Dear Bungie: Where's My Unique, Legendary Loot?!
Every single time I go through the PVE missions, I'd raise the level difficulty. And every time I was disappointed that I didn't see any awesome loot for soloing my ass off after waves and waves of enemies coming at me. The 7+ waves of enemies I went through on Venus's first story mission comes to mind.
Now I'm level 22, finally started Mars and with how insane it was, I got someone to join me. He gives up half way through and I keep going. It's absolutely brutal, but I'm constantly following Destiny's mantra, "Be brave." Taking so many risks and kicking ass. But with all that I've done, there's very little reward for the risks I've taken. Even worse, sometimes at the end I'll just get experience and a story item, but nothing else. Not to mention the daily story hero strikes have given absolutely nothing in the end, each time I've played both solo and with a party.
Bungie, fix this! And not just for me, but for all of us who feel the same way!

So much for legendaries, so far I've found two useless things for me via grinding. I'm not even a Warlock, I shouldn't be getting their crap. -_-

1 ReplyI did the weekly heroic story mode and at the end didn't get a solid piece of gear. They gave no reward. Was hella pissed haha

9 RepliesYou guys know you can buy exotic weapons and armor by upgrading your vanguard and/or crucible marks and rank right? Every vendor has exotic weapons and armor you just need to level up and get a bunch of marks, then buy them. Finding them is pure luck, but you CAN buy exotic stuff all over the Tower.

3 RepliesThen you kill a level 2 drac and he drops a unique :P

16 RepliesMe and a buddy have been getting Rare gear constantly and each have a Legendary other friend can't get guns for the life of him he is still stuck with greens because he CAN NOT get a rare gun drop. So don't complain about not having Legendaries. XD Rares are fine you probably will only need Legendaries for the Raid and you have plenty of time to get one by then. You think you are annoyed all 3 of us play together so my one friend has been sitting there watching us rake in Rare guns like nothing he is absolutely PISSED.
-
1 ReplyThey didn't mention anything about increasing loot drop for solo-ing. So try to play with pub or friends whenever possible.
-
Really? I get great stuff for strikes, crucible matches, missions, etc. Maybe you're just unlucky.
-
Just so you know, i agree with you... So far... Grinding does not make a game great IMO I like it balanced, there needs to be a carrot for gamers that max have 5 hours each week... "Don't play the game then" but I want to! It's a cool universe and i like the concept and would hate missing out, but in the end it could end up me leaving the title... (My statistics about how much time i've spendt are bugged btw, if you guys check my profile) But maybe, just maybe it will get rewarding in the long run.... I just know the first really good piece of gear i will get is either a sniper or gun, the worst! :p

16 RepliesEntitlement wah, gimme gimme gimme blah, play the damn game, earn your shit. There will be farming guides soon enough once the algorithms are figured out. But for now kill all the bosses till you give up.

Edited by Atomic Tea: 9/12/2014 3:02:05 AMYour logic is flawed. You think you should rewarded with exotics and/or legendaries because you took down a tough enemy or two by yourself. Big. Deal. [spoiler]Not really...[/spoiler] First and foremost: Getting legendaries is nothing but luck. Those crazy stories of getting exotic auto rifles from level 1 Dregs are just luck. It doesn't matter how many bosses you kill by yourself or how many strikes you clear. It's all randomized and it's all about luck. How do you make sure you secure a legendary? Repetition. Can it get monotonous? Yes, but luckily the gameplay is solid enough to keep most people entertained for a while. Just keep at it. You won't get showered in cool shit just because you took down some big monster once or twice. The game would literally have no replay value if that happened. Keep at it a few dozen times and see what you find.

5 RepliesYou sir, need to quit your whining

1 ReplyMy bud just got an Exotic today and he's level 20 and I've been getting rares quite often.
-
3 RepliesKeep going, its legendary and exotic for a reason. Borderlands fed us weapons of high rarity on a regular basis, Destiny doesn't seem to do that and I, for one, appreciate it. Also, after having pulled a few legendary engrams, one from an especially difficult strike run, I wasn't prepared for the fact they the legendary engrams seem to have a higher rare item drop rate than legendary. :/
-
I don't seem to have that problem. Idk what to tell you
-
9 RepliesCombination of bad luck and the fact that the game has been live for only a couple of days. Be patient. This is a marathon, not a sprint.
-
3 RepliesEdited by PlagueDoctor013: 9/12/2014 1:50:46 AMWouldn't be exotic or legendary if everybody had them now would it?
-
2 RepliesCheck with the postmaster, sometimes there are lost items that the post master will hold onto
-
6 RepliesYou mostly need to buy Legendary Gear. You will RARELY get it as a reward. You have to work towards Vanguard/Crucible Marks and raising your Vanguard/Crucible Reputation.

2 RepliesThis forum moves far too fast for any reasonable discussion to happen.

6 RepliesFarm you -blam!-ing amateur, it's day 3 why would you WANT the best loot.
-
11 RepliesLevel 20 Legendary weapons and armour seems to be the second best kind of lot in the game right now, i recommend constantly doing a mission with a lot of enemies and a certain route.I usually do earth patrol in rocket yard to get loads of engrams.And I see legendaries are quite expensive to buy I'd rather farm them.
-
2 Repliesi hit lvl 20 and now I dont see a progression bar, how do I get to 21?
-
3 RepliesI kinda agree with u. While I don't expect to have full legendary gear at level 21, I do expect to have SOMETHING. I am running full rare gear, but my chest piece is a level 14 for crying out loud. No legendaries in sight and I've done the heroic strike and story. I've also ran many level 20 strikes
-
5 RepliesDont give up. I have not gotten any legendary items myself from strikes but my teammates seems to get one every once in a while BUT the good thing is in almost every run,I end up getting slightly better rare armor with more light so its not all for nothing.
-
3 RepliesUmm dude legendary and above gear is suposed be very hard to get and very rare. You have to do alot to get it. If your 22 rares are pretty common and good gear to hold you over til you find exotic and legendary gear
