is somebody no longer special because other people are getting the special weapons a lot easier, -blam!-ing crybaby

First of all, a legit concern? Your concern is people getting decent weapons too easily and thats bullshit because before this it could take weeks for a newer player. If it wasnt for prison, my brother who just started last week would be stuck with rares trying to run 28 strike playlist as a 27. Good drop rates are a yknow GOOD thing. Why dont we tell everyone they cant get legendaries or exotics from crucible or strikes either then huh? Whats wrong with having you know actually decent drop rates, what because you like gambling all day?

[quote]So I played the level 28 PoE last night for the first time, and was awarded back to back Gjallarhorns! This is idiotic. Bungie should not allow players to be rewarded any exotics from the lvl 28 Prison. It is too easy! Any noob could beat it and then get rewarded with some of the best weapons in the game. It is 4 levels lower than the Nightfall for F-sakes, but yet you can get some of the game's best gear. I mean think of the work we first had to do to reach the VoG exotic chest or even Ir Yut. You needed a fully coordinated, and somewhat proficient, fireteam. Now, just pop into matchmaking and get a Gally, for literally doing nothing. Might as well just start handing out the Mythoclast for completing patrols. This needs to be fixed. I even think getting the new Queen's legendary weapons from lvl 28 should be disallowed. Anyway, I won't be using anymore keys on the lvl 28. I feel I should at least have to work for the rewards I get. Edit 1: This isn't crying or bit*hing, it is just a legit concern. I love when my friends or others get the exotics they need, but it is really the manner of getting these exotics from the PoE that is very anticlimactic. Some of you have said that you have gotten exotics from low level strikes, crucible, and/or patrol chests. Yes, these things are easy, but the chances of getting exotic drops here are extremely rare, and, in most cases, completely unexpected. Which makes receiving them very exciting for the player and other players involved. However, in PoE we can expect multiple exotics on a weekly basis. This kind of ruins the excitement of receiving them in the first place and therefore takes a lot of the fun out of it. Some of you have raised the point that most people have all or most of the exotics now anyway. I would definitely agree with this too, but I feel that this is a disappointing stat. Exotics should be just that, exotic. Having weekly farms for exotics makes them even less rare and again takes the fun from the game. I feel that even Xur should not be selling any exotics. I'm fine with him selling exotic armor but weapons should be left for random drops or hard fought battles (or at least battles with some sort of effort). I guess in reality, I just like working for my rewards, makes getting them feel more rewarding... ;) I'm just disappointed with how easy lvl 28 and 32 PoE is. However, I've yet to try 34 and 35, and definitely look forward to the challenge. Edit 2: It's great to see the level of controversy this post had caused. For those responding with thoughtful comments and rebukes I thank you. You have made me look at my initial opinion and reaction a little differently. Saying "idiotic"in the original title was perhaps a little harsh, and I'll admit, my original tone might have been too negative. However, my main concern now is the serious lack of reading comprehension and the associated negativity that comes from sharing an opinion on these forums. Allow me to clarify. I don't care about others getting Gjallarhorn, or any other exotic for that matter. I have them all and understand the collectors/hoarders mindset. But my main issue was just how expected or dependable they have made acquiring exotics. I feel that this has taken some of the excitement from the random acquisition of the weapons and for me takes a lot of the fun from it. It is cool that you need a key, but I can't get behind level 28 PoE matchmade exotics.[/quote] Excuse me. I seem to have misplaced my Gjallarhorn. Could i have it back please? ;)

You're ungrateful! If I got the two ghorns then I'd be happy as -blam!-!

"People are getting the things I work for too easily and I don't feel special!!!"

Git gud nub

First of all you need a Treasure Key to open the big chest and those aren't exactly common. Second, you're only guaranteed one Exotic from the chest per character per week. So that's 3 guaranteed Exotics a week, which isn't really that much. I've had weeks where I've gotten 8 exotics in the same week, of course 3 were No Land Beyond, but still it's not a big deal. People that complain about RNG are typically young children that pitch fits when they don't get what they want. Assuming you do all your Nightfalls and Raids every week, you're always going to get atleast one Exotic per week. Now there's just guaranteed Exotic drops too. I don't see why any of this matters though since only a small handful of Exotics are actually worth keeping.

Eh i got thunderlord my first run....

Your opinion is just that. Yours. Exotics aren't really a higher tier rarity, they are essentially Legendaries with special abilities. Many people don't care how they get an Exotic, if it's done from an engram that they got from punching a Dreg, or from Zur, Ir Yut, Crota, Atheon, or a once a week garunteed chance. You enjoy your game doing the activities you enjoy. Let others get their enjoyment and opportunities where they want. In the end a guaranteed chance is still only a chance at a new exotic, more than likely you'll get something you already have before something new.
