No, it's a class item.

None of the class items are exotic.

I'm well aware there are no exotic cloaks currently in the game.

Not really my point.

My point is that if you want Exotic Cloaks, you also have to consider Exotic Titan Marks and Exotic Warlock Bonds. You can't consider cloaks in a vacuum, you have to think about all three classes, and you have to think about how Class items fit into the structure of how armor works as a whole.

Class items don't have stats (other than what you can get from inserting mods). How do you want to balance that against other exotics that do have stats?


They're a piece of a whole. They don't stand alone.

Yes there should be exotic class items, mostly so you can actually use full sets of head, arms, chest, and leg armor.

my man, exotic armors are all class exclusive

Since the beginning, exotic class items has been my wish. I would love it if every exotic piece of gear was the class item instead of the armor pieces.

If only they worked somewhat or have an effect like running specialist in cod instead of running kill streaks. If something could be weaved into it or add something like a extra artifact mod slot or something would be nice

Destiny 1 had exotic class items for each faction and all the new subclasses in taken king. Im also 99.9% sure op meant exotic class items as a whole just cloaks are cool ygm. If destiny 1 could do it destiny 2 can

And those Exotic class items weren't really exotic, because you could still equip another Exotic armor piece and they didn't have any special effect apart from maybe boosting faction reputation. Which we now have as part of the Seasonal armors intrinsic perk.

It's not even just a matter of balance but the fact that class items has no stats means that once you've acquired one there's nothing to chase which in turn means there's nothing to drive engagement.

Well, what would be the point exactly? The ones in D1 were used solely for rep gain for factions.

Even that would be a welcome addition. Instead of having rep gain being through the seasonal armor (like the seraphic armor right now, +5% rep gain per piece, you just get a cloak/mark/bond that does a flat +15% or something) so I can still keep my crafted armor that I like the way it is :D
