My biggest problem with Xurning

It isn't that you guys all get handed exotics that I lucked into through RNG. In fact, I don't really care about what you do or how you play. It just gives me less to do in Destiny. And I enjoy the game and enjoy having things to play for in the game. If you think about it, the raids are pretty easy. Takes maybe a couple full clears to get a full set of 32 armor. Add in the Iron Banner, and it's really not that hard to hit level 32. So once you're level 32, have a few raid clears under your belt, have all of the raid items you want, have spent your fair share of time running Crucible or Strikes with friends, just for kicks, completing bounties.. what is there left to do in Destiny? Farm, because I guess that's what you're supposed to do in a loot-based game. It turns into a chore, and you farm because you tell yourself you want to have it all. Catch em all. "Complete" it. But when Xur is eventually going to bring you every exotic trophy item that you don't yet have, why are you going to waste your time farming? This is the big problem I, and many others are running into. There's no incentive to even farm anymore, because I know that Friday Xur RNG is my best shot at getting whatever I don't have. Is that all there is to Destiny now? It seems the system that they've created is: - Spend a few weeks in the new DLC running a raid until you get everything you want - Run the same handful of bounties for the 500th time to level those items - Quit playing altogether, except for the occasional Tuesday Nightfall / Heroic and Xur Friday Is this really what Bungie wants Destiny's legacy to become? 3 weeks of brand new DLC fun followed by some weekly chores and Xur RNG? Is this really a system that can be sustained, long term?

  • Because rng never "hands" stuff to people right? You people with the "xurning" are straight up idiots. To get the red death you would have to run 3 heroics. Thats way more work than having it drop from one crucible match, and normally its the last place person who gets said exotic. Yeah, way more work.
