Destiny Speculation: Exotic Abilities

[quote][b]WARNING:[/b] I am not a Bungie Employee. I'm just a fan just like you guys! [b]WARNING:[/b] This thread contains unconfirmed speculation. Be careful! [b]WARNING:[/b] Game Design can be very situational. Proceed with Caution! [b]WARNING:[/b] I'm not a very succinct writer. Good luck making it to the end![/quote] [quote][b]1) Introduction[/b][/quote]Over the past year, Bungie has done a wonderful job of unveiling many of Destiny's exotics through the lenses of aesthetics and lore, painting a wondrous canvas of their legendary story. However, these broadest of brushstrokes have not yet captured the exotic tier's inner beauty: the mechanics, powers, and special abilities that will bring their fantasy to life and drive players to continuously scour the galaxy in search of more. But what is it about an exotic's design that makes it mechanically interesting? What sort of powers will work well on an exotic, and which ones will be problematic? What is the best way to leverage these special abilities to maximize the potential of Destiny's metagame and sandbox? For your reading convenience this thread has been broken up into several posts.
