When Xur arrived in the Tower early Friday morning, I went ahead and bought 10 Helmet Engrams, 1 Legacy Engram, and the Warlock Gauntlets. Also bought around 50 Three of Coins.
5 of those 10 Engrams turned into the Emphyrean Bellicose. Later that day, after reading up on Kotaku and watching YouTube videos, I went out to try out the Three of Coins and bag me some sweet loot.
After half a day of grinding, I ended up with 3 Primary Engrams, 3 Special Engrams, and 2 Gauntlet Engrams.
Those turned into 3 Hawkmoon, 2Telesto & 1 Hereafter, and No Backup Plans & Ruin Wings.
Quite a long while ago the issue where you received the exact same piece of Exotic Gear from several Engrams was supposed to be fixed, but this bug has once again risen to turn the endless hours of work into Exotic Shards and/or Infusing.
I'm not looking for a specific piece of gear, I just want to not get the exact same item 2-5 times in a row within 3 seconds of each other.

Don't feel bad... Zur had Year 2 helmet for Titan, year 2 helmet for Hunter, and Year 2 Helmet for a Warlock last weekend, and two engrams. Little did I know that the engrams were Year 1... WHO'D OF THUNK.... what a complete waste of 31 strange coins....
