I loved the unexpected "hidden" story mission.. (Destiny)

Seeing that there was another mostly fleshed out story mission was the highlight for me and I really wish this was something the game did more.

You investigate the rumors about Thorn and eventually end up going into the Vault of Charlemagne. Your search for the Hard Lighr prototype leads you to Old Russia after a missing fireteam. Fight through a network of Vex timeslips on Venus to retrieve Super Good Advice.

Make them hard, and interesting, so that when you see someone with that exotic rifle you really can go "Hey, I know exactly what they did to get that, that's pretty awesome" like they talked about during development.

And that's exactly how it should have been done. Skill, curiosity, and creativity should be the factors in gear acquisition, not luck. All the best stuff should be super hidden and tough to get, but you should be able to get it 100% on completion. The game world and all the Grimoire need to be set up such that there are hints and clues to all this stuff though.
