People in this community really don't grasp the concept of 'Chances'. It might happen, and it might not happen. Even if the chances are altered. It will still remain random. And is completely up to your luck.

    "Heavy ammo drops more often and contains more ammo in each drop" Where are you getting this "chance" variable from? It would say heavy ammo has a chance to drop more often, not that it will.

  • [quote]"Heavy ammo drops more often and contains more ammo in each drop" Where are you getting this "chance" variable from?[/quote] Heavy ammo drops more often. ...ammo drops more often. ...drops more often. ...more often. ...often. Often is not a guarantee. Without a guarantee you are left to... Dare I say... ...Chance. [spoiler]An angel didn't get their wings because of your post btw[/spoiler]

  • Except often is a guarantee. Synonyms: frequently, many times, repeatedly, regularly, routinely, etc. If you go an entire strike without seeing a heavy pack drop then it did not drop [i]often.[/i]

Often is relative.[/i] It's a matter of probability. Over time, heavy ammo will likely drop more often with Ruin Wings equipped than not having them equipped. That's all the exotic does.

  • Yeah I get that... It's hard to say how much I would have gotten not wearing them, but it seems like a bust right now.
