The main problem with this is that the extremely high likelihood of legendary engrams being blue has sucked almost all of the excitement out of finding a legendary engram. In just a matter of days the mood of finding a legendary has gone from sheer excitement where I'm on a high the rest of the strike and I can't wait to get back to tower to see what I got...to blah whatever its most likely just gonna be a blue again, .I mean people shouldn't get depressed finding purples, as they know their just going to be disappointed when they decrypt it.
If they intent is for them to be that rare then just make the Purple Engram drop that more rare to find but make it almost a guaranteed Legendary when decrypted. That way people are excited again about finding them. The fact that the only legendary item I've got so far came from a blue when i've decrypted about 8 purples so far is just stupid.

Exactly this. I get a legendary now and I say eh. Won't be anything. And sure enough not a single one has been legendary.

Lol same only I got 2 legendary items. Zombie Apocalypse and titan greaves... I'm a warlock. Also have had more than 15 purple engrams (that's a conservative number, I think it's been just over 20 total) and I got the ZA from crucible, not as an engram.

It's absolutely ridiculous of how hard it is to get gear

It's ridiculous that it's not even a measure of gear being hard or easy to get. It's entirely luck with BLUE engrams. People are more surprised now to get purple items from purple drops than they are from blue drops, and that absolutely should not be happening.
