(DISCLSIMER) i did not post here to discuss this with the community. If i actually wanted replies from the community, this would be the last place i'd ask when it comes to old topics. Im merely providing feedback for bungie. Simply upvote this post if you agree, or don't expect a reply from me. With that out of the way, i got a bit sick of seeing promethium spur drop, that i fealt like ranting on exotics. My criteria for what i feel makes exotics useless, is as follows. 1- little to no buildmaking potential. 2- another exotic or subclass does it better 3- lacks creativity at the same time as 1 or 2 (im aware this seems a bit biased) 4- power crept. Here's my list of exotics i feel fit this criteria. Agree or disagree with my reasoning however you'd like, these exotics are bad anyways. Weapons "Sweet business" provides nothing usefull aside from a few random funng youtube vidz. Wish this was buffed, and made into machine gun. Sure we got heir apparent, but "apparently" sweet business is a sweet joke compared to ANY other full auto gun. "Coldheart, prometheus lens, and wavesplitter." Power crept beyond usage. Only time in the last few years i saw them be impactfull, was by "perfect aim" trials hackers. "The fourth horsemen" Stomp mechanics, swords, and the catalyst no longer being optainable, have power crept this d1 treasure since the day it came out. The more exotics that stay in d1, the better. Even if they get better in d2. "Prospector" Power crept. No explanation needed. If you need a explanation, your either a new light (no offense but i don't envy you) or you don't play this game enough. "Legend of acrius" Same as prospector. Just use tractor cannon. "Queenbreaker's bow" Yes i called it by its d1 name. Regardless of upcoming "liniar fusion buffs", the only buff that puts liniars on the map, is a special ammo conversion, except for sleeper. This gun was the first liniar ever made in destiny, why is it power crept more than pre buff rocket launchers? "Heir apparent" Currently it's usefull. As soon as people can't get it's catalyst, this gun will fall off like fourth horsemen, but it'll take more time to fall off. Titan Armor exotics "Mask of the quiet one" Worse one-eyed mask. Arguably worst d2 titan exotic "Khepri's horn" Who told titans to use their barricade offensivly, and to fail trying? "Crest of alpha lupi" Neet idea, but doesn't do enough. Should've stayed in d1 or gotten reworked. Yet again i say, the more d1 exotics that stay in d1, regardless of improvements, the better. "Hallowfire heart" Just use heart of inmost light. The moment that exotic came out, titans got a neutral game aside from punching everything. "Severence enclosure" No explanation needed "Phoenix craddle" Im a tad harsh on this exotic since it does benifit it's subclass decently. However, this exotic provide what bottom tree sunbreaker should do by default. If your not using bubble, stasis, or heart of inmost light, what are you doing titans? Go rant at bungie instead. Hunter exotics "Foetracer" Ever since it's nerf in season of the forge (should've hit le'monarch instead) it's been so useless, it appears bugged. "Sealed ahamkara grasps" Again should've stayed in d1. Graverobber even on roids isn't good, needed, or wanted. Arguably worst hunter d2 exotic. "Shards of galalnor" Their nerfs were needed, until their only use was in old gambit timebreakers. If they get buffed it'll be hell, so rework them. "Raiju's harness" Same argument as Pheonix craddle. They benifit way of the current greatly, but provide what it should already do. Notice how little hunter exotics i put here. Im not even a hunter main. Warlock since the d1 beta. Get rid of your faveortism bungie. Idc which guardian class is good or bad, theirs a difference between unbalanced, and broken. "Warlock exotics" "Eye of another world" Power crept. "The stag" Should've stayed in d1. Take notes new lights, bungie regularly ruins these. Whats good about trying to take damage or die? "Apotheosis veil" Even in d1 this was trash. "Vesper of radius" Only usefull with stasis. Doesn't do enough pve or pvp damage. "Sanguine alchemy" Neet perk, has yet to be usefull. We go move around too much. Rework it. Maybe make it move your rift with you? "Stormdancer's brace" Useless since it's release, looks amazing. Just use crown of tempests. "Promethium spur" Same as Stormdancer's brace, except it doesn't have a alternative better option. Arguably the worst warlock exotic in d2. Overall warlocks are pretty set with exotics, just not nearly as much as hunters. Any i did not list here "aside from pheonix craddle or Raiju's harness" have uses both common, and uncommon. You could make a decent build around them. You could find a few (not just 1) different activities where they provide good benifits. Not the ones i listed. Take care, stay safe, and for the communities sake, never forget these words. "Eyes up guardians. Become legend".
