    PTS Heroic boss drops exotic only if you have them before and always highest stats.

    Now my question.

    Why would anyone want to have another exotic when they already had one with highest stats yesterday.
    And why cant players that didnt raid be able to get it.
    cause i guess now they will be shareable and that i guess will create sellruns.

    I mean if i want it i can run with someone that has it and then he share it to me.
    in this case i should be able to get it my own from beginning.

    This does sound strange, am I missing something? If someone has an exotic is this to say that the exotic drop from the heroic boss will 100% drop that same exotic only with the highest roll possible?

    Maybe you deleted it because it was low powered roll. Maybe you don't have the exotic material to upgrade to 500. Couple good reasons right there.

    That is confusing. What about the crafted weapons and the upgrade blueprints? Would upgrading a weapon you already have guarantee a max roll? What about the holster? Does this mean we will start seeing parts drop for crafted exotics, without having to migrate them to an alt character?

    Exotics will not exist outside their max rolls, period. The weapons you have will be maxed for whatever their GS is when tu5 drops, regardless of how bad/good it was before.

    If you haven't crafted an exotic before on your character, it will still need to be crafted before it starts dropping from heroics.

    So if you have a gs 450 merciless, it will be the best stats it can be at 450 and when you upgrade to 500, it will be maxed stats for 500 gs as well.

    Awesome. It will kind of make exotic parts useless though, since no one will have to upgrade them, unless they acquired them at a lower tier.

    The change isn't bad, but I would've rather they just reintroduce stat optimizing and we could've maxed the stats on all gear and exotics that way.

    You will still need to upgrade their GS unless you really want to farm them from heroics to get your 500 GS version. If you want to farm exotic materials to upgrade an exotic you haven't got @ 500 and you haven't seen one drop at 500, this makes that process simpler.

    Does this include quest items like Nemesis and Chatterbox, or just boss dropped items like Merciless and Lullaby?

    It's any exotic you have previously held in your sweaty mitts
