Oh, then my vacation continues.
Sorry for the late reply. The original post made me finally stop caring about Destiny at all. I think I'm finally free of it. Unless Bungie does something amazing and unheard of, I won't be buying Destiny 2. This one bit of news, that elemental primaries are now exotic, pisses me off more than removing them from the game did. It's actually insulting.
So, Bungie, here's the finger. I'm out. I don't give a sh## if they see this or not.
