IDEA: Weapon Priority Drops
Ok so getting specific weapons in Destiny is impossible without using a vendor or bounty. This can be an issue when people are trying to get one specific weapon, be it Exotic or Legendary. So I had an idea.
What if every week Xur sold a booster or item that guaranteed a specific weapon type would be rewarded if you get a weapon drop or engram. For example if you played crucible and earned a weapon or engram after buying a Rocket Launcher booster, you would get a rocket launcher guaranteed. If you were rewarded an exotic weapon at death singer you would get an exotic rocket launcher. This could work for any type of weapon as long as you buy that weapon type booster.
This could help people have a better chance of being able to get a certain weapon without it being so random. Maybe it would last 1-3 hours and you can only use one a week. Maybe have it cost 20,000 glimmer too.
What do you guys think of this? Is it stupid?

1 ReplyIsntead of glimmer -> Strange Coins or Motes (or all three of them together). Notice that most people will only be activating this right before the exotic chest in VOG. 5min is plenty for that. alternatively make it a 1 week duration item that gets boosted by XP. ie: the more xp you gain the higher the possibility of it generating the item you want. While active it "sucks" all xp gains and you can deactivate it whenever you want. You wont be able to level anything up, no armour, no weapons, no skills, no motes of light, no REP, until you turn it off. Put it as a Ghost Shell -> Exotic Heavy Weapon Finder Shell, Exotic Primary, Legendary Primary , etc. Let Xur sell one type randomly like the engrams. You can buy as many as you want but only the last one remains active and you never know which one you will get until you pay for it. This would make people play more to "charge" the shell so that they can start harvesting their stuff. If at around 100k xp it gives you a 25% chance of getting what you want it would be excellent. Of course it will only give stuff from places where it can be obtained.

Great idea!!! Maybe it should cost 10,000 glimmer, 30 strange coins, and 50 notes of light. It only lasts on hour and you can only buy one once a week.

1 ReplyI like it, especially the idea of it only being redeemable once per week. That at least would keep exotics rare enough to be, well, exotics. :)

I thought about something like that before and I think something like this should be implemented in someway

Bumping once just to see if any of you wanted to share your opinion on the idea. I'll leave you alone now :)
