    Tommy Gun/Thompson needs to be remove from the loot pool.

    I just did three heroic incursions, three legendaries, and one weekly assignment. I got 2 tommy guns and 1 thompson. All that effort for jack ****. Oh yeah, I also got centurion as well. FFS, The tommy gun/thompson should not be in the loot pool when you know it needs to be rework. Just like the ninjabike. Remove it temporarily.

    EXOTICS FROM THE SPECIAL EQUIPMENT VENDOR SHOULD NOT BE IN THE LOOT POOL FOR IN-GAME ACTIVITIES. IF I WANT A FRAKING CENTURION OR CASSIDY, I WILL BUY IT MYSELF WITH PHOENIX CREDITS. IT IS NOT REWARDING TO GET THESE ITEMS FROM SPECIAL EQUIPMENT VENDORS FROM CACHES. HOW MANY TIMES DO WE NEED TO TELL YOU THIS?

    WHY DONT YOU MAKE IT WHERE THE SPECIAL EQUIPMENT VENDOR ROTATES EXOTICS WEEKLY FROM THE EXOTIC LOOT POOL, SO EVERYONE CAN GET A CHANCE TO OBTAIN THE EXOTIC THEY ARE LOOKING FOR? FOR THE PRICE OF 2500 PHX CREDITS. HOW ABOUT THAT? I'M PRETTY SURE YOU KNOW WHO XUR IS AND HE DOES NOT BREAK BALANCE OF THE GAME BY SELLING EXOTICS FOR GUARDIANS IN DESTINY 1 AND DESTINY 2.

    That gun needs to be reworked and yes all sold exotics should not be in the pool. The pool should also be the same in the LZ and the DZ.

    Easy counter that is the Tommy Gun you get from drops will have different weapon talents than the one in the store unless you want to wait weeks to get the one you want.

    But to get off topic......I think the Tommy Gun should be removed entirely from the game until they fix the free talent. Easily the worst talent in the game by a country mile.

    I wouldnt mind "Carefree" being Gain 30% weapon damage but receive 10% more damage. Something like that....I'm not a weapon balance numbers guy.

    Its not the weapons that need revision its the loot table drop chances, distinctness and frequency.

    Its not random enough. 22 exotic caches this week from most of the heroic incursions and leg missions. Mostly barrets chest, skull gloves, ninja packs and shortbow pads from all of them. I think I got a midas and just now a tompson from my 23rd cache.

    So the tables are skewed if you ask me.

    Id rather the table discount the last 2 or 3 items I received from the next roll if that were possible. The weighting seem to slant towards the gear or weapons depending on the week/month and then only the old stuff.

    Similarly the classy drops dont seem to inc any of the last events cGSs. Maybe its not intentional but from experience it seems that way.


    Personally speaking I would rather get a nice broad range of items including the new exotic wpns but maybe have them a low-mid quality always. But then have a chance that they will break when using the customization and optimization tables. I think users will be more up for getting alot more different content and be wary of upgrading so often. But with greater possibility of drops for the same items, they will have decent (better than now chance) of getting dupes if their items break when being upgraded. I guess Im in the minority though.

    The game seems hell bent on getting me to use Caduceus, keep getting it and not even from LZ runs.
