So I keep reading posts where peeps think that Cryptarchs aren't a legit way to get exotics. That they should be exclusive to raids, strikes, bounties and pvp tourneys. Why? What's wrong with the occasional rare drop after wiping out a squad of Fallen/Cabal/Hive/Vex? Speaking from a story point of view these guys have been raiding the Galaxy for centuries their Captains SHOULD have rare earth swag in there pockets just for kicks!

The system would be fine it people didn't have such a easy way of leveling the cryptarch so fast. Farming glimmer in the beta through chests made glimmer way to fast. Then buying the cheapest engrams to lvl up fast. If it was natural lvling though dropped engrams and rewarded glimmer then the cryptarch would lvl normally and be rare to get an exotic. Ppl in the Beta were lvling cryptarch past lvl 15. After that many lvl rewards your bound to get an exotic.
