My RNG luck has been mostly terrible, as far as purples I've gotten 1 gauntlet and 3 rocket launchers and 3 machine guns. Not exactly useful. But i bought my exotic helm and Icebreaker from Xur, bought my purple armor from vendors, bought my Shadow Price from the Vanguard guy and i'm about to pick up The Devil You Know. I'm very well equipped now.

Purples are the meat and potatoes of this game, exotics are just showpieces.
Yeah, looking at the stats between the two you are pretty much right. I also got my Vanguard rank halfway to 3 last night so I'm going to focus on getting that up to 3 this weekend so I can start buying legendary weapons. That's my one weakness right now as I'm still using rare weapons except for my Red Hand IX.
