I posted this on reddit sometime back, and thought I'd share here
It's been said many times. It's just getting pretty ridiculous now.....
20+ Ascendant Challenge Completions (almost all of them solo) and still no Ghost
15+ Weekly Story Missions Completion and still no Sparrow
17+ Shattered Throne Runs with the works (Wish-Ender, All Corrupted Eggs & Bones, Solo)
and still no ship
.....and this is all just on one character. More than four month after the release of Forsaken. Recently completed all my runs this week, and once more nothing. Not to mention you can't really grind out these activity except Shattered Throne when its available.
I have all Forsaken Exotics except 1K Voices, and yet none of the DC Cosmetics. I can't believe I just wrote that.
With the pulse rifle now out of the way, these are the only three things locking me out of Cursebreaker and I know I'm not the only one. At this point it would just make sense to make them guaranteed (or high chance) drops from completion certain DC activities:
Collecting all Ahamkara Bones drops should drop one of the cosmetics.
Completing the DC Lore Book can also guarantee a cosmetic drop.
Solo Run of the throne guarantees the ship. It doesn't get much harder than a solo run...
Maybe something like BrayTech Schematics where the drop rates for getting a schematic is
higher after each daily reset. In this case, after each weekly reset, the drop chances for a
weekly bounty's respective cosmetic are high before completing it. Each week you go without
receiving the cosmetic, your chances are higher for the following week.
Completing the Ascendant Challenge multiple times increase your chances of getting the
Ghost. It should drop from opening the chest. You have a reason to run the challenges more!
Hell, I'll even do The Corrupted Solo for a high chance at a cosmetic, haha.
Some approaches are better than others. I'm certainly not the first to say these things and certainly won't be the last. Anything can be done at this point. There isn't anything else to prove for the Cursebreaker Seal. I'm just proving I can get lucky.

Hopefully we can actually get an answer and not a I'm sending this to the feedback team

I was thinking about this too not too long ago. I think completing extra challenges in an activity should give a higher chance at cosmetic rewards. Completing an Ascendant Challenge's time trial should give you a higher drop chance for the Ghost. (This would reset each week, not just the first time you beat it for the triumph.) Killing the Odynom in the weekly story mission should give you a higher chance for the Sparrow (although this might be a little too easy. Maybe add in a time trial for the missions too?) Completing Shattered Throne solo or beating it as a team without dying should give a higher drop chance for the ship. Completing Shattered Throne solo [i]and[/i] without dying should guarantee you the ship. Collecting all 16 Ahamkhara Bones should guarantee you the Ghost. Collecting all 40 Taken Eggs should guarantee you the Sparrow.

Totally agree. The earning of titles should be skill based and not RNG based.
-
I think all collection items should have requirements tied to them. exactly like the forge 100 frames for the exotic black armory ship

Just thinking that I somehow got the Escalation Protocol shell by accident and haven't gotten the Dreaming City Shell yet gets me all blammed up. That's just how it rolls, I guess.

Mainly the ship, It's been since launch and I still don't have it.

I found this a little interesting. Dreaming city gear doesn't drop in everything else but Tangle shore does. Why is that? Personally, I don't care for the ship, sparrow or ghost. Tess hands them cosmetic items out like candy that I have lost my interest in wanting to collect any of those items.

Totally agree! And I’m sure many others will do too
