The Destiny community discusses exotics in need of reworks, with the Warlock helmet Apotheosis Veil being a popular choice due to its negligible recharge refresh. Other exotics mentioned include the Queensbreakers' Bow and The Manticore, with players expressing dissatisfaction with their current perks. The community highlights the issue of power creep and the abundance of unused exotics in the game. However, with the end of the Light and Dark saga approaching, it is unlikely that many of these suggestions will be implemented.

Destiny 2 is criticized for being stingy with loot in various areas, including limited world drops, playlist activities, and special events like Iron Banner and Trials. Seasonal weapons are considered generous, but exotics still feel overly stingy despite upcoming changes. Raids and dungeons are decent, but there are large sections of the game where the loot grind feels slow or non-existent. The player base hopes for more generous loot drops while playing the actual game.
