Raid Loot System / Weapon Adjustments

I've ran the raid on 2 different characters on normal and 1 of them on hard as well (the past 2 weeks) for 4 weeks in a row and have yet to get a single piece of raid gear.... Bungie, PLEASE at least reward the .6% of us (ps4 stat) who have completed the "hardest part of your game" with some type of guaranteed reward. A special shader, a special bond/mark/cloak, a special emblem or SOMETHING more than ascendant materials. I come from World of Warcraft and I know a lot about getting nothing from boss fights. However, at least Blizzard graces you with titles and achievements and/or mounts for completing their most difficult challenges. I see no benefit in completing your Raid on hard again since I've now gotten an exotic head piece (therefore not in need of the raid set piece) and since you've nerfed the Vex Mythoclast so horrendously that it's not even worth trying to obtain. I love this game Bungie, but when it comes to pleasing your consumer base, you're your own worst enemy. Stop adjusting weapons for PvE and PvP and make adjustments separately like in WoW. The Vex Mythoclast should hit as hard as it used to in PvE, just nerf it down in PvP and please adjust the ratio of gear / ascendant material drops in the raids. Sick of seeing people at lvl 30 that have ran it twice and I've got nothing to show for my dedication but a legendary spaceship full of ascendant materials that keep piling up because I can't use them on anything. In summary, there's nothing more underwelming that defeating the Templar or Atheon on hard and seeing 2 Ascendant Energies/Shards plop on my screen as some kind of reward. Please consider making some minor changes to improve the loot system. Thanks. Your Fan. The Whiner.

  • I made a post regarding this everyone just glazed over for whatever reason... here is how the current raid rewards should be rewarded (and not included in the RNG loot table in place of weapons/raid-gear... f**king dumb you did that Bungie!): - Leg Shader for beating the first boss in normal - Leg Ship for beating entire raid in normal - Leg Sparrow for beating raid in Hard Mode These items should never have been included in the RNG loot table in place of actual items dropping. I have heard from several people they had gotten multiple of the ships (for loading screens) and shader instead of real loot. That is ridiculous, these items should be a only obtainable once per character.

    • Since playing the raid quite a few times and only getting ascendant materials and copycat weapons, is there any sort of percentage score on what loot drops in the vault of glass? It would make completing a raid without anything decent more understandable if I knew the % chance of getting a certain item.

    • I'm sick of armor. I want guns from the raid. I have done the raid on hard over 20x and have yet to get Athens Epilogue, Vex, Praedyths, Timepiece. I got 2 legs from the oracles thus week in one loot. I turned the game off.

      I feel your pain. I myself have done the raid 28 times and even after creating a 2nd character, I have finally recieved one piece of raid armor, gauntlets. But yet I have a buddy who plays on Tuesday only who managed to get a full set of raid gear, with the exception of a helmet, in a single raid. He has a 1/3 of the hours that i do invested into the game and yet I wont be lvl 30 for atleast another week. Im tired of Truth, Patience and Time, Chatterwhite, The cloak, Atheons Epilouge, Praedyth's Revenge, the stupid sparrow, the ship, shards and energies.

      • Cant say I feel your pain. But I understand it completely. I have a full set of gear and the vex for mu warlock since I can run him twice a week. But the last 3 raids or so I have literally gotten nothing but ascendant material for the titan. I can understand that stuff from the loot chests, or even after templar pt1, but after beating the raid? The loot system is pretty broken in it.

        • I've been having the exact same problem. In a month of raiding I have not seen a single piece. That just shouldn't happen. Maybe I'm asking too much but it seems like I should be Lv. 30 by now. I would at least like to see more ways to get raid armor equivalents.

          • [quote]Well said sir. Well said. See, in World of Warcraft, not only does your guild (same as Clans for Destiny) give you perks but also gives you a better raiding experience. If you have 2 Warriors that need the same piece of gear and that piece happens to drop, they roll on it and whomever wins the roll (1 - 100) gets the piece of gear. BUT here's where having a guild(clan) should be handy. When you're running with those same people the next time and that piece drops, it's guaranteed to go to you. It's called group progression. It's not about only completing a raid but to have a group you play with every week making sure that everyone is gearing up steadily together. Bungie however, has not created anything like this. Apart from being the founding member of the Raging Guardians clan and having some awesome guys to run with, Clans only provide something cool looking under your name inside your emblem. There are no benefits to raiding with your clan as you can't directly help one another progress to lvl 30. Example: trading items. (only between people who were in your raid group when it dropped) My hopes lie in knowing this is a cutting edge, highly innovational game. They have sooo much room for growth. I hope they take the initiative to push the spectrum when it comes to interactive player/Clan relations.[/quote] This is another thing I think they should work on.

          • They should give a different piece of raid gear every raid. They know what you have already. They know how many times you have done the raid. make it worth doing. To be rewarded with shards or energy only is cow doo doo. The raid rewards system is broke and a joke. I know someone that has done it 16 times and still does not have a complete set of raid gear. Bungie, you better fix this broken reward system before players get tired of doing the hardest boss fight for nothing.

          • This appears to be extremely one-sided randomization, since these randomizations seem to be unfavorable to just one person, not just once but on every occasion. In the interest of fairness, shouldn’t the randomization be unfavorably shared among all team members. Why is it that one person is singled out and does not get the same equivalent rewards as everyone else if it is random. To encourage team play, it would seem to make sense that the randomization be shared, so everyone gets shared benefits or shared non rewards. The randomization probability should be shared amongst players to make it fair. It seems like the probability is off like the cryptarch. I just hope it gets looked into and possibly fixed because as is the negatives of the raids outweigh the benefits.

            • Hahaha.. Yup.. It really sucks.. Getting tired looking at the screen after defeating Atheon and The Templar etc on normal & hard every week.. To see shards or energy... Sometimes I get a weapon, but out of about 10+ tries, 4 being on Hard, I've managed to get 2 pieces of Raid armour, and 4 of my team have got a set now... Not even got the cloak, yet the two Titans have both got 5 or more of the Raid Marks lol...

              • I've run it five times and I have not received one piece of raid armor. Hard to take when I have a friend that did it 1.5 times and has everything but the helmet... As far as a guaranteed reward - you pretty much do get that. I have 5 white shaders for my armor and 4 class armors that seem to be just from the Raid. I'd of course rather have raid armor though...

                  I feel your pain i did a total of 9 Hard Raids total of 17 raids. 9 Hard raids still no Vex Mythoclast where as some of my friends done the a total of 5 raids Hard/normal and got 2 character level 30 and the Vex Mythoclast and barely know what his doing in the raid. i guess some people have all the luck hope that the next Raid in the moon that i would have more luck then this one..
