Edit 7/25: For people having trouble with ideas, here's two themes that may help.
Theme #1
Class specific exotics: in the taken king, we're suppose to be getting some. Let's see what you guys can come up with.
Theme #2
Toxotics: this is basically an exotic with an amazing perk but it is also hurts you somehow.
Not really doing a competition because I'm very inconsistent.
Edit 7/24: Glad to see we're getting some traffic going again. I've decided to change what this forum is about. I want it to be a creation outlet for everyone to share their ideas, not just for exotic gear. Hopefully you guys like the change. I'll try and include some examples.
Edit 6/11: Wow, I'm surprised that people actually want this forum to stay alive. I'm sorry for being silent for so long so I've responded to a couple of posts. I'll try and respond to anyone else that adds something. Also I'm going to look for the list of exotics that I have from the last competition. I'll post it when I find it. I'm debating on doing another one. Message me if you think I should.

Edited by unleashed1284: 3/1/2015 1:13:34 AMName: The lone wolf Description: "Strength is found beyond the pack" Weapon: Scout rifle Perk 1: Wolf's cry- mini map is visible while aiming down the sight and increases the speed of your super Perk tree 2- Crowd Control, Focused Fire, Glass Half Full. Perk 2: Lone wolf- weapon damage and range increases after a short period of time, ammo recovers in larger supplies. Perk tree 3: increased damage X3. Design: a scout rifle that has a golden colour like the VOG weapons but in a hexagonal camouflage shape like in COD , it has a wolf skull at the barrel of the gun, underneath it the wolf jaw and it's teeth above the lover section of the jaw is painted on the weapon, on the rest of the weapon there are bits of wolves teeth on the top of the gun(like bad juju) also the gun has dents and scratch marks that will make it worn, there is an ACOG scope like on the multi tool but the lense has a yellowy gold colour and the dot is a Wolf's jaw open as if it were to bite. This gun goes into your secondary slot but it makes you carry 250 rounds so that you may have a pistol or a auto rifle in your primary slot. Mag size 15.

Edited by FatShotgunner: 2/28/2015 6:30:45 AMExotic Hand cannon. Call it the "Long Barrel Special." Flavor Text: "If you can see it, you can hit it." Exotic perk: maybe something small, like precision kills briefly grant Third Eye (seeing radar while aiming) or something like that. Goes in your special weapon slot. Give it the look of a normal hand cannon, but with a scope and an excessively long barrel. Super high range, etc. Think of it as the hand cannon opposite to the No Land Beyond. Fairly small clip to avoid making it over powered in pvp, relatively high rate of fire but low impact. I only want a hand cannon secondary weapon because I love the feel of them and I use them at long range, even after the "nerf" on the range I've had no problem. But having a scout rifle is much preferred for crowds of enemies and fighting. All I really want is to use those two rather than having to constantly switch back and forth. I really love this game, and most people are just complaining that their guns aren't good enough or they want a nerd on that gun or whatever. That's crap. I just want to have fun with an interesting gun, and the weapon combo I prefer to use. Doesn't have to be great, it could be even worse than the no land beyond (Which I still love to use in PvP, it's just an enjoyable gun to mess with.) Give us less exotics that focus on being the Next Best gun that everyone will use constantly (coughcough Ice Breaker,) and more weapons that are just plain fun.

instead of making a new exotic fix or improve the ones that already exist. NLB: Remove zoom completely (iron sights hello) replace mulligan with outlaw, increase bolt animation speed, replace lightweight with armor piercing rounds. Necrochasm: Increase Stability by 25%, replace fitted stock with rangefinder 4th Horseman: replace return to sender with a more interesting perk, like combustion of enemies or health replenish after kills Vex: fix ammo spawn loss in pvp MIDA: add toggle full auto Universal Remote: increase rate of fire and reload speed
