The people who had ghorn and didnt buy it got it by doing work if it was a legendary engram they earned the engram by working for it and if it was a raid they worked to beat that raid and got ghorn if it was a exotic chest they worked to get to it but raids are much harder than weekly heroic.

  • They worked to complete the raids or to get to the chest yea, but they didn't go there with the surety that within that chest or at the end of that raid a Gjallahorn was a guaranteed reward because it wasn't. There was a chance they might get it, just as good or better that they wouldn't. This post has come down to the difference between what you "earn" in an exotic bounty and what you actually "won" from the RNG. You got lucky, you got a Gjallahorn from a chest. However you knew if you completed task X, Y & Z, sometimes W, X, Y & Z you knew you'd end up with Thorn (as in this example). Your kid (if you have one) might get toy "X" for Christmas, there's a chance you may decide not to get it for them and get them something else instead. However if they have an allowance and save their money to buy toy "X" they've earned it. If they get all "A"'s on their report card maybe you promised it to them, and they then get all "A"'s. Guess what, they earned it. That's the difference between earning and getting lucky in THIS example.

  • then shouldnt the people want a chance to get it by luck instead of knowing they will get it because they are buying it. buying it means you suck and cant complete raids to have a chance to get it the only thing you can do is buy.

  • " buying it means you suck and cant complete raids" I call total bullshit on this one. There are people that have completed raids on both normal and hard countless times and still haven't had it drop.
