Yet Another Trials of Osiris Flaw.. One of Many, In Fact.

Firstly, the initial flaw was the fact that if you opened up the chest at the lighthouse you were meant to receive an exotic emblem called the "Eye of Osiris". The flaw being that if your emblems are full, your exotic emblem doesn't drop. It doesn't even go to the post master as all rare or better items are meant to. Your exotic emblem you're meant to get from attaining nine wins and zero losses in the Trials of Osiris will not be rewarded to you for your efforts if your inventory is full. (Mine was full because of all the House of Wolves emblems filling my inventory) Now, the second flaw. You can go back through Prison of Elders on lvl35 and open the chest again for loot as long as you have a second key, in case anyone didn't know. So after missing out on that emblem I got 9-0 on my other two characters who now both have their exotic emblems and such. Upon turning in your flawless scorecard to the Disciple of Osiris, you're given a fresh one to complete again. You can also spend nine passage coins on the three consumables all over again. Based on this, I decided perhaps winning another nine times without a loss to complete this scorecard would yield me another lot of loot from the chest and I could get the emblem that the game didn't give me due to a glitch. After getting nine wins without a loss, I even got the notification back in orbit saying I've unlocked the lighthouse and that I should go there to collect the best Osiris loot (again). I was almost certain this would work, otherwise why would they give me a new card to perfect? Why would I get a notification again to go get the best Osiris loot? If you can get more keys to get the PoE 35 chest again, surely you could get another perfect scorecard to get the ToO lighthouse chest again? Wrong. You aren't rewarded a single thing for opening that chest again after another perfect scorecard. You're not even given passage coins to make up for the nine you spend on aiding you with getting another scorecard. Literally all for nothing, the Osiris vendor's packs didn't even refresh. Bungie, I just wish you could disclaim this information prior/when the content is released so gamers don't waste their time. Personally I believe getting another nine wins without a loss should give me more loot for such an effort, especially if I can beat 35 PoE again for it's chest loot. On another topic, even the Prison of Elders is flawed. You need to farm RNG based keys in free roam to get chest loot at the end of it each time. Although the must annoying part is Bungie not disclaiming that the PoE lvl35 ship, shader and emblem were only obtainable once per account. You can beat it on all your characters but you only get that lot of loot once. The second time I beat 35 I had those items on me (transferred from my other character) so I thought "oh damn I missed out on the ship and such because I technically have them on this character". I beat the 35 again on this character without these items on me but again did not receive the ship, shader or emblem. I've beaten the lvl35 Prison of Elders four times this week already thinking it was my own fault I didn't get the ship and so on, although Bungie just didn't mention it's only obtainable once. (Four times, once on two characters, twice on my third) Oh and of course the shader, emblem and ship for PoE 35 are considered completion loot, you know, to have something to show off upon beating it so people can know just by looking at you that you've beaten it and also so you have proof of doing so if anyone asks. The stupid part? That "completion" loot isn't given to you upon beating Skolas or returning to the airlock, you need a key from free roam to open the chest to receive these items. Anyone without a key at the time will have nothing to show for beating the lvl35 PoE. Not quite sure who exactly decided that to be a good decision but they clearly weren't thinking properly. OH, and if you get disconnected from Trials of Osiris (because Bungie chooses the worst player's connection to be the host in the game to compensate for their McDonalds wifi internet) it will count as a loss for your scorecard. Also, the consumable that wipes your first loss doesn't wipe your first loss if it was given to you due to disconnection. My team won over forty matches straight before we finally got a perfect scorecard to go to the lighthouse on my second character due to getting unavoidable losses on our scorecards when the host of a game lags us out. So there's just a little rant about some of the many flaws of Destiny, a list that seems to continue growing per additional content. This post is more of a disclaimer for all other guardians - you need a key for the lvl35 PoE completion loot, you can only get that completion loot once, the exotic emblem from a perfect scorecard in ToO will simply not be rewarded to you or sent to your post master if your inventory is full and you cannot get another perfect scorecard to open that chest again to get the exotic emblem you miss out on even though the game implies you can do that. All of these things should've been stated by Bungie at the launch of the DLC. That is all. Continue the grind, guardians.

    • Why the hell would you let people get multiple Osiris chests per week. That's giving the mlg people like tripleWRECK and people from invigorate a huge advantage to get he best guns in the game

            • Don't worry man I didn't get the emblem after my first trials run and I had gone flawless before everyone on my friends list. I had to sit there with my two friends having exotic emblems and I had the skolas one on. Waited a week and got it.

                • A big flaw is that the lighthouse is PvP only, when they should have a chest for PvE flawless raider in addition to the PvP chest so that all have equal opportunity to get there.

                  • Theres plenty of flaws in destiny, you've just gotta deal with them. I know, its bullshit, but sadly there really isn't much you can do about it. It was good of you to make this to warn others, though. I'll make sure to be careful...

                  • This has been posted so many times I've lost count. Make sure your s**t isn't full! Damn, how hard is this to understand? This is 100% your fault. I haven't even done ToO yet and I know about this issue. Also, ToO is a weekly reward system. This was disclosed. Weekly, as in nightfall and weekly heroic. You can't do those twice with the same character, why would you be able to do ToO more than once? I'm sorry if I sound like an ass about this but this is one of countless posts about this stuff. People should know by now. You obviously get on the forum. 3 or 4 of the first 10 threads are about this issue.

                    • Here's another BS flaw. So I'm going 8-2, right? I get Mercy from Vance before I try going for another Trials match. What could possibly go wrong? Even if I do lose, I'll be fine 'cause I have Mercy. Think again. Not only did I lose that match, after that match was over I notice on the bottom left corner that "(I) got a Completed Trials Passage". Then I check my passage. Guess how many losses there are on it? 2. And it's "completed". So why on God's green Earth would the game think 2 losses is 3 and "complete" my bloody passage?

(Mine was full because of all the House of Wolves emblems filling my inventory)[/quote] This happened to me on the first run. I couldn't remember having a full contingent of emblems before the start. On inspection it was full of random rubbish gifted as part of the HoW story missions. Stupid me, I didn't clear out the crap before Lvl 35 PoE, but interestingly enough, that emblem did go to the postmaster.

                      • The 35 loot is only different the first time you open it. The rest of the time it's the same as the 28 32 and 34

                      • Nope. The flaw is when you're winning and get kicked out for no reason and take a loss but still have the mercy buff.
