I'm not saying it should have extra armor(in fact I believe adding extra armor is the stupidest change Bungie could possibly make to golden gun). The point I want to make is that exotics have always benefited the player, there was never a trade off. I believe exotics should always add benefits never hinder the way they play. I'd be totally fine with achlyophage's changes if the other exotics already had trade offs(and no I'm not saying they should).
