    Can you loot more than one exotic?

    So i found a chameleon but it's 497. Is it possible to keep searching for and find a better one while actively using it or will it not drop?

    Yes. Owning an exotic does not prohibit itself from dropping again. Take on Heroic difficulty, because owned exotics can drop there again.

    Cool. Thanks for the info. Just wanted to make sure we weren't wasting our time looking for better ones.

    You most certainly can, and owning the same exotic (you are aiming for) does not change the RNG for getting a repeat.

    I have a skill build I prefer for solo grinding, and my first pair of BTSU gloves dropped at something like 484, which sucked. I kept them and used them but kept grinding BT Invaded missions on Challenging, and finally another pair dropped @ 500. (And before anyone says GS doesn't matter, indeed the 500 pair had higher specs across the board).

    So you can get another one, but no telling when or how much grinding you'll have to do to get there.

    owning an exotic only prohibuts the drop of the components needed to craft it, and owning means you have it in your stash or inventory, so store them on a 2nd charachter to aquire more on your first
    this only applies to the parts for craftable exotics, nemesis, liberty and chatterbox, as others dont have material in the first place

    outisde of tht nothing but bad luck will stop you from aquirering more of the same exotic
    this also means you can find more complete craftable exotics while having them your inventory, eg you can find the liberty in a pistol area while using the liberty in your pistol slot
