    They also just posted an article discussing the new Khvostov Exotic. I made a video for that above discussing its perks in detail and how to get it IF you prefer video format to reading. and if you enjoying reading heres the GI link: http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2016/08/05/life-of-an-exotic-the-return-of-destinys-first-weapon.aspx Either way I'm stoked for that gun and cant wait for Rise of Iron. I hope you guys and gals all enjoy it too and maybe if you like my stuff I'll take any support I can get LOL. [spoiler]Also about my content, I'm just doing all this for fun. Its a hobby for me and I enjoying getting better and learning Photo/Video editing and I don't monetize my stuff and make money off it. The nice thing for you is NO ads before or during my stuff. Hope you all enjoy. Thanks again Guardians [/spoiler]
