However it is possible to Xurn something earning something with the random generator is flat out impossible. I'm afraid to say that this post is a lie. The only way to actually fairly earn an exotic is to do an exotic bounty. I got Thorn from a bounty and bought Red Death from Xur. I think people who run the Weekly on 30 usually do work for what they earn and are rarely carried through. Removing a peek from Xur items is just flat out ridiculous.
