Why did this guy get such a good drop?

The worst player on our team in Crucible got a purple hand cannon and the two best players didn't get anything. WHERES THE JUSTICE?!

    The loot system is random. I don't usually play PvP cause I'm just a bullet sponge, but I jumped in for Iron banner cause I wanted the cloak. Anyway, my first 3 games I noticed top players getting items, one even got a ship, but after that I saw that the loot was being dispersed randomly. Then I realized the system was going to be structured like MMO's where the whole team can essentially roll for loot only they removed the roll function and it simply awards it randomly. To all the players complaining that top players aren't getting anything for being top, you're wrong. The top players get more crucible rep for doing well which ups their crucible rank much quicker. This in turn leads to them getting legendary crucible items from the vendors. That's the true payout. Poor players will have a tough time getting their crucible rank up. On top of that the good players still have equal chance at getting the maps loot drop anyway. Good players aren't missing out on anything.

        • You think it's bad because you didn't get the weapon? It's rng dude! When I played final fantasy xiv I had to farm ifirt 85 times until I got his weapon then I had to farm garuda which only took 3 attempts to get her weapon. Rng is random number generated btw

        • it can happen that those bad players had got more capture points then the best player at the top only thinked about killing people instead of actually capture the bases that is actually your mission and that is maybe why the guy that didn't have so many kills had more points in capturing bases and got the good loot because that is the whole point of that playlist on crucible it is only on playlist so far and that is dominant or something so I think that is why the ¨bad gamers¨ got better loot then the ¨better¨ gamers

          • Seems like there's too many self entitled elitist pricks in this thread. And random is random get used to it, I doubt most of you have ever even played an MMO.

          • I don't think it should be completely random. If you rank #1 you should get a higher chance of getting loot. 25% chance for 1st 20% 2nd 15% 3rd 15% 4th 13% 5th 12% 6th

            • I think the only thing I don't like is how weak the common rewards are. Their stats are easily half my level at best.

            • In all honesty. If the loot is going to be swiped before the original release..is it possible you should be humble and accept the fact you're having a great experience on the beta? .. I'd say it is strange how they decided to do that..cause I did both iron banner events and the worst players on our team were getting the legendary ships n hand cannons.. seems to be 100% random.

                You see, here is the thing. I will give a example of what happened to me last night. First off, keep in mind I SUCK at Destiny and that I don't like PVP events, so I was hesitant to touch the Iron Banner. I stay up till 10PM, which is late for me, to take part in the Iron Banner. I play one match, get thrid place in my team. Top player gets awesome hand cannon, I get a crappy piece of armor. I think you need to be top to get cool stuff, and never play Iron Banner again. Now, What I would suggest is this: Have different PERCENTAGES of chance of getting stuff the higher you are: 1st place: 100% 2nd Place: 80% 3rd Place: 60% 4th Place 40% 5th place: 20% 6th Place: 10% Now those numbers are just a example, but it rewards top players AND gives a chance for lesser players to get cool stuff. Still a reason to play for BOTH sides.

                  • There is enough justice that is. Best players don't need the best gear is it? Also, from many games I learned the top players with most kills were never the most useful. I think it's nice, in campaign I've had my friends getting more stuff and more powerful on lvl 4 than me on lvl 7. I've had more kills and more everything, doesn't mean they didn't help me, they did, a lot. And who am I to think I deserve the best gear if I'm already fine with all I have? Not that I don't want better gear, but I will get it eventually anyway..

                    • Random rewards are a nice incentive for all levels of skill to participate. The higher skilled players get points towards acquiring the better/more leet pvp gear faster than the less skilled player. IMO haters are blowing this situation out of proportion to any real negative issue about pvp skill rewards.

                      • And what if someone gives everything he haves and still suck, they're trying and that's rewardable. When is a player good ? If they got a good k/d, playing they obejective, or just only give assists backing up players that can aim, or plays as bait, when ? I'm just an average player in pvp sometimes a k/d of 0.somerhing or best player with 5.0 or so, but always trying... i think random rewards are the best option and yes it could suck, but when you get that awesome item it's all forgotten and never happend !

                        • Am much as I'd like to agree that the best should get the best it would completely unbalance the game. Some weaker players would otherwise never get the rewards available considering some people will probably play pvp exclusively. And it would remove the grind element of the game which this seems to be. Other wise at level 20 your done.

                        • The same thing kept happening in EACH match I played the other day. One time the worst player by far got a legendary ship to fly.

                        • Did anyone consider TIME as a factor? Let's say you're a family man who can only dedicate a few hrs a week or a Marine on active duty and you're competing against college kids and high schoolers who play 6+ hrs a day. What happens months down the line when these kids have ridiculous loot and you want your shot at some yourself? Are you to be punished bc he has full purples and you've got greens? No. The random loot table allows for people with less time to dedicate to the game to catch up via chance. But you shouldn't complain about this "chance" since you'll be rolling MANY times more than people who can't play as often. TLDR; Bungie knows what they're doing.

                        • If only gotten loot from iron banner once, and it was a purple hand canon, but I was pissed cause I can't use it till at least September 14-16, and that's if the two variables are met, 1. They allow vaults to continue over, 2. I spend every waking moment loving a guy to pvp 20. So stop griping about justice in not getting a purple item, it's worse for this box us who have them....

                        • If the best players got awarded the best weapons, then they would be undefeatable in Iron Banner.

                        • All loot is randomly assigned for equality. If the best ppl got the best loot, it would make "the rich richer". This is generally frowned upon in most situations so i can see why they wouldn't start that.

                          • The Justice is, no one really got anything seeing as the Hand Canon is just for show. He can't use it until level 20 and the Beta will be wiped. He'll have a blast looking at it in his inventory though lol

                            • I definitely think it should stay random. I saw a guy get an epic ship in one game (Birth of History), middle of the pack player. My reaction, after seeing constant crap rewards with the occasional useless green, was "you have a chance at that?!" instead of, what seems to be the majority, complaining it didn't go to the top player. It makes them chase items to come back again and again for. Now it is annoying that people can get an item without participation. There should be vote to kick options and maybe tie the rewards to any of a few medals that are easy to get but require actual team participation (like Objectively Correct or Merciless to reward either objective hounds and/or killers).
