Yep, they're bugged, no doubt. Sometimes it's raining heavy, other times it's like a dry riverbed in a desert. Sometimes I'll wear them and my team mates will be getting the heavy drops and I'll get nothing.
I've honestly never encountered a game company that had such incompetent programmers as "New Bungie". I mean, after months they haven't even patched the heavy loss or ammo synthesis bugs.

You have too much stuff in your inventory. If u have 227 spinmetal, 50 heavy ammo, or doubles of stuff. Put them in the vault. It does cause the glitch for heavy synth not working. I dropped some shards, ether seeds, re spawn, network codes, and never had an issue.

I've known how to fix this for a while, but thank you (sincerely) for trying to help. In my opinion, the fact that there's an unintuitive work around doesn't excuse Bungie from fixing this, when it should be just a few lines of code and they supposedly have 500 active developers. Just the other night I swapped characters out real quick to help some friends on Crota's End, but I forgot that I was holding all my telemetries on that character because there's not enough vault space, and found myself unable to use Heavy Synthesis when it was needed. So I'm still pissed about it.

The way I see it, is they have a timer. You get heavy, and it'll be 15 ish minutes until I get a large quantity of heavy to drop again
