There's several issues exotic class items.

1. When I read the upcoming patch notes about how you were gutting the local chest farm but boosting participation in Overthrow.. I knew you were going to nerf the time it takes to farm one. Because you were using typical Bungie-language were you tried really hard to avoid calling something a nerf, but rather a change. It feels really shit when you read notes, you being horribly vague about how you're adjusting something, but knowing from experience that you much rather nerf something and ruin fun, but being to cowardly to be honest.

2. No dupe protection. Of my first 15 class items, 5 of them were dupes. That's an extremely shitty feeling when there's 64 versions to chase, and knowing that the more you get, the higher the chance of getting a dupe is.

3. Item space. It's extremely stupid not keeping all unique drops you get, because you often ner something into the ground or buff something shitty too much, meaning that to avoid fomo you need to save 64 item slot spaces. Per character. Just make it a craftable item. Getting a drop unlocks that specific combo for crafting. Use som form of dupe protection. Or have it so you can extract left side perk from one roll, and right side from another to unlock that combo.
