  • UPDATE THE LOOT SYSTEM!!! I can personally say I love this game, but it has a major flaw. I've played almost 3 days time total and have over 16000 kills. I have yet to find an exotic and only a handful of legendaries none of which were for my character. I also have completed around 100 bounties no exotic bounty yet. I have friends who have already had 3 exotic bounties come up? Of course it was on the next gen console.. Those who show defense I would guarantee you haven't had the same luck. I understand that not everyone should be smothered in gear, I understand that you're supposed to immerse yourself in the game, but it took me almost 5 days to get to level 26 from 25. That's stupid? The game depends on you finding gear to level and a piece of gear that bring you up a quarter of your light level a week sucks. Also the gear you do find requires a ridiculous amount of ascendant shards, coils, blooms, etc.. I have no problem with the things I can farm from planets being on the list to upgrade my equipment, but you have to solely rely on finding ascendant materials through gameplay. My example is this: Ted has a legendary set of gauntlets, Mark also has legendary gauntlets. They both are on light level 25 and are looking to hit 26 in order to start attempting the raid. They play a few strikes trying to get some ascendant materials, Mark gets 6 and Ted gets none. These guys are friends they can't progress even though Mark has enough materials (say it costs 3 per upgrade and there is 1 upgrade) you can't even give your friends items or trade. What about all of those crappy legendaries for a warlock and titan I have in my vault you say? I have to spend another 40 hours leveling two characters up to use them. I find that a very unattractive aspect of the game. At least they could make xur buy legendary items you can't use from you for coins so that you could progress. They also need to add a vendor for the materials that you can't find but require to progress. The game is based on total rng, I can understand that completely if the loot system didn't suck ass. It isn't fair to have to go through the 2-6% chance of an enemy spawning an engram, then the engram has like what? An 85% chance of being green, maybe a 12% of blue, 2.5% for purple and lol a .5% for exotic then you have a percent chance of those items you wasted countless hours on farming you have to take to the cryptarch and hope that bastard gives you one item worth your time. After you decrypt said legendaries and exotics that have (take notes here people) a very low percent chance to drop, a low percent chance to decrypt into a legendary or exotic, and a 33.333333% chance of being for your character, and you can't sell those or trade if they aren't. So please hear me out for god sake.. Change this joke of a system. I love the game I really do it's one of the best games I've ever played, but I'm getting sick of playing just to play. The loot is what makes it fun (ask blizzard they know what's up) not killing the same strike bosses over and over again. I'm waiting here though hopefully I won't have to let my character sit in crucible matches over night while I watch netflix to try and get good gear. Cheers.
