I have said all along the devs keep saying 'random' but is it weighted random? All inclusive random? Random based? I would bet everything my toon has that the system has some randomness to it (like every loot system) but its not entirely random, nor is it inclusive. Its more like random like: random 100 1-80 = nothing 81-95 = green 96-98 = blue 99-99.9 purple 100 exotic And then the items weighted as to whats possible as well. Its clearly not random 6 and get what you get, so you already know its weighted, its how badly they weighted it against the players that should piss people off, not the randomness. And the statistics of xur has been calculated, and the chances of his inventory being what it has been, with all things in and equal, is like 10^120 or something crazy like that. Theres a thread here somewhere.
