What do you think?
My personal opinion is that quest is better. I can be sure that my team will ALL get the exotic and that we worked together to get it.
Its more interactive than simply waiting and waiting and waiting for a drop that you're not even working for anymore past a certain point. Once you understand the mechanics of a raid it becomes easier so as each run passes you're having to work less and less for your exotic drop and it becomes more and more boring, even frustrating when you don't drop it or even worse, when others get DUPLICATES.
The quests Bungie have made for raid exotics have pretty much all been fun. I know I enjoyed the Divinity puzzles but Outbreak Prime in D1 was my favourite.
It feels like RNG raid exotics are simply meant to stretch out the amount of time we spend in the same content over several months, however I don't think Bungie realise that the longer we spend doing the same thing and getting nothing for our effort, the less fun it gets and the more frustrating the experience becomes.
Take it from someone who did 60 DSC runs for a clan member to get Eyes, not because they wanted the weapon but because they wanted the damn TITLE associated with it because collection badges are still a requirement for some reason.

Be careful what you wish for. Getting a team to go get divinity is not easy.
