Bungie, Whats the point of exotics anymore?
You keep making the legendary counterparts better when exotics SHOULD be king. The point of an exotic should be to set it apart from other weapons by making it feel more powerful when compared to non exotics yet you keep doing the opposite.
Most perks that used to be unique to exotics can now be found on legendaries. Example: suros regimes perks can be rolled on a legendary. hawkmoons can almost exactly be replicated as well. black spindle is literally a legendary turned exotic. the truth doesn't have a unique perks anymore either. Just to name a few.
They dont need to be OP but the amount of nerfs they receive do make them under powered compared to legendaries. Why waste an exotic slot if I can roll the same gun as a legendary or why hunt for it? The same perks that make some of these guns unique are the same perks that cause them to get destroyed by nerfs making them sponges. I agree no gun should be the end all be all but there is a line that should be drawn to make them more desirable

"Unique not better" That's their philosophy for exotics. I dont agree with it since exotics are a lot of work for a weapon that's "not better."
-
12 RespuestasFully agreed. It's time to lift the 1 exotic limit. Legendaries are better anyhow.
-
They're collectibles now, nothing more. Occasionally one rises up to be useful for a time, only for it to be nerfed into oblivion (OG Y1 Suros, Thorn, MIDA, Icebreaker, Universal Remote, etc.)
-
32 RespuestasIt should be common knowledge that the developers made exotic gear to be a unique and aesthetically different feel from the run-of-the-mill rare and legendary, but not to be more powerful. Do a fair amount of them perform less capably than similar legendary's? Perhaps. Does it matter? No, because you're not using them for strength or for power or for capability. You're using them because they are (A) Fun, (B) Interesting to use, (C) Look awesome, (D) Perform just a little bit different to spice things up.
-
I have to disagree. Exotics are supposed to look and function uniquely, but they aren't supposed to be the first choice for everything. The only exception to that is heavy weapons since that ammo is extremely limited anyways. TL;DR: Primary and Special exotics shouldn't be stronger than legendaries.
-
Exotics shouldn't be king. They should be on an even playing field. Unique not powerful.
-
1 RespuestaExotics are supposed to be unique and feel op without being op.

1 RespuestaRemove e of coins !! Back in year 1 we actually had to play to get the good stuff!! Those damn coins actually did more bad then good !!remove them please
-
You collect them and use the ones that receive buffs or chose the ones that have distinct advantages given their perks :-)
-
It's what made the game fun for me in year one.

Jus for one night, I'd love a Mida & Plan C & Truth all at the same time... jus for funs.. I'd go hunt every Taken ultra on every planet & whip them most exoticly 😉

43 Respuestashttp://www.dictionary.com/browse/exotic Please refer to sub-definitions nos. 2 and 3. Bungie has said time and again that it is NOT their intention that exotic weapons become these game-breaking God-weapons that are more powerful than anything else "in slot". Their purpose is to be a means by which to give players UNIQUE and UNUSUAL abilities that can't be obtained from any other weapon in the game. Therefore opening up unique---but once again not game-breaking----playstyle options. The combination of Universal Remote and No Back Up Plans with skating Defender Titans was becoming game-breaking in PVP. Which is why Bungie had to step in and nerf UR back into balance with the games other shotguns. Because that build gave the players using it a MASSIVE advantage over anyone else. Trust me....playing PvP where its simply a matter of whoever has the best gear wins...isn't very fun (The Division).

Editado por NOTH_iiStiTch: 9/13/2016 1:16:24 PMLegendary counterparts aren't a problem. If they lose the exotic perk, they're just another legendary weapon modelled on something we're familiar with. Melikes. But there's no doubt that the progression of "exotic perks" has been disappointing. I don't want a god mode weapon, but I do want something that feels unique and can be tied into a playstyle to provide a unique advantage. Bad juju? Thorn? Vex mythoclast? Monte Carlo? Pocket infinity? You can have the foundation of these weapons without them being OP. But they add something unique to your playstyle. Ace of spades? Fabian Strategy? No time to Explain? Come on guys. Give me something better than ammo management.

They are there to collect dust and act as paperweights. It's time to "nerf" the crybabies.

Infusion for legendary weapons. Thats all they're good for now. Save the few that are still worth a damn.
-
2 RespuestasWrong. They're not intended to me the most powerful weapons, only unique. Bungle has stated this a few times.
-
5 RespuestasEditado por M3NAC3 360: 9/12/2016 10:41:43 AMI think all exotic primaries should be elemental.....and yes, I miss my Fatebringer. #BRING BACK FATEBRINGER! Also, Special and Heavy could have a elemental toggle, so you can have any you want when you need it. I think those would be cool features for exotics.
-
The point? Have a yellow slot lol
-
4 RespuestasEveryone cries when exotics are good. Bungie listens.
-
Bungie is just cashing in on the old hype for exotics. I'm still buying ROI so I guess it's working.
-
4 RespuestasThey are unusual, and have abilities unique to them. Eg: Bad Juju. No other weapon can do what it does and in certain situations it's extremely useful. You're conflating overpowered with exotic. They're not synonymous and Bungie have categorically stated they're meant to balance with legendaries. Otherwise you just get the Thorn meta with everyone spamming whichever exotic is the most powerful
-
12 RespuestasHave you used the trespasser? Thing is awesome and stands way out from other sidearms. Zhalo stands out from other autos (so does Hard Light but to a lesser degree). MIDA is obviously king of scouts. The Last Word is the best hand cannon in the game (if you know how to use it you're unstoppable). The Queenbreakers bow is a fantastic sniper. Plan C shows how powerful fusions can be. I understand what you're saying but there are examples of exotics that are very good and unique

The field "Body" is too short or too long. Please enter a length that is 2 to 10000 characters in length. (28)
