Crucible Activity Rewards

So is there any correlation between performance and rewards here? Because this is the second time where every one on my team has gotten a reward despite having less than half my score. And it "kind of" [b](read: really)[/b] makes me not want to bother.

    Level based +Competition. If you're level is 20, you have less of a chance to get gear as a level 10. Additionally, the harder the enemy, the more reward. If you're lvel 10 going up against a level 20, they have more of an advantage and you may get gear related to your level (Outclassed by level 20 gear.), if you're level 20 going up against level 15's you won't get as much gear. But when you do, it'll be high end gear as opposed to the level 10's gear. Else, its a lot to do with how you play, not so much your score. I found doing the objective more aided, but not always. Its semi-random but bounties may have something to do with it as well. EDIT: I played about 6 games and did fairly well in the crucible yesterday, constantly top of my team. While I only got items in about 2 of those games, I got rares while my teammates got greens and whites. I also got my AR from this (:

      • I find my odds of getting loot improve if i afk. I'm not even trolling or joking. I honestly think bungie has a system in place to help out people with lower kd's.

        • I've being playing quite a bit of crucible myself with good score. I find myself at the top of the leaderboard quite frequently but inspite of that I have not being getting much gear at all. It is very frustrating to put a lot of energy into a game only to find out that someone lower on the leaderboards gets legendary engrams and rare weapons and you get nothing. I hope they improve the rewarding system, it would be nice if the #1 in a team could get a guarenteed reward...

            I have noticed I get certain items from achieving certain things in the crucible. For example, when I won three rumble matches in a row I was awarded the Beowulf armor shader, four wins in a row got me a cloak of some sort. Also I have gotten legendary engrams from Getting multi kills. Also have you noticed sometimes in the crucibl you can hear the shimmer of a chest like you can in the base game when you are near one? I've noticed the more special Ammo crates I pick up the more I tend to get items at the end of the match. Maybe you get rewards for hitting certain milestones in the crucible. Like 50 head shots with scout rifle earns you an engram. Or maybe every 100 Super kills you get a strange coin? Maybe it doesn't matter that you were at the top it matters how stylishly you get there. Anyone else?

          • From my time in the Crucible, it seems to be just random. I've had games where I've done very well and gotten nothing and I've had games where I've done really bad and gotten something and vice versa. There have been games where I've gotten as many as 4 rewards in one match and games where I've gotten nothing. The only thing that I've noticed is that the gear seems to be 2 levels below your current level (on average). At character level 20 if I got a reward, it was generally level 18. I reached level 21 and was getting level 19 rewards. Once I hit level 22 and above I get level 20 rewards. Occassionally I'll get level 16 blue gear for some reason from the unidentified blue engrams from both crucible and drops in the world. Not sure if it's a bug or intended.

            • Crucible and matches are not as "wonderfully" balanced as a fireteam. In a Rumble and All~For~One, I'm seeing mostly Titans. This is kind of a problem in Rumble if you're facing all Titans; combinations of defense and near-based attacks make it difficult in general. In Control it's a bit more chaotic pending on the zone; expect Mars' Bastion and the Moon to have people relying on snipers and vehicles to really do the damage. The current hard part really and in my opinion is how it's easier to find the gear to beef up specials on titans versus the availability of beefing up specials in all other classes. It's not the it's impossible but the gear choices from vendors even for legend gear have been favorable more to my Titan alt than my Hunter. What's making Crucible dry and stale is that players evolve into using "ultimate" combos [unless stubborn like me] which is why most hunter's go in bladedancer with health restoration after kill on blink or super to toss an example out there. It's not that skill isn't a factor but it's rather that even with skills it's tilting balance on one end over another.
