SPCTRE, I just randomly managed to acquire the Gjallorhorn Exotic RL (can't remember if it was at a mission/strike conclusion, or if it was loot from a box), but it's a lower level Gjallorhorn.... 334 to 365. Still, I like its perks.
Holy shit, congrats on the G-horn! Ascending Exotics is ridiculously cheap/easy as it only takes an Exotic shard. 365 is actually the highest attack rating possible in DLC II/Year One though, so you won't even need to ascend, just level it.
I got a Red Death the other day, very nice Exotic pulse rifle with a nice perk (self-heal and faster reload on each kill).
Congrats on the Red Death!
That was actually, IIRC, the very first Exotic weapon I ever acquired. Very handy.
I think my second was Ice Breaker. Now, THERE is a weapon that is extremely handy in Strike missions, or in Event sequences like "destroy the Walker". It also comes in handy in Prison of Elders when you take on the round 5 end bosses. Combine the "No Back Pack" (regenerating ammo) perk with the Hunter's "invisibility" perk, and you've got a sure fire method of dealing with the end bosses fairly quickly.
Yeah, I am really trying to level up Gjallorhorn. I have a feeling it may come in very handy in Crucible, except for the fact that the ammo is so sparse. Usually in Crucible, I like to use a Legendary Scout Rifle, and either my Exotic Invective Shotgun, or my Exotic Pocket Infinity Fusion Rifle.
Which reminds me..... I think Destiny would be very well served if Bungie worked in a patch that allowed a character to make pre-set custom loadouts. That way, a character can switch to a loadout (a separate weapons loadout, and a separate armor loadout) that suits their tactical situation, instead of having to manually change and fumble through each weapon selection, especially since you can only have one Exotic equipped in both weapons and armor.
In Destiny, I would have a few different custom weapons loadouts:
1. (Crucible loadout) Exotic Red Death pulse rifle, Legendary Split Shifter Pro Fusion Rifle, Legendary MG18A Harm's Way Machine Gun
2. (Common mission/bounty/first four rounds of Prison of Elders) Legendary A.1F19X-RYL Scout Rifle, Exotic Invective Shotgun, Legendary MG18A Harm's Way Machine Gun
3. (When facing bosses/Walkers/PoE bosses) Legendary A.1F19X-RYL Scout Rifle, Exotic Ice Breaker Sniper Rifle, Legendary MG18A Harm's Way Machine Gun
or
3A. (walkers) Legendary A.1F19X-RYL Scout Rifle, Legendary Murmur Fusion Rifle, Exotic Gjallorhorn Rocket Launcher.
To be able to have these set up as quick-switch custom loadouts would save a lot of time in weapons selection in Destiny. Also, to be able to similarly switch up your armor loadouts so you can maximize your efficiency with weapons... that would be great.
