Have you obtained a strike catalyst?

Yes (I’m over Vanguard rank 50)

569

Yes (I’m not over Vanguard rank 50)

196

No (I’m over Vanguard rank 50)

898

No (I’m not over Vanguard rank 50)

509

I just got the Wardcliff catalyst today. I’m rank 62 with Zavala and I have 220 additional tokens. Just curious to see how everyone else is being treated by RNG. Edit: I realize that using Vanguard ranks as a gauge for this probably isn’t the most accurate option considering variables such as challenges granting additional tokens and the fact that many people did save up tokens from season 2, it was just to get a more general idea. Edit #2: STRIKE CATALYSTS ARE: Wardcliff, Prometheus Lens, Coldheart, Riskrunner, and Merciless

  • Finally got one. Prometheus lens catalyst dropped today during a heroic strikes. I haven't turned in tokens at all this season, had enough left over from season 2 to hit lvl 50 as soon as season 3 dropped. Have almost two stacks of vanguard tokens now though...so have done a fair amount of strikes At least I know they are out there, but I won't be grinding for them

    I'm rank 111 with the Vanguard, with 1,200 more tokens I could hand in, and I've only gotten the Catalyst for Coldheart and Merciless.

  • They might as well not exist for me. I've done Heroics and Nightfalls for weeks and am roughly 95 with the Vanguard. Not a single damn one has dropped. The closest I've gotten was a random getting one in the Nightfall.

  • I have all 5 strike catalysts. The drop rate is roughly 1 catalyst per 100 heroic strikes or prestige nightfall’s. I’m currently at 560 combined heroic strikes and prestige nightfall’s since May. There is a video out there with another guy that has all 5 and he describes the drop rate as the same. Hope the info helps.

      I have run 500+ strikes since Warmind launch and have all but Coldheart and Merciless. It took me 250 strikes for the first one (Coil) to drop. This past week, I ran ~75 Prestige NF’s, all above the threshold, and only had Riskrunner drop. My teammates received 6 catalysts between them over those 75 runs. One of them now has all 5 after running less than 200 strikes, and the other is at 4/5 with less than 200 strikes. I have now gone 65 consecutive prestige NF’s over the threshold without a drop, placing my overall strike catalyst drop rate at around 0.6%. No RNG protection is straight up bullshit.

          • Lucked out with Riskrunner, but would have killed for Prometheus Lens. I saw this in a previous post earlier, but I agreed with it so much I may as well restate it: there should be minimal RNG involved in catalysts. It takes the fun and challenge right out of upgrading a gun. The objectives are often hard enough themselves! Don’t lock it behind a mindless 100 hour grind!

          • I have Prometheus lens and coldheart. I think I got them roughly 3 weeks apart lol. I didn't do 600 strikes in that 3 week period but I did quite a few on all 3 guardians. Now I'll have to wait another 3 weeks or more. Oh well.

            • 53 rank with 478 tokens amd zero catalysts!! could be rank 76 but kept them for 380 drops. Do they drop from the boss himself or the chest after?

              • Yes. Quite a few. I usually don't even notice they drop. Just got Prometheus yesterday.

              • No. Rank 51.....with 533 Vanguard tokens stockpiled. So according to the App, I'd be rank 77 if I turned all of them in.

                  I've managed to snag Prometheus, Coldheart and my most recent was merciless. First drop was about 3 weeks ago and I play alot (although not specifically grinding strikes until somewhat recently) To note, mine all came from heroic strikes and no nightfalls and I had played a ton of those working from the NF specific loot. According to d2 checklist I have about 275 ranks across my character plus i'm sitting on another 2000 tokens.

                • Strike catalyst? Pfft. Yeah, sure pal. And it was Bigfoot who handed it to me.
