My feelings on the matter and how I see gear.
Common, uncommon, rare, legendary and exotic was a poor word choice, they are not tiered by rarity they are tiered by power. The only "rare" items are gear/weapons only obtainable by RNG. Such as raid gear/weapons and faction gear/weapons not sold.
Love my multi-tool and hope those that buy it today will enjoy it and help them get through harder strikes and weeklys.

So you're telling me you get more exotics and purples than blues and greens over the course of a week playing? There's no way that's possible. It is far more rare because you get one or two a week that you keep but countless rare and uncommon that you scrap.
