Edit 7/25: For people having trouble with ideas, here's two themes that may help.
Theme #1
Class specific exotics: in the taken king, we're suppose to be getting some. Let's see what you guys can come up with.
Theme #2
Toxotics: this is basically an exotic with an amazing perk but it is also hurts you somehow.
Not really doing a competition because I'm very inconsistent.
Edit 7/24: Glad to see we're getting some traffic going again. I've decided to change what this forum is about. I want it to be a creation outlet for everyone to share their ideas, not just for exotic gear. Hopefully you guys like the change. I'll try and include some examples.
Edit 6/11: Wow, I'm surprised that people actually want this forum to stay alive. I'm sorry for being silent for so long so I've responded to a couple of posts. I'll try and respond to anyone else that adds something. Also I'm going to look for the list of exotics that I have from the last competition. I'll post it when I find it. I'm debating on doing another one. Message me if you think I should.

Edited by Haknir: 3/15/2015 11:23:44 PM[quote]Edit 3/2: Important little update. I'm going to be hosting a little exotic design competition on this forum. The due date for your submissions will be on March 15, 2015. Details for this will be at the bottom of this post. Good luck everyone!

I hope one day during this long 10 year journey that bungie decides use some of your ideas. Hopefully in the form of fan made dlc. Games were the community is allowed to create usually are the longest lasting. Edit 2/12: This is great. I love these ideas I'm receiving. I posted this a while ago but I'm still getting posts keep up the awesome work. My phones been acting up so sorry that I couldn't get to every idea. I'm not sure what my word is worth but if you want feedback, feel free to message me. I'm posting a new set of armors for the other classes.

I would love to look through all of these but I just came up with a better idea. Why not a little competition? If you see an exotic that you like in the comments, bump it and I'll make a forum featuring the exotic. I'll say maybe ten or so exotic weapons and the same for armor. If you like something, please bump it! It will come out on top as trending so I'll definitely see it. I want to ask that you don't bump one comment to oblivion. I won't count repeats. The deadline will be March 15 2015. Of course, feel free to add some new ones. The ideas you've been coming up with are insane! By you guys, I mean the community as a whole. Just to make this clear, I do not work for Bungie nor do I collaborate with them in any way. If you want any help with your exotic or want a comment from me, If you consider my words worthy, feel free to message me. I have been getting a lot of notifications lately so it may take time to get to yours but I'll do my best. Thanks for the support and hopefully this gets some attention from Bungie. I would love to one day see some of the community's creations put into this game. Edit 3/5: It seems like something needs to be changed in this competition. I've looked over several exotics and I noticed that no one is really bumping any of them. If there aren't enough bumps then I'm going to just select exotics and put them in a poll. Sounds good?[/quote] ASM Description: Atomic Space Machine: status-unstable Fusion rifle Void Mid charge rate Mid impact Not too good range Medium stability Decent reload First upgrade- return to sender Second tree- perfect balance, flared magwell, hammer forged Main upgrade: ASM- kills cause enemy to explode, if a burst doesn't kill, it has a small chance to cause lingering damage Weapon design: silver shiny and black with red highlights, and in red, a warning sign in the side that says "warning: nuclear energy in use"
