Yeah the thing is people say "that weapon looks amazing" wether an exotic or raid weapon, it's addicting and people want it but can't get it resulting in them playing until they have what they want for now which in this case is how bungie is keeping players playing because they just want that one weapon.
And no, most people have 200+ coins and getting 200 marks is easy.

They could do whatever to make it hard, 10 shards + 200 marks was but an example. Honestly its been 2 minths i've been hunting for hawkmoon, now i really dont even care anymore. Been getting nothing but duplicates so in all honesty i kinda bored with destiny, i've come to terms with the fact i'll only be able to get it from xur when it is no longer exclusive
