Hello deej, I have been very excited about destiny during the hype and I bought it the first day it came out. Anyway, me and this fire team beat anthem on hard mode, some got the mythoclas, some got raid set gear, others some other weapons, and I got ascendent energy. Why is ascendent energy even considered loot worth the time and effort of beating atheon (it was just 8 by the way). Now, I am not one for complaining about video games but when this happens to me for this and the nightfall strike I become a little annoyed. This whole rant is leading up to one question. Why is the entire destiny economy based on a 100% random based loot system. It is impossible for me and probably many others to reach level 30 and soon level 32 because of just luck. I understand why the developers would be hesitant to make trading available between players due to corruptibility. But, if there was something like an auction system for players to buy something, it would be a much better system. Maybe this won't be read. Maybe it won't be taken to consideration. Maybe I'm just annoyed that I got ascendent energy from the nightfall and atheon on hard mode but please take this to consideration because i know other players feel the same way.

  • Destiny was supposed to have trading. It all would make sense;RNGesus would be perfect for an in-game economy. Look at WoW. BTW don't own video.Title is slightly misleading, video discusses a broader net then what you would guess.Also, check his part 2 out, it delves deeper. Don't Buy The Dark Below or House of Wolves Desti…: http://youtu.be/UZ5BpeHVTWY

    Nothing can be as bad as when I finished the nightfall. The two other guys got patience and time. Both of them got it at the same time. I got a legendary shotgun......

  • 100% random loot based ? Just go away with ur troll. It is easy to have a lot of weapon (exo or legendary). Atm, i got about 7/8 exotic weapons and i think it's too easy to get them. Then, there is Xur each week-end to sell to random player some exotic weapon and stuff. So don't complain about it. I think nobody want to see Destiny coming a casual game

    There is no luck, just farm. If u do night assault + weekly assault + raid + random assault or pvp, u'll get legendary/exotic. And i forgot exotic missions + Xur, so please this post is ridiculous.

  • Isn't there luck in the matter of time when you get what you came for? The time it takes you to get what you want, isn't that based on your luck?

    Ofc it is, but when we read his post he means like it's so difficult to get some good weapons or stuff. So i was telling to him that's not true. Ofc if you wanna a specific item, it will be difficult to have it because it's random. Sorry for my english, isn't perfect ^^.

  • Im sorry but I noticed something, your grimoire is under 1800 and you have done the raid a total of 6 times. You don't even deserve to be level 29 let alone 30, please shut the -blam!- up and actually put some time into the game. Maybe you will actually earn something. If they gave exotics and raid gear away to bad players or people putting very little time in this game would be pointless.

  • They do give exotics away to bad players. One of the reasons I don't really play crucible

  • same situation happened to me, all i want is raid helm and vex mythoclast... but all i ever manage to get from raids are ascendant shards. All 3 of my characters have reached level 30 and i have now stacked up to just under 300 shards. Why cant i just trade these shards to somebody for energy or better, for a gun ive wanted or a piece of armour i need? Destiny needs something besides 100% random luck, iron banner gear that can hit level 30 was good because it was a 100% guarentee if you do this you may buy this. Why cant it be like that for everything? Do this you may now do these options with these items. NOPE, just gonna keep it 100% freakin random... Only major downfall i see to this game.

  • Use them to upgrade your gear. You have level 30 gear on all 3 my man. I'm not even trying to be a dick. Legit. Just run raid for shards and do dailys, level your shit to max and your 30 with what you have

  • Yeah I hear you but if you want to legitimately be 30 you need to just level the gear. But I hear you about the guns. Energies are a bitch

    He did say he has shards and wished he could trade for energy, which leads me to believe he doesn't have the necessary energy to upgrade his pew pew's Sorry dude just re-read the post and I'm totally wrong, just ignore me ha
