I deleted one of my characters to start a new one with her... Well we're now at lvl 24 (her) and 25 (me) and we've noticed some serious inconsistencies when it comes to random drops of the rarer (read legendary) loot.

My character has so far had 5 legendary random drops (heck one came from one of the vandals near the spawn of Patrol Cosmodrome) and a one or two as rewards for the lvl 24 strike and weekly heroic strikes. She has had ZERO.

When another friend joined us for 3 person fireteam goodness, same thing happened. We each ended up with legendary drops and she has had none.

It's to the point where it's really starting to cast a very dim shadow on her Destiny playing experience.

Since my characters don't really need the loot and she does, I think having the ability to gift her a piece of equipment would be very beneficial. Thats an understandable position to be in, and many people probably are in that situation in some form or another, but trading would most likely be an unbalanced answer. People have enough complaints about the loot system, and if anything the way or amount of items are dropped should be changed.

A trading system would lead to a poor experience with the game due to leveling up and then reciveing all or a portion of the gear you could work for for free.

The trading system could even be exploited as a money making system with people buying and selling items with real currency, especially since people already tried to do that with Atheon checkpoints in the VoG raid.

But of course, thats just my opinion.
