Destiny 2: Forsaken has been out a little over a month now, and while players have few things to complain about, the annoying aspects of this expansion are fairly prominent. Many players — including our own reviewer — have found frustrations with some of the randomness that comes with exotic hunting. In the most recent This Week at Bungie, the studio clarified how it’ll be changing this issue, as well as some others.

In the blog post, Bungie commented on some of the original goals it had in mind when making exotics more difficult to get — mainly, making them feel rare again. But the developers admitted that they failed to make exotic drops cool because players tend to get so many duplicates. To fix this, Bungie said it intends to increase players’ chances of receiving an exotic they don’t have yet.
