party chat and popping in a different game for a bit. To me the grind drastically shortens the longevity of the game because it's more of a grind just for grinds sake, there isn't really a point to all the grind. The Destiny franchise is the first game in a long time that seems to almost turn into a job rather than hobby.

    Agreed. In the 1% time wasted on Destiny Forsaken clan (I’m retired), and haven’t seen an exotic that’s impressive outside 1000 voices. For the most part D2Y1 and Y2 legendaries cover it all for me (inaugural address and telesto baby!).

  • Exactly I use the sleeper until I got the curated bad omens, i use the curated trust, curated age old bond, curated chattering bone. I do like the malfeasance. Wish ender, ace, chaperone, lord of wolves, trinity ghoul, 2 tailed all dismantled after messing around with them. Like you said Curated legendaries are what you play for.

  • It was the same during D1 as well. I rarely had a reason to mess with my loadout
