I know how you feel, when I first got the bounty I was playing for like 3 hours and only got to 20-ish. But like Dutch and Delta are talking about, pick up a shotgun or sniper rifle. And I totally agree with Delta, Exotics bounties are not just a way to get cool items but they are a great way to become a better player. Prior to taking on this bounty, I was absolute dirt with a shotgun. You could be right infront of my face and I'd still miss you. lol. But I picked up the Comedian(Vanguard Shotgun) out of desperation because I just couldn't rely on my sniper in those tight spots. And now, well my main Special weapon is still the Comedian. lol Exotics are cool and all, but it's not near as cool to just get one as a random reward, as it is to actually put the effort into it and finally see fruition. I collect Exotics but not because I like the weapons but because I like to remember the good times, and the bad, and laugh... then cackle. >:D
