Why aren't catalysts dropping for so many players Bungie? I've been doing prestige nightfalls and heroic strikes for weeks trying to get the Wardcliff Coil catalyst but it won't drop. Same with raids. I do my milestones every god -blam!-ing damn week then grind for hours with no results. This is -blam!-ing pathetic. Stop wasting people's time for FS. SAD

It feels like the time invested is not rewarded at all. Too many players I roll with have given up. Great way to incentivize re-engaging certain activities eh?
-
Yeah, it's so obviously bugged, it's not even funny. Something is screwed up. I have hundreds of hours now since the exotic catalysts were released across all modes, and I do not have a single catalyst. It is absolutely obnoxious and really pisses me off in PvP feeling like I have a disadvantage that I have no control over.

Bungie will tell us in the last week of Season 3 that "Ooops, we just discovered the drop rate for Strike, NightFall and Crucible Catalysts was actually 0.05%, not 5%. Sorry about that.."
-
I have plenty of catalysts though seems your just unlucky
-
You'll get it eventually, just hang in there. I imagine that catalyst is not gonna be Season 3 exclusive. WC catalyst is worth it though, the missiles can turn on a dime once they get closer.
-
This won't be addressed until after forsaken is released. Cause bungie is famous for stopping communication about whats currently wrong when its in Sales/Lie/Hype mode. And we are definitely in Hype mode.
-
This may seem silly but you never know. Are the people that are doing 80 to 100 strikes for a catalyst using said exotic to get kills? Or just hoping it drops by doing strikes?
-
Crimson, Vigilance Wing and Jade Rabbit dropped for me this week.
-
Get them the bungie way by throwing money at the screen.

I'm roughly rank 60 on the Vanguard and haven't gotten a single strike catalyst. I've gotten all of the general ones as well both Lances, and could probably go for the Cruicible ones as they seem to be dropping fairly. Yet, after 3 weeks of grinding even for a long as 4 hours at a time, nothing.
-
When I see posts like this, I immediately think that as usual Bungie are up to their usual tactics of deceiving people. I doubt this is any different to the xp throttling, its just another way to keep you hanging around longer.

I made a post earlier about exactly this thing. People are frustrated with strike specific drops (catalysts/DFA). My suggestion was Zavala could sell a "pursuit" that would be tied to one of these specific items. The pursuit would work just like the nascent dawn item that we all used to get the Polaris lance and its catalyst. The tasks would be strike related, for example: complete 50 heroic/nightfall strikes, kill 50 mobs under the effects of disorienting blow, kill 500 mobs with supers, etc. It could be a little grindy but not ridiculously so. One thing I have noticed about games is people DO NOT like RNG and DO like working towards a goal.
-
After 80-100 nf runs trying to get the DFA I got 2. Ward cliff and crimson
-
How can you play that many strikes? The latest (story missions) are on such heavy rotation & they're so bad.
-
I heard they drop in the game. I got tractor cannon,darci,jade rabbit and crimson. Ill be honest with you outside of the orbs of light on dlb kills catalyst for exotics mean nothing.

Bearbeitet von Neo Revanuk: 6/25/2018 5:16:29 PMI only need the Wardcliff, Coldheart, Riskrunner and Huckleberry and i've been trying for them all, I got the Prometheus Lense catalyst without realising, only knew when I saw it highlighted in my vault so I'm still not sure when or where I got it from. I went with dead orbit and got the GL catalyst and will be going with NM next week for the Sweet Business Catalyst as the FWC Sunshot Catalyst is less than impressive. I have :- Vigilance Wing Jade Rabbit The Colony Skyburners Oath Tractor Cannon D.A.R.C.I. Prometheus Lense Gaviton Lance Crimson Polaris Lance World line Zero Mida is something that I probably won't get as I don't really play competative, the strike specific Catalyst drop rates do need tweeking though.
-
Over 200 valor wins and no catalysts.
-
Over 100 heroics/NF and not a single catalyst drop. I know there are lots of people with more heroics/NF completions than that, but it still sucks to do that many runs with ZERO rewards. Seems legit.
-
Yeah I gave up after week 3 of the release. It is Bungie saying this is how you play more. I am finding more fun with state of decay 2. It is repetitive as hell but at least even the rare items drop after awhile.
-
I've given up trying to get them, waste of time. Once I am done with milestones, its wait for next reset. I wouldn't bother trying for them anyway since most of them are useless. I have the merciless one and its underwhelming.
-
I completely agree it's a waste of time. No reason for the drop rate to be so low on them. I honestly suggest playing something else instead of farming exclusively for them. It's not worth your time, of which Bungie does not respect no matter what they say.
-
Strike Catalysts absolutely need an adjustment to drop rate. I literally ran 80 Prestige Nightfalls this weekend and got nothing. It took two people in my clan almost 200 runs before they got drops. I know others that have 300+ runs and have no strike catalysts. Working as intended I think not. Moreover there are 5 strike specific catalysts so not only is the drop rate ridiculously low, it is even worse because if you only care about one specific catalyst you have a 1 in 5 chance at whatever absurdly low drop rate they are set at. I am all about grinding but strike catalysts have got to be adjusted or moved into other activities as well like raids and trials.
-
There should be failsafes. # of hours. # of times completed activity.

I've only gotten the Merciless cat (not including all the easy cats everyone gets) and I have 4 stacks of vanguard tokens. RNG is strong with this, I only wish if a player has all the exotics in the game that they can forgo ever dropping one for a higher chance of dropping cats.

I’m rank 120 with vanguard and not had one strike catalyst drop 😒 fml
