Yes "needed" because its the easy way out of having to grind for stuff, same with the queens stuff. People bitched about being stuck so they give EVERYONE legendary gear.

I like xur, I've found most of my exotics but you need xur to complete exotic bounties. An you still have to grind if you want to have strange coin. Also, xur doesn't sell raid guns or gear. The exotics you find in a raid are a rare 2% drop I believe. But xur would never sell vision of confluence or something 100% raid specific. So the grind goes on. I do feel you on the exclusive feeling you get with a exotic diminishes after xur sells it. However, if this is going to be a universe expanded on, where gear is added, in a few years the guns we have now will hold true to there exotic name tag. Maybe xur should retire certain weapons he has sold multiple times.

sigh.. tell you what, I'll give you the easy way out, because I'm a nice guy. here's the Idea; DON'T BUY FROM HIM. don't look at what he has for sale, and don't inspect randoms who have been near him. then you will be in a state of knowing you have a valuable gun you have worked for, which is what you appear to be after. despite his wares, Xur is still just an option, and an option can be accepted or declined as you see fit. but it is quite childish just to say "get rid of him" simply because you don't believe in trying to get things the easy way. there has to be features that cater to EVERYONE. if you don't like it, don't buy from him. it really is that simple. also think of it this way (if you can); if you have a weapon that you treasure highly, and have fun using, would you not want other people to feel the same level of enjoyment as you?

Cur shouldn't cater to "EVERYONE" we need 3x higher Strange Coin prices on armour and 4x prices on weapons as to not over populate the game with extremely good gear, this would provide actual goals to work towards.
-
that's not a bad compromise. a slight price increase wouldn't hurt the majority of gamers. at the end of the day, I only buy stuff that I want, or I take a look and think "naah" like last week. I do agree that there should be some Exotics that can only be obtained through RNG or Raids. I still post what he sells on here when I can, just to try and halt the flood of "where's Xur" comments, which will be buried amongst the anger on here tomorrow.

Yes as a matter of fact I do, my patience and time was the first exotic I got and it came from an engram before the guaranteed legendary or exotic came from them. It Is a gun I rarely see so yeah I would be pretty pissed off if he sold it to everyone, like I said its not why he's there, its the rarity of the items he sells
-
as I said though, if you didn't actually know what he was selling, you would, in your own world, be the only one with that weapon. I have both Earned and Bought Exotics, and I agree that there is a great satisfaction when the RNG lucks out and gives you that Exotic, but I am simply trying to convey the point of view of those who can't, for whatever reason, earn them the hard way. besides, if they got rid of him, do you have any idea how many people would complain? some men just want to watch the world burn..
