  • You're argument would work if Destiny actually had an economy. But it doesn't and so your argument fails.

    • Ughh. Another one of these posts. I guess snowflakes are entitled to an opinion, even if it is an elitist "I value myself in this game more when people have less" opinion.

      Deej also said "Enjoy spending your Strange Coins, you earned them"....in fact, Strange Coins are one of the only pieces of currency that is actually EARNED and not RNGed, so if anything, the people buying the exotics from Xur are the only people who actually earned them ;P. I got my Last Word literally on the third day the game was out from a Legendary Engram. Guess what I did when Xur started selling it...I told all of my friends!! I was so happy that all of my friends could now experience the same exotic weapon that I had grown to love! I'm gonna go ahead and judge by your attitude that you have no friends to share that kind of joy and fun with. It's a NON-COMPETITIVE game, so who the -blam!- cares who has what? The better people get, the less I have to deal with newbs in my raid who can't pull their own weight. One person gets better, the community gets better. You got a problem with that? Then get the -blam!- out, because we don't want you. Also, you're running DOUBLE-shotgun in PvP and have over 1500 more shotgun kills than your highest primary, which explains why your KD is so atrocious. That's the kind of player you are lol. Just another scrublord PoS 12 year old who feels entitled to everything.

    • 1) why a wall of text? 2) it doesnt devalue exotics at all, sure people get lucky and get there gear from Rng, but alot of players like a few of my friends dont have the time between work and life to grind that out every week So if it wasnt for Xur helping them when he can, when they would try to do a raid or something end game, people would shut them down because they didnt have the gear/ weapons to do it. Also why does it matter? If Xur sells my Gjhorn id be happy, then players would have to worry about being kicked because they have HoC not Gjhorn, also when you go into crota there would be a 90% that your entire party would have Gjhorns making it so even the inexerpeinced players can have an important role.

    • I have a helluva lot more time played than you. I've "earned" more than you. And guess what? I hope everyone gets great exotics. It doesn't "devalue" my gear at all. Shut up and play the -blam!-ing game. I'm sick of all you entitled kids bitching about the stupidest shit. Have you nothing better to do? So you had an exotic you thought was rare. Good for you. Want a cookie? I own EVERY exotic in the game and I am MORE than happy if everyone gets the good shit. You should be happy that your fellow guardians get good gear, not bitching about it and crying like your 12 years old. Then again, you probably are.

    • I don't understand what value exotics have beyond perks and stats. There is no trade system so there is no intrinsic value to these items.

    • All those months of grinding. Nightfall after nightfall, VOG, Crota and getting very few exotic drops. You are nuts if you think that when I buy it from Xur it's not EARNED. I'm so sick of these posts. I have Bad luck when it comes to RNG. My 2 buddies bought the game around New Years day and they have more exotics than I do and I've been here since beta. I still don't have.....Gally, Fatebringer, Hawkmoon, Vex and the list goes on and on. I'm happy for people when they get a good drop or are excited that Xur is finally selling something they've been waiting for. And to the OP....You've never bought anything from Xur??? I highly doubt it.

        I bought weapons from Xur and had a life these past few months. Damn it must suck for those who wanted to "look cool in the tower". Oh and I have a Gjallerhorn.

      • How is opening a chest in an empty cave earning it more than running a weekly stirke? Gorgon Chest can be had without running VoG at all. People are giving away the CP. Does this also mean that if Xur sells Ghorn, you're not going to buy it from him? You know, because you want to earn your gun. I'm missing just Pocket Infinity and SGA. Some of my guns were bought from Xur, some of them weren't. I earned ALL of them though.

      • Well you sound foolish with this essay you wrote on why Xur shouldn't sell exotics I see it as fair as long as you don't cheat or hack it. EXAMPLE: go to the store and buy something like your console with your hard earned dollars you don't find a ps4 Or a one on the streets laying around.

      • Hard work for Exotics ? You get lucky from the RNG or you don't it's that simple. Cur the doesn't down grade Exotics. He allows the unlucky ones to have a chance to get the guns or armour they need or want.

      • Not sure if you're stupid or this is satire but in most games it's normal to buy a high rarity weapon usually with extremely rare material or some type of rep points.

        • Xur does not devalue exotics. It's the loot system itself. RNG does not factor in player skill or contribution. You can be dead last on the losing crucible team and still get an exotic, or join a nightfall team just as your teammates are dealing a killing blow and still get one. RNGesus spins a wheel and gives you a consolation prize just for showing up. Honestly, I don't experience any feeling of accomplishment and it feels more like a handout getting an exotic drop from a lucky drop than buying it from Xur

        • Low grim, very little raid completions and no 32. Who cares what you think?
