So I went a head and gave ruin wings a test, I used the level 26 ROC strike playlist for the test.
I did 25 strikes with ruin wings equipped and then 25 strikes without ruin wings. Believe it or not, I got more heavy ammo drops without ruin wings, then I did with ruin wings equipped.
I wrote down how many heavy ammo drops I got per strike and what strike I was doing. Image below

A lot of people are having the same issue as well. I stream destiny on twitch for about 3-6 hours everyday and I hear many complaints on how ruing wings are not doing what they should be doing.
For a gear to be exotic and not work as it should its pretty sad. I think ruin wings can be an amazing item if they were buffed so, it really drop heavy ammo more often.
I mean its pretty frustrating to do two full strikes and not even have a single heavy ammo drop while having ruin wings equipped.
please bungie take the time to fix this one.

*EDIT 1*
Im reading some of the feedback and some of you guys are saying that it should not give you more heavy ammo drops, just more when you pick it up. But the Ruins wings perk says; "Heavy ammo drops more often, and contains more ammo in each drop"
(HEAVY AMMO DROPS MORE OFTEN) which means you should see more purple ammo frequently, which where the problem seems to be. Also yes my ruin wings are fully upgraded.
And what seems to be happening with me is that I would go dry sometime for a while, which should not happen if heavy ammo dropped more often
and boom i see 4-5 packs at once. when only two packs fill me up...

I main a sword but the app wont show me kills, please fix!
-
Sometimes I get ~five Heavy drops at once, sometimes it feels like it doesn't give anything. Wish they could fix the inconsistency.
-
my main weapon is the bolt caster but the forms glitched and won't count swords kills :(

Really mine gives me a crap ton durring raid patrol and strikes

These are still broken after all this time... new 310 ones dont work for shit!
-
Bungie is fixing it, just be patient and wait for Destiny 2. If you want Bungievision to fix something quickly, it has to be a major exploit that [b]helps[/b] the players.

Well, actually, today, after playing 8,5 hours using Ruin Wings and the sword I can tell they work for sure. There was a big difference when using different armor. Try using it at the court and see for yourself
-
Did the heavy ammo glitch and I got tons of Ghorn shots
-
You don't necessarily get more heavy to drop. More importantly, you get more heavy per drop. I can definitely see a significant difference. I think they're awesome.!!
-
Change sometimes havy weapons or equipment with will help Somehow rocket gets rare ammo
-
My wife will go for hours with almost no heavy ammo drops. She and I tested this as well and found out that she CONSISTENTLY gets more ammo during pve activities without her ruin wings. Mine seem to be working fine, but have the "Famine, no ammo for days.... JK I DROP ALL AT ONCE!!!!" problem. They should make it much more consistent and much better.
-
I thought I was going insane when I equipped them and only get 3 packs a mission... BUMP
-
I get 4 to 7 rockets a pack, I can't complain
-
As long as i can get 6 rockets from one pickup i dont really care..
-
Bump, it's useless the way it is now.

Even though you did 25 tests with each, and i applaud you for that. A small possibility exists that you were just unlucky on most runs with them equipped. Small and unlikely but still possible. When i use them on my titan i definitely notice a difference. Being that I've never tested them i can't say how much though. You could be right.

Hey but did you pick the heavys up?? Because a lot of time with the wings on the ammo box fills you with like 6 rockets. Without them it would only be like 1-2
