"Earned Vs Xurned" is COMPLETELY backwards
You people are like game show winners, except now you're belittling the people who work hard at their jobs to buy the same thing.
"Omg! I totally EARNED my car! I had to like, stand in line for the game show for hours EVERY day! And I didn't even win anything for weeks! Gosh, all those people who pay for their cars with the money they earn from their jobs have it totally easy! All they have to do is like, get the money and then buy it whenever the car goes on sale! Unlike us, who had no idea when we would win our car, and had to spend months attending game shows with no guarantee that we would get anything. That's SO much harder than getting the money to buy it."
You're basically "earning" lottery tickets. You may have earned the right to win by purchasing the ticket, but you didn't earn the money itself.
In other words, you didn't earn that Exotic weapon by playing the game. By playing the game, you earned the chance to [i]win[/i] that item. Just like by earning strange coins, you have earned the chance to acquire whatever item Xur sells.
TL;DR
You don't [i]EARN[/i] Exotic weapons by doing in-game activities, you earn the chance to [i]WIN[/i] Exotic weapons by doing in-game activities.
There's [i]ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENCE[/i] between the two methods.

No one earned it. "earners" won it like people that play the lotto. They play everyday hoping for a chance to win a big reward. "xurners" had it handed to them on a silver platter like a high school drop out who's dad is a rich business owner that gave them an incredibly easy job paying them much more then they deserve. Truth. (It's not just a rocket launcher)

I agree that there is no difference between the methods in terms of having control over getting what you want. The difference is that getting something via RNG is much more difficult than getting 23 strange coins. If you are simply looking at "expected time to obtain" as a metric for earning, getting something via RNG wins hands down.

3 回覆There's a difference between the two and it's why the whole thing started. Xurners wanted to keep their sense of pride for getting the weapon when they had none since they bought it while the true earners had their sense of pride and rubbed it in the Xurners faces.

1 回覆Getting strange coins isn't that hard either. Don't make it sound like they're impossible to get. You get 9 for completing an easy strike

由Soul編輯： 5/8/2015 12:54:22 PMAll non-starting weapons and armor are "earned" by virtue of the fact that they require actually playing the game to obtain (either via RNG and/or saving up a form of currency). Some weapons and armor are "exclusively earned," such as those obtained exclusively by completing Exotic bounties or level-contingent endgame content.

3 回覆That doesn't even relate, like standing in line, compared to hours upon hours of grinding to get weapons, whereas you have to do to weekly heroics to get something like that from xûr, so if you don't know wtf you are talking about kindly stfu and gtfo

1 回覆Well put OP. I will put in an argument that in certain situations it is considered earning an exotic, like my Gjallarhorn, which dropped after my first ever VoG normal clear. That was a 7 and a half hour raid that took up my entire day. Otherwise yes, Xûrning something is most definitely the true "earning" of an item
