Greetings,
There have been some issues involving the engram drops after Update 2.4.0 went live on September 8th, 2016. From some posts here on the forums that explain a bit less on what is really going on. For the sake of it all to hopefully get this a proper chance to be heard and fixed; let me sum it all up regarding the drop issues that I and everyone else are probably experiencing:
1). Green Engrams are dropping for players in their 300+ Light range. What I have noticed is that all of those engrams are from Year One expansions commonly House of Wolves drops. None of the green engrams I have seen dropped after the update are from the Taken King Expansion.
2). The Blue Engrams are dropping and the items are showing up as 200 Light to about 250 Light if lucky. From my experience I have only seen Armor go up to 260+ Light all the weapon blue engrams are just dropping as 200-245 Light. There have been at least three Blue engrams that have given me 170 Light weapons and/or armor.
3). Three Of Coins are also being affected. I do not know yet if everyone is experience this issue, but for myself it is an issue that I do want to put out here. When using the Three of Coins for Exotic Engram drop I only seem to get Legendary engram drops instead of Exotic Engram drops. This is a bit frustrating and hopefully this especially gets investigated.
From those three that is pretty much all that seems to be causing players problem after the last update two days ago. Though maybe there are some stuff that I have missed, but maybe the rest of the community can shed more light on the issues regarding the impact that the update has caused for the engram drops.
Note: Those who are experiencing issues with engrams not listed please comment about the problems you are having. When I get the chance I will add it to my list of issues affected after the update. Also, Whining about the Shoulder Charge nerf isn't on topic for this post and those who are having engram issues most likely do not want to hear it. Be mindful and helpful and not mindless and ignorant.
Thanks,
SlyTribalFox

2 AntwortenBearbeitet von Solar_Pudding: 9/20/2016 4:43:22 PMAnyone know if Engrams still dropping with super low light post-release? *edit* nope, I just cashed in the engrams I had from last week and they all were actually much higher than I have normally seen!
-
This is ridiculous! I am level 40 319 and have been getting nothing but green engrams in the 140-200 range. They are dropping like crazy. I must have gotten 20-30 yesterday. I have been popping 3oc before every ultra and have wasted 20+ without getting a single exotic. I did get an exotic in pvp but it was a 319 bad juju and I was using a 321 bad juju in that match. It is so screwed up!! I hope something is done to fix this asap!!

Just ran three consecutive Strikes with the 'Vanguard Streak' buff activated and did NOT get any Legendary engrams..., but I got some GREENs.

Bungie - Fix the Engram issues...irritating and filling up character slots - Useless!!!

1 AntwortenNo, exotic engrams are still dropping just the drop rate is a big toss up. Did a 2 hr strike run doing about 15 and only got one engram and it was towards the end. I think once you hit about 7-8 it should be a guarenteed exotic engram drop but its still RNG what kind it is and what it gives.

I think this may be a result of ROI and its new light level cap. The update seems to have reset engram decypting and resulting LL to year 1 levels. It won't change until ROI goes live, or maybe when ROI can auto-download on the 18th. Rumor is you should hang onto your legendary and exotic engrams because after ROI goes live, these will decrypt to the adjusted loot tables and new light levels. Unlike previous expansions, this may be how bungie is resolving the crappy LL decrypts going on right now with the last update. Also, as always, park your character(s) at just before gaining the next faction level and then after ROI level up for those factions for packages and a crack at the new loot right off the bat. I'm trying this: leveling up and hanging onto the package, getting close to the level after that, and waiting until after ROI before opening the packages and levelling again for another package and perhaps getting two chances per faction for new stuff with higher LL.

i get at least 20 green engrams drop instead of blue or purple all the time on a regular base im tired or that green shit drop all my characters are 335 and its an insult to see this ..this is not the first time it happens after an update ..they always mess everything at every update so when are they going to fix that one ,,get rid of those green .
-
This is happening to me and all my friends that are playing all I was getting throughout the day aid was greens but on the other hand they increased the drop rate of legandary weapons in crucible
-
Same here.... Not sure if this is a bug or a cautionary tale what your game will be like if you don't buy RoI, but it definitely doesn't encourage me to play right now...
-
Agree, they want no one two play this game frim now til ROI. The games current state is the worst I have seen it, been playing religiously since Beta.
-
6 Antwortenthe trouble with exotics is that the green engrams are back in the loot pool removing almost all but a slim chance of receiving an exotic engram drop.
-
Bungie could atleast say they were going to do this if its been done deliberately and not a bug. Would like a response from bungie.
-
23 AntwortenI find it frustrating as I'm level 314 and now it's really hard to level up. It's ridiculous that I have to wait over a week until the dlc comes out just so I can level up :(
-
On the + side, have noticed completing weekly weapons testing has resulted in a legendary engram. The reward is similar to leveling up in a faction, pretty sweet. But still tired of cleaning out my junk engrams every 5 minutes.
-
Alright, I know I complained about the drop rate awhile ago but today it has been amazingly good. Twice today I got exotics twice in a row. Still can't get an exotic helmet though (Seriously I get one helmet out of MAYBE 25 exotics and I'm probably being generous) But yeah today has probably made up for the extremely long drought I had immediately after the update

Bearbeitet von SoAnnoying: 9/14/2016 5:14:02 PMOK, so the other day I ran 3 consecutive Strikes with the 'Vanguard Streak' buff activated and did NOT get any Legendary. Well, it seems the issues has been "resolved". I'm still NOT getting any Legendary engrams.... That's because the 'Vanguard Streak' buff NEVER activated while running consecutive Strikes. What the hell is going on...!
-
I'm not sure about #3, since friends and I have been getting exotics at vaguely expected rates, but definitely experiencing #1 and #2 with blues and legendaries. I have characters between 310 and 335 light, and on all of them, decrypting blues seems to average around 245 and decrypting legendaries seems to average around 265, regardless of character light level. It's making getting my friend up to 300 very difficult. Also, I'm seeing greens on my 335, which hasn't seen them in a long time, and at this point they're just getting in the way. Any word from Bungie on this?
-
2 AntwortenSame issue with me. At first I thought it was an update issue that would work itself out after grinding through some missions, but no... It is very frustrating to spend hours playing the heroic strikes and running missions through the Dreadnaught just to CONTINUALLY decrypt engrams that have nothing higher than 250 light (I'm around 312). Add to that the detritus of greens that just keep showing up, forcing me to have to continually go in and purge them from my registers to keep space open for blues/purples which, unfortunately, now aren't returning anything over 250/260 max... Anyone know what the deal is? Is something broken? I'm getting to the point where I don't want to spend time with it any more if I know nothing I do will advance my light level. I just can't imagine this is how this should be working?

Bearbeitet von An IDIOTNinja: 9/14/2016 11:33:07 AMEven the Legendary engrams are dropping at very low light levels. Crucible drops are around 260-280 & I just decrypted a rare to a legendary at 264. Frustrating
-
I have the same issue. Please fix.
-
I don't have a problem with the Green engrams dropping, as long as they're not dropping in place of blues. More greens just means more weapon parts and armor materials. What is dumb though is that Blues are only around 250 at the highest unless you do CoE. My brother in law is at 260 light, now how is he supposed to level up other than ranking up factions, vanguard etc.?

Bearbeitet von BGREEN1138: 9/14/2016 4:24:50 AMPlayed 6 rounds of crucible today used 3oC each time, got one exotic. 331 mk.44s, unfortunately I was running a Warlock. I'm having the same problem as everyone else with all the green engrams and blue not dropping over about 245 on average.
-
Have yet to have any of my three of coins work properly, they stay active for three or four strikes and I get no rewards. I do seem to be getting an large amount of uncommon and rare engrams throughout the strikes as well as no legendary marks.
-
Same here. I've been cleaning up green engrams like I'm picking up trash across destiny playing field. I just got done with the Daily and my 334 ish that haven't seen a green engram in over a year n half just grabbed 16. Had to keep cleaning it out to pick up other stuff. I didn't want to chance missing something because the postmaster didn't get it. I have also had the same issue with blue. The level is spit. Now 3oc. I have played 15 and received one item at 334. I did receive a exotic from shax that was 300. Not sure why so low but oh well.
-
Same here as well.. Also, upon completion of the 5 weekly Crucible bounties from Shaxx, my usually awesome rewards dropped from 335 to 300. Really sucks grinding out those bounties, only to get low level exotic drop or weapon. Not sure if anyone else has mentioned this issue.

3 AntwortenWas just talking to my friends about this problem, one of them that is a Destiny vet says that this is just how the game works when there is a new expansion. I honestly wouldn't know since I joined the Destiny community a year after The Taken King was released, but something I have noticed that seems to be working is doing the challenge of elders. I've done it twice so far and I've gotten blue engrams at 315 and one at about 320. Also popped a 3oc on an ultra and got an exotic. So far challenge of elders has been the only thing that has helped. Haven't tried doing the raid again. But crucible and heroic strikes continue to give me the crap that everyone else is getting
