191 hrs of game time with a lvl 33 cryptarch, Still not a single exotic to be seen!

Hey all, The title is self explanitory, Have been playing destiny non stop since the release with minimal sleep. I enjoy the game beyond comprehension and am more than happy with it. I honestly don't remember the last time I stumbled upon a video game so addictive. However there is one very dissapointing thing, Still not one exotic decrypted from legendary engrams when everyone and anyone around me seems to be finding them or at least found some before they've reached my level. Either I'm extremely unlucky or there's something wrong with the rng whenever I go to decrypt something legendary. Now in all honesty I'm going to be extremely blunt here by saying I definitely feel like I'm being cheated by bungie. I've had to resort to farming purely for the reason of attempting to source my own legendary engrams to hopefully decrypt into something exotic with still no luck. Someone please tell me you're in the same position as me... I have no spirit left to play the game all I need is that little spark of hope and by saying this I mean a damn exotic already. Red death, hard light, or suros regime would be fantastic right about now. I for one am not the person to make topics or posts like these on the forums but I just needed to share my awful luck to see how many are in the same boat. If for any chance something is wrong can a bungie employee please rectify the situation. I feel as though I deserve one by now. Regards gaussflayer01.

    You don't have Luck thats all and your cryptarch level is irrelevant

  • Dude, the game has been out for like 14 days of which you've played 6,5 days... no wonder you have no 'spirit left to play the game' Not judging, do what you like, but don't be surprised if you don't like the game anymore :) Also, what the other guys say, save up on the strange coins is a sure bet to buy exotics and with motes of light you can always buy an Exotic engram... I assume you're doing all the bounties every day, you may end up with an exotic bounty.

    • I have 8 exotics. 2 from bounties, 2 bought and 1 from doing the nightfall. Farming is not the answer.

      • I've had no exotics or legendaries. I'm only 25 hours in mind. May the RNG gods shine their yellow light on you.

      • My cryptarch is 33 too, yesterday I got my first exotic out of an engram, young ahamkara's spine, I turned in about 5 legendaries at the same time, I noticed that when I do that I tend to get 1/2 of my engrams turning purple, rather than decrypting them as soon as I get them and always getting blues.

        • Do a nightfall. Nearly guaranteed exotic. Farming is actually the least effective way to get exotics. You're doing it wrong.

          • I'm in the exact same position as you. My day yesterday was my worst experience with it because my friend, who is MUCH worse a player than I am, as well as doesn't play this game as much, got 2 amazing exotic weapons in one day!!! (Invective and Suros Regime) I'm not really mad about it anymore, but I am so perturbed by this. I seriously feel like Bungie is cheating me. That, or my luck is some of the worst you can get in terms of getting good items in the game. Something needs to be done about the loot system. I understand you can buy your gear, but I shouldn't have to wait for every single weekend just to buy an exotic, when it might not even be the exotic I want, so I would have to wait another week. That's ridiculous. People are getting exotics out the ass and I can't even get one worth keeping. It it wasn't for Bad Juju being my first exotic weapon, I would be abandoning the bounty right now.

              • As far as I know "legendary" is just another name for the color blue... At least to bungie.

                  • Woah buddy, get a life! Destiny is super fun but 191 hours? WTF MAN. Go meet up with your friends and socialize and get out if the house, it's for your own good.

                    • Someone please tell me how to delete this thread. Keeps distracting me and there are far to many negative and rude gamers here on the forums. Thank you to all who have made a positive and friendly contribution. I come here showing respect but all I receive in return is smart ass remarks, humorous jokes and I'm made a mockery of. Things have definitely changed over the last few years with all the new gamers, Bring back the old school attitude...
