So, I have a dilemma...

Keep it

1142

Dismantle it

141

So, lemme give you a bit of background. I'm a launch player and I put a good amount of time into this game. Between my three characters I have about 500-600 hours logged on Destiny and that's before I took a break. I got to that point that most people come to when you play a lot of Destiny and I decided in January that I would chill for a while and maybe come back when House of Wolves came around. So today's really the first day I've legitimately played Destiny since January and I thought, you know, I'll start with some Iron Banner to get back into the flow of things. Now, I just came from Bloodborne so I could barely even slide, and, inevitably, I get my ass handed to me. 0.41 K/D I think it was - mind you I was usually top of the leaderboards in my prime Destiny days - and what do I see in the end-of-the-match ticker on the bottom left? Ghallarhorn. So I'm like "god damn some dude got really lucky" - because in aaaaaaaaaaaaaall my time playing Destiny and raiding and Nightfalling and Striking and Crucibling and Iron Bannering, never had I gotten a Ghallarhorn. But who got that Jellyhorn? Out of all the players who spanked me and danced on my Dinkle, of all people... me. GODDAMMIT! The one situation I didn't want a Ghally to pop up by my name, it does. And hey, I'm an honorable player. I think good players deserve good rewards and not so great players need a new toy once in a while to help keep 'em going, but I'm a seasoned vet, dammit. I've taken the entire hard raid down (save for Crota) multiple times. I've carried trash teams through entire games of Crucible by myself. I've legitimately two-manned in the Vault of Glass. That's when you don't need that "loser luck" that people often get so angry about, but that's what I got. So I've come to you for guidance. What am I to do? Do I keep this Ghally as a trophy for all I've done in this game so far? Or do I dismantle it for not earning it through feats of might? I leave the decision to you. I'll let you decide whether I should keep or dismantle ol' Crota Crusher; and whichever has the most votes by May 3rd at 10:00 pm, I'll carry out that order. And feel free to speak your mind on the whole concept of "earning" things and "loser's luck" and all that fun stuff. I'd love to hear what you have to say. Well thank you for your time, I know it was a long read. Stay strong, stay hungry, stay star-bound, Guardians. Edit: #paragraphs Edit #2: f**ks not given - 4.75 so far Edit #3: We're trending guys! Thanks for all your comments and support. There's a surprising amount of positive responses, which is nice :D Keep it up! Edit to Edit #Last: The results are in. After two while days of voting, trash-talking, and kind words, the official decision is that I keep it with an overwhelming 1,140 votes in favor of saving ol' Ghallarhorn, and a mere 141 to dismantle. Thank you everybody for being a great audience, I really appreciate it. Peace out m8s

  • Yea same shit happened to me but on the VOG chest I got two ghorns in the spam of a few minutes from two different characters it was insane. And I'm a day oner who never ever got it in those few months of playing ridiculous amounts of hours a day. I hadn't played since December. I'm seriously thinking the game keeps track of how long u have played and awards u if you come back from a good amount of leave to make you stay and play more again.
