It's not random so until Bungie adjusts your drop rates - you may never get it You may get 10 of a particular weapon and 0 of another - depends on which algorithm your account is on

    Actually bungie has said it is not RNG, it is PLS. Private Loot Stream. They said there is still some RNG involved but it is not strictly RNG.

  • Ya that's not the original video I watched before but basically the same from the little bit I watched. There are more interviews with him on youtube.

    I'm aware. PLS actually relies on RNG. It is still RNG.

  • *sigh* don't believe what he said, the loot system is RNG, no one has a so called separate loot table.

    Search youtube and you will find a video with an interview of Pete Parsons at E3. This is what he said. “We have a set number of weapons [and we] balance each and every one of them, including all of [the] achievements, it’s just a huge amount of work. That number will continue to grow, and we also have exotics on top of that. “We want everybody to be excited to come in and play, so we have private loot streams, which means everything in Destiny is meant for your character. You’re not fighting over weapons as they drop from enemies and it gives you a really good reason to go back to places you’ve already been before… Maybe I’ve been playing Destiny for a long time and you’ve only been playing for a few hours; there’s a still a reason for us to go back and play together and we’ll still get something great out of it.”

  • Oh just like all the old stuff the game was going to have and was cut? Just like the HoW data mine showed there was gonna be a raid? You mean all the old info that has been changed? Still couldn't find your bungie employee saying this, still not confirmed until bungie say otherwise.

  • No not like old content that was removed. This is the actual underlying game engine. They don't simply change that 2 months before the game launches. Here you go moron. http://youtu.be/VKMdGWCIWdc

  • Find it yourself it's called google. If it was RNG then you would still get low level gear when your a high level. But you don't because it is PLS, not RNG.

  • Already did, Reddit is not bungie and the poster is not an employee, unless you can provide a direct link from bungie.net it's another theory with out proof.

    I said youtube not reddit retard. Bungie.net isn't proof either. I only believe what I see coming out of bungies mouth. I don't care if you want to believe the truth or not. I am just trying to provide you with the facts. If you want to go find a year old video on youtube go right ahead but I'm not going to. I have already seen it.

  • You have no proof it is rng other than Bungie claims but the only way to explain the strange drop rates for some and drops rates for others is due to various loot tables or algorithms Explain the statistics for me please I have received from crotas raid 4-5 helmets 4-5 gauntlets 4-5 boots 0 chest pieces Please explain the odds and rng Statistics don't lie That is not rng - sorry but you can claim otherwise all you want but the only logical explanation is various loot tables and algorithms

    ? - your rationale makes absolutely no sense Please explain the above odds and probabilities and tell me those statistics are random You can't because those odds are highly unlikely and improbable but it seems to be the case for every account - certain items may never drop for a player or the percentages are too low( until of course Bungie adjusts the percentages) - the only explanation logical is that there are loot tables Your post is irrational and not really on point - according to your rng - the randomness would not allow such great variations in loot drops unless loot tables and percentages did exist - odds would be that a person would not get 10 icebreakers and not one Gally - hence your rng is bs - you might be able to claim 1-4 variations but not in the numbers we read about in these forums It's all statistics and probability Earlier I stated I never have received the chest piece from crota and 4-5 pieces of every other gear item - strange odds In my topic discussing my issue earlier today - another player stated similar issues whereas he received multiple gear pieces of each but no helmets - strange huh It's actually easy to explain and the statistics support it - Bungie has loot tables

    Lol you can't spout statistics when your complaining about not receiving a chest piece from a check point that doesn't drop it. It's like saying I've been doing Crota raids but never received an Atheons epilogue.. Well maybe he doesn't drop it lol. The drop rate for a chest piece is like 1 in 4 on a specific checkpoint, now go roll a dice and tell me how it's statically impossible that you don't roll every single different number one after the other, by your knowledge in 6 rolls you should not have the same number multiple times?

    What four sided dies actually exist? How the heck do those work? Not trying to do a troll post I was just curious that's all. No hard feelings and a four sided die does sound cool and I would like to know where to get one if at all possible.
