Never forget the Xurned HOTPF

If someone in your fire team has a 139 descipline HOTPF it was Xurned. Also be weary when Xur sells upgrades with higher discipline on HOTPF as these dirty Xurners may try to hide what they are. I will edit whenever Xur sells the upgrade so you will all know who is a dirty Xurner and who [b]earned[/b] there HOTPF. Edit: Lol 400 replies [spoiler]Many seem to miss the #bait tag. The people who try to justify buying items from Xur and making huge posts make me laugh the most. Shows how ignorant the people in these forums are at times.[/spoiler] May 1,2015 Xur is selling a 135 descipline HOTPF. #NeverForget

  • Wow… These posts about people earning or not earning items is really ridiculous. The way I see it, there’s a lot of gray area concerning whether someone has “earned” something or not. Just because someone makes a purchase from Xur is not an indicator that they did not “earn” the item. Example: Player A goes through a nightfall being carried by other players and is rewarded an exotic item at the end of the strike. Player B goes through a nightfall, carries the team through, doesn’t die, has the most kills, and is only rewarded 9 strange coins. That player then takes those coins with others he has, and purchases the same exotic item from Xur that Player A has. Would you still say that Player A “earned” his and Player B didn’t? I think players do “earn” special coins, whether it’s by doing a nightfall, hard level weekly heroic, daily public event, etc. When they then take those coins to make purchases, that “earn” is transferred to the item they purchase. It’s no different than working hard in real life to make money to buy to car, and then saying you’ve “earned” that car. I feel the same applies to players who do multiple strikes waiting for a lucky reward/drop. If you’ve endured hundreds of strikes, grinding it out, and spending an excess amount of time towards that goal, then when that lucky drop or reward final comes, you’ve “earned” it through the efforts and time you put in. I think anyone who complains about someone not “earning” an item is just upset at seeing someone else achieve something in a manner that they feel was a lot easier than them to achieve. I don’t have a Ghorn and I really want one. I will grind out strikes and weeklies over and over and hope that at some point, whether it’s my 50th strike or my 150th, that maybe, finally at some point, it will drop for me as a reward. Do I begrudge the player who got it week 2 from Xur? Or the poorly skilled PVP player who received it as a reward at the end of a match? No… Good for them! I’m happy someone got it, and I will continue my grind towards it.
