So......i solo a nightfall, a friend joins in, gets an exotic while i get shards, when i did the work? Real earning right there..... So a crappy friend joins for Normal VoG but gets carried through and gets exotics from chest and Atheon while everyone else gets crap? Real earning right there.... So a guy joins tiger strikes, dies a million times, kills maybe 5 enemies/goes away at start...doesnt do anything but gets an exotic while the other two get crap? Real earning right there...... So a guy opens a chest, gets a legendary engram which turns to an exotic? Real earning right there.... But i take the time to do 3 Weekly Heroics at Level 28 with who knows what modifier on, get 27 coins and buy an item from xur and yet thats not earning??? Im sorry. But when i go to work (weekly heroic) and put in the time, i deserve to get paid (strange coins) and buy whatever the hell i want with my money (exotics). The guy who stands on 'break' all day (noob) and doesnt do his job (strikes, raid, etc) but yet gets given stuff like that? "Oh here you go nooby, you get a promotion! While the other people who actually work are just suckers!" Im sorry. But buying is earning. No different than real life. You do the work, you get paid, you buy your shit.
