My gosh Bungie, what have you done to the engrams???
I was really excited about the new patch. It was going to fix the moron Cryptarch and add some Legendary engram drops to some much needed areas. But clearly something was done to the engram drops and it's been extremely frustrating.
I have played many hours since the patch and I have had zero legendary engram drops. I suppose one could contribute that to terrible luck, but the rares haven't been much better. Since the patch I have been dropped a total of two blue engrams. That is absolutely insane.
Has anyone else experienced this post-patch problem? Am I just having a run of horrible luck or did Bungie really screw up the engram drop system.

I've had about 30-40 blues since the patch and I only play about 3 hours a day. No purples though ):

3 AntwortenWorking as intended mate. You didnt think you were supposed to get something LEGENDARY every few hours of gameplay!?
-
Since patch I'll get atleast one blue as a reward and usually find one per game. So I usually get 8 or so blue and maybe one rare after doing strikes for a few hours.
-
I have had 6 legendaries, and a whole truck full of blues. A tiger strike is a guaranteed blue!

1 AntwortenMy God, it's full of blues

1 AntwortenIve grabbed three legendarys, all of which decoded into a legendary. The blues definitely seem to drop at a better rate BUT they seem to decode into motes of light now much more often. I suppose since the motes are rare(blue) items this still falls in line with what Bungie said the patch would do, but theres only so much to do with those things....

Legendary are hard to come by... because there legendary. You have to play a lot and a lot. I think it would be better if wasn't so random all the time. I wish there was specific and very challenging things you'd have to do to earn them legendary engrams.

1 AntwortenI've leveled up my cryptarch nearly ten times since the update and haven't gotten a legendary engram since. I can only imagine that it's to balance the promise of a purple engram being purple. Oh and that shait about changing ascendant mats to legendary so that it can match the gear it's upgrading..... It's so now you can have some other crap other than legendary gear. And saying I need those materials is crap too because I don't. I've got all I need to finish my way to 30 once I get the raid gloves. Their solutions to our problems are only setting up more loops just so they can keep us trying to run through tar pits to get to our goal. It's one thing to say that this games got more coming and to wait for more content. But it seems almost deliberate that bungie is trying to slow us down by building up grind walls and a terrible loot system. This game is a lot of fun but most of us are getting really burned out on it. As an employee in the video gaming industry, I've seen a lot of people trading Destiny back in. We get it Activision, you don't want anyone to compete with your baby Advanced Warfare, but we know for a fact that you made Bungie gut the game and spread it out, like too little butter over too much bread. This game had so much potential.... Like game of the year twice over potential. Now it's the run of the mill mediocrity that is gaming in this generation. Merchandise developed as a marketing funnel to squeeze as much money as possible from the consumer. I guess I'll wait for some other company to step up and make the revolutionary games. Don't get me wrong, as far as fps mechanics and overall look of the depressingly restricted world go.... Not many can compare. But with story and content, even with all your promised dlcs.... I've played games years older that have done way better as stand alone titles with no additional online content. Maybe it's time you guys went back to the basics with your writing and marketing team and started thinking about those who will govern the fate of your company. Don't think your legacies can keep you afloat forever. If you screw around too much with the consumer you will go under like those that fell before you.

lol the patch did absolutely nothing but to shut people up. think about it: before patch: lots of legendaries but most turn into blues or greens. after patch: guaranteed legendaries but very rarely do you get a legendary. so what did the patch change? absolutely nothing they changed the equation a bit but the end result is still the same. expect these forums to moan once again about the SAME PROBLEM as before. it now just has a different face. bungie trollin ftw

1 AntwortenJust keep hope man i had the worst luck ever absolutely nothing i swear even post patch But then.. BOOM an exotic rifle Out of no where i think it was during a nightfall just try new things man and keep hope
-
people were complaining about how legendary engrams were turning mostly into blues or even greens sometimes. so now they decided to make it to where legendary engrams are guaranteed to be just that or better. you honestly expected the drop rate for legendaries to remain the same after they adjusted the decryption tables? there are other ways to get legendaries other than having them randomly drop from mobs now.
-
The only thing the patch fixed was the strike loot which was needed. The actual drops were nerfed though. I have never seen anyone get a legendary engram as a drop since the patch. You would also think that higher level mobs would have higher drop chances, but nope, they all have the exact same drop rate...
-
Was thinking the same. Not had a single legendary engram drop since
-
I have the same trouble, the game never loot legendary engrame to me since the last patch. Destiny is a perpetual frustrating game. It's silly to give green engrame to level 27's people.
-
Ok, it's official. It was clearly a run of truly terrible luck. Last night I came to the Crypturd with TEN (yes, ten) blue engrams. Yippee!
-
5 AntwortenI've gotten bout 30-40 blue engrams, none of them legendary, over half of them mote of lights... .-. I have gotten ONE legendary engram, it was boots. So, I continue to the decrypter, and proceed to decrypt it... You wanna know what I got? I received 2 Ascendant Energies. Yes, like I need those. Damn you Cryptarch! Why couldn't you just decrypt it into shards or armor so i could dismantle it?!
-
Well instead if getting the purple engrams that turn blue u just get a lot more blues Have gotten about 8 or so purples since patch and 2 of them turned to exotics So drop rate kinda the same
-
I've gotten 4-5 legendaries and probably 25-30 rares since the patch so maybe just your luck? Got two from the daily story missions at level 28 difficulty
-
IF you look back at alot of the games that have loot drops and chance for epic/rare weapons and armor if you have lots of people with that, then the game can get boring, its the rarity that makes the game replayable, and the challenge to keep coming back is to see wether you will get that legendary drop that time or not, if it was a sure thing and everyone was completing the strikes and raids, then there would be no need to continue playing once you got that legendary armour or exotic weapons.

1 AntwortenThey've only done what the players wanted... But nobody ever though what that would imply, of course.
-
read the patch notes then do what gives legendaries
-
2 AntwortenI've Had several ledge engrams and tons of blues, I mainly patrol, moon missions. Haven't done any tigers. I've Levelled the cryp several ranks as well, but only got blues from him (cryp 29) Just passing on my info

5 AntwortenBearbeitet von Sir Jecht: 10/4/2014 6:35:56 PMThe guaranteed purples to legendary By doing this, the lowered the drop rate; made them more rare And I doubt u can get a purple engram outside of tiger vanguard strike. If u do, yay you. But anyway. I did 4 lvl 24 strikes and got 2 legendaries. They turned to shit tho but i got some materials. But if you're bitxhing that you have yet to get a purple engram then you're probably still doing loot cave bullshit Edit; notice u bitchd about blue too. They noticed that people would hoard blues to lvl up cryptarch for legendaries. Now he rarely gives legends and on top of that like I said earlier; drop rate is lowered. Some times I got 20 mins before a green drops. I don't care. I need raid gear anyway. So Git gud
-
1 AntwortenMy problem is that a green engram gave me a white item. all engrams are supposed to provide an item of that color or better after the patch no?

RNGesus hates you. That is all.

RNG hates you. I haven't got a legendary since patch but I never got legendary drops often anyways. Rares everywhere for me in strike playlist 24
