three damn weeks, three weeks I've been looking for a 1060 helmet, this is bs, I don't enjoy doing every useless pinnacle activities for 3 weeks straight just to raise my power from 1059.8 to 1060, you can't justify this, I did gos more than 40 times, got the title 3 or 4 months ago, and last week was the first time my warlock got the gos helmet, if their algorithm is working as intended well their algorithm sucks dick

Helm was flawless in trials 3 weeks ago on dead cliffs...

Oh it’s definitely working as intended. As long as you don’t get everything you need, you’ll keep playing. Bungie has no incentive at all to change the system.

What if, im just spitballin’ here, we were to offer you an out, a way to escape this tedious system? It just could just cost you something, nothing too big of course, it would be a fraction of the cost of the game itself, a “micro-transaction” if you will. It certainly wouldnt be pay to win, just pay to skip the RNG

[quote]I've spent three weeks actually trying to get a pinnacle drop higher than what I already have in that slot (I've been 1052 for just over a month with half my gear at 1053)! My 3 'higher drops' for the week at the prismatic recaster also drop at (and sometimes BELOW) my current light level. Everything else drops at (or below) softcap INCLUDING the last three exotics I've picked up. And this is all in a game where the only real 'goal' is to get to max level (as indicated by the 'bounty grind' structure of the season passes). So here's the homework assignment that I dearly wish Bungie would read: 'If the only 'point' in playing your game is to carry on levelling until you reach max level, but you actually make it impossible to keep levelling until you reach max level, is there actually any point in playing your game?' Discuss[/quote] Here is my answer zero point in chasing that carrot, none whatsoever

You are doing something wrong. Pinnacles drop one or two points above your average equipment power. If your gear is all 1052 and 1053 then your average will be 1052 and the drop should be at 1054. You can see what your average is by looking in collections and adding 20 to the number you can pull gear from collections at. Your light includes your artefact bonus so don’t get confused by that. TIP : Use umbral engrams to fill holes then get your +2s. ALWAYS fill a hole if it will make your average go up before getting the next boost. Typically Save +1s for RNG efforts. If getting higher is important to you you should do GOS on all 3 characters every week.

You are wrong. Hovering over artefact shows only equipped gear. Apologies for trying to help you.

You are right I meant your level not the artefact. Just humour me and check what number you get when hovering over collections after putting a low level piece of gear on. Your level shows equiped gear and your collections show your best gear minus 20. They will be different if you don’t have your best gear equipped.

As much as I understand people having several time in a row the same pinacle drop, I think that it's normal (on a mathematical point of view with pure RNG ), that if you need only [i]one[/i] last item, this one is going to take much more time to drop (the helmet in you case). But I get that it can be exasperating !

I know right? Is beyond ridiculous
