That is my response, saying 2 heroics is worth an exotic is the same as saying, xx hours of chest hunting is worth an exotic, or xx hours in patrol, xx number of engram's turned in, it is what it is. Y'all act like exotics are so special in the first place. In a game with so few items its a bit unreasonable to think people don't deserve something just because your method took more time. Its not ruining anything, if it was then the game literally wouldn't work or people would completely abandon it. If you don't like it don't play. Just be happy there are more options to to do something. Its an mmorpg not a side scroller.

No its not the same at all. It remains to be the only guaranteed exotic outside of the bounties. The process of two heroic strikes vs the rest of the game is far more easy and less time consuming. That's the point. A player with less time put in [i]doesnt[/i] deserve the same as someone who puts in more time. When I played final fantasy online I never looked at a guy with the best gear and said to myself. Man I wish I could take an easy route to get it. Xur is bungies way of being fair. But why should things be fair for everyone? And for me it has effected me because my friends list used to be loaded with 20-30 people always on. Now that everyone has all the guns what is there to play for? Just log on once a week. Do a few heroics get your exotics log off. It's what destiny has become for a lot of people. Can't blame them. Because bungie made it possible.

Because it's a game... Who would want to play a game that only allows certain players to do certain things? We all have access to the same activities to get the same stuff. Its a pretty basic concept.

That's the point of a game like this. Some players that raid should have better gear options than those that dont. A person who plays iron banner gets those guns while the other person doesnt. But with exotics it's either 100% random. Or two heroic strikes. Seems like it's a system favoring the average joe

Exotics aren't limited to raids though (with 2 exceptions that xur doesn't sell), there are raid specific weapons and armor as well as IB specific weapons and armor. And vangaurd and crucible, just by doing it means you have a chance to get something specific to that activity. Most raid weapons are better than exotics anyway simply because of the primaries with any kind of damage. That stuff is earned/awarded after you do the required activity to get it. The only earned exotics would be the ones from bounties because you know what you'll get in the end. I know that went to the left a bit but the point is, xur doesn't sell all the best gear in the game, his purpose is to sell armor and weapons, a helping hand to some or grimoire machine for others. If he sold raid specific stuff then by all means get mad, but til that day its nothing to get worked up over.
