What's stopping them from taking Cabal, Hive, and Vex weapons and saying "Here you go, new exotics!"
I mean those weapons are cool, but I'd rather see some new things.

I can't wait for that someone who literally has over 1000+ strange coins but no ghorn (or maybe he has one) and buys a vault full of horns. Screw 3 of Coins and new stuff, I have a vault full of GHorns!
The way I see it, no Exotic is meant to replace another. We won't (I hope) get a "better" Hawkmoon. They're supposed to be unique and fun. This doesn't always mean OP, which is what many expect.
A burst shotgun with tons of ammo and crazy range (by shotgun standards)? Fun as hell. A Sniper-Fusion hybrid weapon with ridiculous aim assistance and tons of special ammo? So, so fun. A primary Sniper to wreck casual Crucible matches? So good. Like the Vex, Universal Remote, Bad Juju, Invective, Super Good Advice, these are usually not gonna be the objective best guns for basically any scenario. But this game is easy enough that outside maybe Skolas, you absolutely never ever need "the best" for anything. You can kill Crota with no guns for Christ's sake.
So having novelty stuff which isn't necessarily "omg best bet you need this worth the exotic slot" stuff like Gjallarhorn or Ice Breaker isn't a problem in my opinion. If we can keep getting stuff that plays uniquely, looks and sounds cool, and basically doesn't feel like anythingsf else in the game? We come out winning. The game is that much more varied and there's more ways to play. I just love using Lord of Wolves on Strike playlists where there's zero difficulty anyways so you might as well mess around with stuff that's fun to shoot.
And before anyone says "but time/whatever", using Gjallarhorn on a strike will let you finish maybe a minute quicker. Congrats

I'm a little confused about what Bungie is doing with Exotics weapons.
I know they have said that year one legendaries/raid stuff is not going to be useful, but what about the Exoitcs? I've been under the assumption that they are going to upgrade somehow, otherwise, what would be the point of changing their balance?
So does anyone know what Bungie is doing with exotics weapons? Will they have any place at all in year 2?

No hard info, but it's been suggested there will be some, as yet unspecified, way to keep them current.

Tons of people use shotguns in Trials, it really just depends on the map which is favoured more. The best teams tend to have a nice mix, having a good shotgun player push the other team helps hugely since it stops snipers getting too comfortable and being able to line up shots easily. Found Verdict is good enough, it's not going to beat out against the one shot long range shotguns like Matador/Felwinters but it's overall still a decent shotgun.
Praedyth's Revenge is popular in Trials and the Low Grade is decent with the right roll, a sniper is a sniper though, aim for the head and you don't need to worry about anything else.
It will be cleared up this coming Wednesday. There are some rumors out there but they are incomplete.
Well guys... I got caught up in the hype.
Either you stole that picture from somewhere like that old Deej weekly update, or you spend 612 strange coins just to post a picture on GAF.
I got my 6th to drop just a week or two ago from nightfall and I'm still thinking about buying one just cause. Man, looking back at all those weeks of disappointment while I was still a little hornless gaurdian... I'd come into work every Friday and immediately check Xur's inventory only to be let down.
I may not need another Gjallarhorn, but god dammit Xur is going to sell me one.

Now you can bring your XB1 Horn and help me through the NF and Weekly since I have all of like 7 coins.
Come on, all those weeks of Narmer Quest, Narmer Quest Hard Mode.. Help a bro out will ya?
GRATS AMIGO WE WILL MELT ALL THE SOLAR BURN THINGS
while we still can
I absolutely would but I'm visiting family for the next 5 days. I could only bring one console. I brought the PS4 because I thought there was always a chance he'd sell the horn. How about that shit...
I agree. I got my 4th one from NF this week but I want to contribute to the madness. I will help Xur get that money!
Well guys... I got caught up in the hype.
Not sure if cereal
Oh god i cant hold it in
"This weekend Lottie in Viva Piñata is selling Gjallarhorn for 17 chocolate coins!"
I have a Thorn too and some other fancy weapons but I suck with snipers :|.
Oh Xur you magnificent asshole. Sell perhaps the most coveted exotic on the eve of an expansion where we don't have confirmation about what happens to exotics. But I passed, stupidly, on what I believe is the one other time he sold it. His selection is pretty garbage otherwise so I'll probably buy it...
Just a thought:
Since with TTK we will be able to trade heavy ammo synths, motes, armor materials, and weapon parts (and other things?) For faction rep then does that mean that these things will be replaced with new items and that they will be not-usable for their old purposes after TTK launches?

I'll probably need a new avatar thingy now.
It would be a grind, but it's possible. Get him to 20, have him grind strikes for gear, at 28 he can grind the PoE 28. Coins frequently drop out of the small chests. It would be possible between that and engrams and the weekly heroic to get enough, but it would be quite the grind.
"Strikes for gear"
3,900 rep to reach rank 2 and be able to buy gear. With low level Strikes on a playlist giving you like 12 per Strike. It really, really is absolutely terribly grindy to clear that beginning grind. It's where all my real life friends quit the game. Reaching 28 is a PITA.
5+ wins and flawless can help you out with good weapon and +42 light gear.

I can join in a few, psn is gmrtom7
Sorry, I should clarify. Strikes for engrams and blue gear to get to 28. It's not realistic to buy faction gear in a weekend.
Join asap
