Nearly 1000 hours played between my four level 34 characters (yes four, deleted one of my hunters to level a warlock...), a Grimmoire score of 3550, and every exotic in the game EXCEPT the one I have wanted the most since day 1. Hawkmoon, one of the PS4 exclusives...
3 nightfalls a week, regular raids on all characters, hundreds of top level strikes, PoE, ToO every week on all three characters flawless...
Xbox users will start getting theses so called "exclusives" before PS4 players. You know, the weapons that were supposed to be perks / bonuses for playing destiny on the PS4... What's the point if you can't get them? Everyone knows that as soon as they unlock the PS4 exclusives for Xbox users, that someone is going to immediately do a nightfall or open a legendary engram and get Hawkmoon, which is BS. The past 100 exotic rolls that I have had, have been guns that I already had drop.
At this point, it's just deception. "Let's market PS4 exclusives that are AWESOME to have, but the best one out of all of them, Hawkmoon, the most coveted and sought after gun, we'll make it impossible to get!"
obviously it's a ploy to keep players playing and searching for this illusive prize and another reason for Xbox users to come back to the game once the "exclusives" are available to them. Because, they market and sell PlayStation exclusives as something awesome and desirable to get. However, never in their marketing or selling did they mention that although PlayStation exclusives DO exists, they will be impossible to get for some players due to the weighted RNG system.
If Bungie can make Gjallarhorn disappear from Xur's inventory when it shows up by mistake, then they can make him sell Hawkmoon to PS4 players. How hard would it be to create another NPC in the tower that sells PS4 exclusives for PS4 players? I don't care if the requirements are super involved, even if it was a crazy long quest line. EVEN if I had to pay real money for the damn thing, I would.
The "R" in RNG is not equally weighted.
For a simple example: if there were only 10 total exotics in the game, and Hawkmoon was one of them, one would expect to get one on average every 10 drops.
But if the system is rigged so that Hawkmoon only has a 1% chance of dropping, and the other 9 a 11.1% chance of dropping, they can keep you chasing it for a long time.
Then, once you get it once, the odds to get it again can be reset to 10%, enhancing your odds of getting it again sooner.
So while it is still random, the system is rigged to keep people chasing longer
So, weapon odds are different for everyone, making it unfair as we all paid the same damn price for this game.
And for all of you scrubs that will just respond by calling me a name or attempting to make fun of me behind your computer screen - I'm gay, I like dicks, I take it in the ass mouth ear, I'm a fgt (wtf is this?) and you have all been with my mom, I cry every second of every day I'm a big baby bitch -blam!- and of course I like dicks (again, for emphasis), Oh and yes I am a salt factory, that's all I do.

It's called a timed exclusive...... I have over 1000 hours and have never had a Gjallahorn drop. Should I say it's unfair for a guy with 40 hours and that he shouldn't be able to get it. Grow up kid. Welcome to life!
-
not getting gjallahorn before my brother despite me having played far longer is BS but I don't care I'll get mine eventually.

It's not impossible to get, a lot of people have it. My friend got it on his first nightfall and he got he game 3 weeks ago.
-
Watch xur sell it the week of sep 15th...right when it drops on xbox.
-
-
Rng sucks man....
-
I don't even understand what you're talking about
-
Dude how bout you stop being an xbox fanboy and you can have hawkmoon
-
RNGesus has chosen not to heed you. This post is proof why
-
-
Of all the crazy stuff I've read on these forums, this one makes my head hurt the most.
-
That sucks I got 2 of them out of the 3 characters when I first ran POE 28 when HoW dropped.
-
Shut up meg.
-
Hawk moon has an 8% drop rate bro. I've gotten like 10.
-
Most misleading post ever? Yes.
-
What?????
-
i have hawkmoon i got it the first time i did nightfall first exotic weapon to drop for me actially
-
Well u know it's called rng my friend and XBOX WANTS IT BAD
-
PS users will be getting even [i]more[/i] exclusives when TTK launches, so I don't think you have room to complain
-
Still not got Monte Carlo had 4 hawk moons ;-(
-
Lel @ all PS players without the exclusives... blame bungie for this
-
Bungie stated hawkmoon is one of the hardest guns to get in the game
-
Not bragging man, but I have three. It's a good gun but shoots slow compared to the Last Word. I'd take TLW and Thorn (pre-debuff) over the Hawkmoon. I have no ram helmets and I have tried motes of light with Xur. My buddy had 700+ hours trying to get the Gjallahorn then got two in a row at the Gorgons chest. Everyone has their quest, grind, or white whale to get. Good luck man, you'll get it when you least expect it.
-
I've seen endless hawkmoons drop from the deathsinger!! That's where I would hunt for it
-
I've gotten it a few times from nightfall. I can't get ghorn or Monte Carlo.
