I don't see Exotics on your list, so I didn't choose. I've taken notice lately of just how many exotics are in use during PVP matches and I'd estimate we are at about 70% of all players use some sort of exotic weapon or armor or both. The number is higher for vets of the mode. I think exotics are killing the popularity of PVP, due to their sheer power. Many are not readily available or require you to run a raid, lost sector, etc... and get damn lucky. I have nothing against exotics per se, they are great boss or add killing weapons, but too often they are game changers in PVP when the majority of one's opponents do not have the same gear. I really want to see an alternative playlist of "Legendary" Crucible / Trials where no exotics are allowed on the map. I am interested in how many of these "vets" are actually PVP gods or just posers hiding behind their exotics. I will freely admit that I've used exotics in PVP just like everyone who has them, but now that Bungie has released viable PVP legendary weapons, I find I only carry my Gally into a match and I rarely use it. As of now, I am considering switching to a sword which is more useful without heavy ammo compared to an empty rocket launcher.

All these destructive tools of power yet everyone complains about them being used.

  • They were designed for PVE bosses. I doubt they had PVP in mind when they came up with them or they wouldn't need to be nerfing them for PVP play all the time.

    A playlist like that would be cool but there might still be plenty of non exotic stuff that would probably have a similar overall effect. Would definitely be interested in trying something like that though.

  • Yep, with Bungie finally giving legendary weapons some overdue love, it would be a lot of fun.
