They shouldn't reward exotics for a 5 minute low level activity my 6 year old niece can complete with her eyes closed. Jeez, some of you guys want this game to become way too casual, it's so laughable. It was silly back when it was possible to get exotics out of public events. The reason the rewards are so crappy is because public events are low level stuff that blueberries start out with when they're beginning the game. Not all the content in the game is meant to hand you the world on a silver platter. It would water down how often you can get exotics and make them less of a rarity in the game. Exotics are supposed to be, you know.... Exotic? Rare to find in game. You want them handed out like candy even more when you can already farm them from lost sectors? Just add enhancement cores, finest matterweave, concentrated mattergems and I would even be cool with adding raid banners as a reward for public events. Consumables that a new player can start to stock up on for when the game starts to get alot harder.
