Anyone worried that three of coins is just a waste?

I used 100 three of coins today, only got 5 exotics. Anyone else having this issue please comment below! Edit: Thanks for your thoughts. Makes me feel a bit better.

  • I used about 10 yesterday and I got about 4 or five exotic engrams. It was my lucky day for sure.

    This week's poe challenge is perfect, just enough time in between bosses..it has been pretty consistent for me lately [spoiler]although I do have to drop my light level to 334 to get 335s[/spoiler]

    • I only use them for crucible, that seems to be the best chance for a drop right now.

    • I use 2 a day and average 1 exotic per week

    • Leave more time between using them. It's normally a 20% chance but everytime you use one inside the cooldown this reduces. Given your drop rate I'm guessing it's somewhere around 5%.

    • They work. It's just random.

    • Nope, used one earlier today before mayhem clash and got a 320 Hereafter, then used another later during challenge of elders and got a NLB. Prob have to mention the 10 i used last week without any dropping but they arent meant to be a guarantee

      • The exotic drop rate aren't the problem. The duplicates are.

      • Not just you. I've gotten the PoE exotics at the end but only had one exotic engram drop. I was thinking it was bugged out because not a single legendary or even blue was dropping on bosses for like 10 rounds. Nightfall though? Rewards were 100% trash. I was really disappointed.

        • The only place I've noticed them not working was during challenge of the elders. I used 12 and got 0. That could just be a bad streak but I usually get 1 every 10 tries or so.

          • Nope. I used 3 last night and got a 324 Zen Meteor to drop from the hive champion. I stopped trying to farm them, and use 3oc as I play different things. Noticed playing crucible and popping every other match has not worked so well so I mix it up. Used two in crucible then left to turn in the wormsinger rune and popped another before I bagged the champ. It sounds super cool when you shoot it.

          • The fact that 3 of coins even exist is a blessing. You used to only get exotics from the nightfall, raid and maybe crucible (if you were super lucky)

              I feel like it only works on 1 character a week and it's random which character and only max 2 exotic engrams for me. Side note does it still show if you have to the buff on character screen?

            • Just been through about 26 over 4 days without a drop and it's not the first time that's happened, the cool down method ...no good as far as my rng is concerned, 3 of coins is laughing all the way to the bank ..... Or is it the tax collector? Lol.

            • It's all random. I've been getting one every 3 or 4 I use but I'm sure that I'm in for a dry spell. It be nice if they had some kind of system where maybe if you use 15 or so without luck something kicks in and you are guaranteed to get one.

            • You have to time them out. I think the cool down when you get an exotic is 15-20 minutes or a strikes worth of time. It will allow you to pop it without warning though. Don't waste, utilize the timing.

            • Youre in a drought. It happens. I've been there.pop, pop, nothing. But I did malok nightfall last week and got 3 exotic engrams to drop along with the hood of malok and one other legendary engram. So never give up. That was all from one nightfall by the way, the two friends weren't happy as I jacked their engrams lol. It makes for a great showcase on my profile all those exotics and legendary engrams laying about.

                  I used 30 the last 10 hours and got 1, they nerfed it and didn't say anything to the fan base. I mean you can tell they're nerfed. People waste all their coins on 3oC's and don't even get rewarded.

                    • Yes, god yes ! The month before update I was flying high. Every 4-5 coin gave me an exotic. Last weekend I got 3 double drops! After the update, it's been painful. I used 125 3ofcoins this week and prob got 8 engrams. I used 15 coins on my 3 raids this morning - I only got One ! One !

                      I usually get one every 3 to 5 on average I only ever use one at a time and never stack them (imo and experiences it makes no difference and is a waste) either one every third heroic or third crucible match. Sometimes on the rare occasion Ill see a double engram drop. Also psions and omnigoo strike bosses wont drop exotics from 3oC apparently.

                      • Got exotics from two straight crucible games yesterday using 3oC. I only played 3 games yesterday. I'd call that a pretty good day. Everyone has droughts, but eventually luck will even out, and you'll get a higher percentage.
