Lately the new exotics are absolute trash Back in year one you heard someone had an exotic weapon and all you could do was ask them how they got it and pray you could get it because they looked awesome and had amazing perks [spoiler]Now bungie just makes a nice looking gun Adds shitty perks and calls it exotic No. exotics Need to look unique Have unique perks that go well together Examples of true exotics Baller horn never forget Ice breaker Invective The swords Bad juju Red death Zhalo Vex Examples of bungies ultra shitty, Easter egg, extremely specific situations that never happen to warrant using exotics Zen meteor Looks like a still piercer, and has a super niche perk that's not even enough to body shot a guardian if you manage to activate it AND has a time limit to use, not exotic by any means. Just has perks no other gun has but these perks are useless as hell. Boolean Gemini- lol it looks ok The perks Lol I feel like there's a reason I've only seen 1 being used ever Oh yea the perks are ass Dregs promise Fire whoever thought this shit needed to be exotic Same with QBB Lord of wolves is again a victim to shitty perks. Touch of malice- *sighs in defeat* Again fire the idiot who thought of this gun Exotics were game changers Guns that were one of a kind, did one of a kind thing and were hard to get. Now they're niche and shitty Easter egg guns. And they lost value cause everyone and their mother can get them from spamming xur and 3OC How about bungie you take ideas from the community and make exotics we designed cause I've seen some pretty amazing OP ass guns Back then exotics were so good you actually had to debate which one to use cause they were all pretty damn awesome. Now I don't even use exotic weapons because legendaries out perform them (apart from the universal remote which is a troll gun) [/spoiler] Exotic infusion [spoiler] This would add extreme value to re-dropped exotics and would make old exotics more powerful and bad ass How it works You need to get a duplicate exotic [b][i][u]DROPPED[/u][/i][/b] Then you use it to infuse into the same gun and get a new more powerful version of that gun. Example Red death Exotic weapon parts (red death) Description: use to add new power to red death... Power unknown You infuse it Red death gains a new upgrade node Butchers tool: red death feeds on the blood of downed enemies to increase weapon damage until you die Maxes out at 15/20% pvp 50% pve Does not work like crowd control as it stays active until you die. First kill grants 3% bonus damage pvp Second 5, third 8, fourth 10, fifth 12, 6th 15 etc. [/spoiler] SUROS anarchy infused [spoiler] Suros regime gains an additional node SUROS. Anarchy: each bullet has a 20% chance of firing with an explosive round that does deal bonus damage and doesn't split off the original bullet[/spoiler] MIDA infused [spoiler] MIDA gains an additional node D/T-4-p-3 (a small lol at how duct tape can fix anything): This gun changes energy and heat levels to match any elemental shields it's aimed at[/spoiler] Patience and time infused [spoiler] It came from nowhere: removed scope glare while ADS, firing bullets no longer removes camo, improved Camo[/spoiler] Bad juju infused [spoiler] Witchcraft: enemies downed with headshots have a chance to leave behind a deadly smoke [/spoiler] The last word infused [spoiler] Stand off: no recoil when fired from the hip, bonus equip speed, faster reload[/spoiler] Thorn infused [spoiler] Rose: enemies killed explode into burning rose pedals that cause DOT to nearby enemies (does 3 damage and burns 3 times and explosion deals 50 in pvp)[/spoiler] Do they sound OP? They should they're exotic. Not legendary.
