I recognize that some people may genuinely love their exotic hand cannons, but given the current meta, I thought it would be interesting to see what [i]other[/i] primary exotics people are fond of but don't get to use that often. [b][u]I listed what I think would be the more popular choices (excluding hand cannons of course)[/b][/u] [i]Personally[/i], I love the [b]Bad Juju[/b]. Sure using it may cost me my KD here and there at the moment, but damn that gun just speaks to me (: Since Exotics will be upgradable, Bad Juju will be the first one on my list ♡ The String of Curses perk is something I'd love to see implemented on more guns. There's an odd charm of being able to rack up damage bonuses with a Pulse rifle. Edits: ● Don't forget to comment why you made your choice! It'd be great to see what gun you love versus what gun you use because of the current meta. ● Surprised to see Bad Juju and NLB getting a lot of love haha ● Bad Juju with Obsidian Mind Warlocks is great and all, but on a Titan, it's fun [i][b]as balls m8[/b][/i] ●[quote]Why isn't [exotic primary] on here?![/quote] 1. Felt like the weapons above are more popular than the ones that aren't listed 2. [b][i][u]Polls only allow 7 options[/u][/i][/b] ● Wish I could've listed them all (excluding hand cannons of course). Would've given a better representation of people's preferences besides the current meta ● Over 2,700 votes!

  • Monte Carlo was my first exotic. I like the handling and stability. I recently gave mida a run in the most recent iron banner and like it as well. I wish hard light had a bit more impact because I like how it looks and sounds.

    • I'm torn between Bradley Jooj and my beloved Hard Light. Brad is amazing, the perks are crazy hella good for a Warlock rocking the Obsidian Mind and Nove Blasters. I love it for that reason alone. However my first exotic primary was Hard Light and I will alwaaaaaays loooove yooooouuuu. The noise it made that first time the sheer stubbornness of the recoil and the bliss once the stability perk is applied. Hard Light it is. Marry me, Hard Light, for we are destined to be together for ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever.

          • To be honest with you, pvp is a side note for me. I play it when bored or there is a event out at the time like IB or ToO. With that being said none of the exotic primaries are used by me in PvE. They just do not have elements or do anything that significantly effects my gameplay. Obvious ghorn is obvious, but icebreaker has unlimited amo, invective regens amo and has crazy RoF, P&T can allow non-hunters to stealth (although the usefullness is limited), ThunderLord is a beast with dps known to compete with Ghorn (DPS, not burst, we all know Ghorn's burst has no competition), and im sure you can list a few that you really like. In terms of PvP, i think only the Red Death can compete with the hand cannons, due to its 2 burst kill potential, but that has nothing to do with its exotic status, its just from being in the high impact weapon type and arguable Hopsotch is better based on preferance. None of them really hit me with a crazy amout of feeling special like the Thorn with its DoT that nothing has, or the super fast RoF that TLW has, everything else is kinda generic. TL:DR - Give exotic primaries elements for PvE.

            • Suros Regime because it was my first exotic primary and it was great to use when AR were actually good back then.

            • TLW it was my first exotic and my main exotic for most of my destiny life, I think that that should be enough to bypass every bodies hatred of hatred of hand cannons
