Edit 7/25: For people having trouble with ideas, here's two themes that may help.
Theme #1
Class specific exotics: in the taken king, we're suppose to be getting some. Let's see what you guys can come up with.
Theme #2
Toxotics: this is basically an exotic with an amazing perk but it is also hurts you somehow.
Not really doing a competition because I'm very inconsistent.
Edit 7/24: Glad to see we're getting some traffic going again. I've decided to change what this forum is about. I want it to be a creation outlet for everyone to share their ideas, not just for exotic gear. Hopefully you guys like the change. I'll try and include some examples.
Edit 6/11: Wow, I'm surprised that people actually want this forum to stay alive. I'm sorry for being silent for so long so I've responded to a couple of posts. I'll try and respond to anyone else that adds something. Also I'm going to look for the list of exotics that I have from the last competition. I'll post it when I find it. I'm debating on doing another one. Message me if you think I should.

Name: An Old Nuisance Type: Exotic Void Auto Rifle Description: I can't help but having a strange feeling when holding this gun, almost like it is... Familiar! Design: An Old Halo Needler Perk #1: Needles fired from this weapon track their target. Perk #2: Enemies killed by this weapon explode injuring those around it. When designing this weapon I wouldn't help but notice that the halo needler shares lots of characteristics with destiny's necrocasm. They both have a high rate of fire and both enemies explode when dead. Then again the other day I was playing the vault of glass and noticed that the goblins in the gate keeper portals look a lot like the silver zealot elites from halo 2. Anyways not sure what this all had to do with the guns but just thought it was cool.

Edited by TheLedBaron: 3/24/2015 12:01:45 AMHere is mine... see the link. OR... The Infinity Guantlet (yes, I shamelessly stole the name from marvel) It's an Exotic Guantlet that instantly kills any enemy with a melee attack. Highest melee attack speed with no Cooldown. Gives you infinite grenades and any kill instantly recharges your super. Each kill with your super active immediately refills your super bar. Killing Atheon or Crota with the melee attack instantly guarantees you The Vex Mythoclast or Crux of Crota and the Gjallarhorn. All purchases from Xur with this equipped will cost you Zero coins. While carrying the Sword, you can perform Links charged spin attack from Ocarina of Time. You drop an orb of light for every bullet you fire. Ice Breakers magazine instantly recharges when empty. You gain the ability to flip off Master Rahool when you open a legendary Engram package that contains only rare items. Has a built in shader to make you look like Stan Lee.

For those of you who don't have two hours to read all that I will sum it up in two words. Raid matchmaking

This is a golden forum post, and I've been trying to follow it since it's creation, but I cant :/ My favorite idea on here is still the Rainmaker Rocket Launcher, if you remember it.

Edited by Grek: 3/24/2015 6:03:28 AMBump in the night boots Exotic hunter greaves Description: knee high furs. Males get standard issue mesh trousers, females in yoga pants. "So did you use the rubber to halt your current or what?" Strength Perk, some were made for walking.: double blink, but shorter distance. Allows for more directional control in air. Negates recovery loss from single blink. Btw you have some incredible ideas. Nova bomb/vortex grenade gravity pull? Gtfo. Blink slide? What do you think you are doing here? A thousand bumps to you and your amazing thread.

Abrupt Ending: Void sniper rifle Description: Why even begin in the first place? Perk 1: Final Round Perk tree: Custom Optics, Lightweight, Fitted Stock Perk 2: "Abrupt Ending": Each round in the magazine does 1.5x more damage than the last. (The first bullet would do about the same as a Prudence II and the last about the same as a Gozen C with Final Round applied.

Grimoire: [spoiler]The final model of a legendary Golden Age weapons corporation, the Abrupt Ending is for those who want to be sure what they shot is dead.
