like I keep hearing stories of people doing sundered doctrine 50+ times and never getting exotic let alone the legendary weapon rolls they want, which is pretty infuriating and not rewarding at all
and as someone who tried multiple times to do the triumphs solo, it was utterly miserable and horrid, the only time I actually felt rewarded is when the contest mode came back again, and completed it with a team who all had the same frustrations as me, and when we finally got the exotic, we didnt even want to do the dungeon again to get any of the legendary weapons because it wasn't fun or rewarding
and there have been really nasty cases of people doing a raid 100+ times and never getting the exotic weapon and just quitting the game permanently because of it [which is justified to be honest]
so to solve all of these issues why not just add bad luck protection? if they added a quest to obtain a raid's/dungeon's exotic or specific weapon with multiple options that would solve a lot of issues

so heres the idea, imagine if you got an exotic quest from completing any encounter of a raid or dungeon, and it's a 2 step quest which has 4 options to obtain the exotic, akin to seasonal exotic catalyst quests:
1 either do a full completion of said raid or dungeon [all 3 encounters] 20-25 times to get the exotic guaranteed
2 do the 3rd encounter of said raid or dungeon 30-35 times
3 get the raid or dungeon title which is the highest form of challenge but it's guaranteed to get the exotic
4 get the dungeon or raid exotic from sheer random drop chance, the most obvious but random route
and once you obtain the exotic, you can then visit banshee or do some hidden mechanic from a certain encounter to get the exotic catalyst and complete the quest
and this would do wonders, you still have a grind, you still have to put time and effort into it, but at least you actually get something for your time and effor than get screwed over from such atrocious drop rates, considering all raid/dungeon exotics have a 2%-4% drop rate which doesn't sound fair or rewarding at all, especially since you have to pay money to access these dungeons and raids.

1 RispondiFunny thing is Croat’s end already has that in place to get the exotic so it’s not even a new system they would have to design. The only exotic I grinded for was vexmythocast which took about 8 months of weekly clears , but after that I was done. If I happened to get a drop in the first few runs great but I wasn’t doing that again.
