Fallen not dropping Compound Ether for Black Armory sniper frame
[b]Edit:[/b] Bungie confirmed in the [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/47602]1/31/18 TWAB[/url] that this bug is known as part of 2.1.4. It is also known that the Sniper frame in question can potentially disappear from your inventory after logging out.
---
Fallen are not dropping any Compound Ether to progress the Black Armory basic sniper rifle frame. Specifically, this is the frame you get as a drop from Ada-1 after unlocking the Gofannon forge on Nessus.
From reading some guides online, when you're on this step of the frame, any Fallen should drop Compound Ether on any kill, anywhere. It's also supposed to drop fairly often (more than half the time). I've tried killing Fallen on both EDZ and on Nessus, with headshots, with a Black Armory sniper rifle, etc etc, with zero Compound Ether dropped. After asking around on a couple Discords this definitely seems wrong.

I got the core of the basic sniper rifle but not one ether dropping from fallen Add me to this list please

Its definitely a bug. My friend and my alternate toon is having the same issue.

Just hopped in on my third character to unlock forges and can confirm this is bug is still happening. Hopefully this will be fixed in tomorrow's reset.
-
I'm having the same issue :( this is stupid! we better not lost out on our tatara gaze. imma be liviiiddd
-
Yeah I am also having this issue (3 Feb 2019) and honestly very disappointed. After spending almost 30 min of grinding fallen for the ether and not getting a single drop, I decided to try and abandon the quest and see if it did anything. Nope. Now I lost the quest, cannot reacquire it, and cant move forward. This sucks. please fix it :(
-
Yup. Still not working for me. I have the core but not the ether... Can't gather any.
-
I also have this problem 2/3/2019
-
Same exact issue here. Husband and I are trying to play and this is a huge disappointment and discouragement. We were excited about unlocking this forge.

same here 2/3/2019 pc

This is very Annoying. I paid 35$ for this and it doesn’t even work properly. I have loved this game for awhile and it’s annoying when I finally decide to put money into it again this happens. Still not working as of 2/4/19 12:39 est
-
yeah same here, i got it on my first character but not on my second
-
2 RepliesJust got the annual pass 2 days ago good to know i paid 35 dollars for the annual pass, only to actually get a game breaking glitch that makes it impossible to progress
-
Same here
-
Same problem and I’m not even surprised. Bet it takes weeks to fix
-
Could it be you have to collect parts before getting the cache?
-
Feb 4. Asia. no drops. sniper frame disappeared from inventory. please fix asap. disappointing weekend. :(
-
same here very disappointing bungie, very disappointing
-
2 RepliesI cancelled the Mission. Went back to Ada-1 and got it again. It changed to get the stuff from the Vex
-
Same. I thought I was doing something wrong, but it seems it's bug.
-
Feb 2nd The compound ether is still not dropping are all the Devs playing Anthem or something?
-
I've got the same problem with the basic sniper rifle frame
-
Got it here too
-
Same on PC
-
Same issue with me. I had the Bow frame from the Izanami forge. Vex wouldn't drop the stuff on Wednesday. Got off and came back today on FEB 4th and the frame is gone. forge is there but that's it. Bungie, it would be cool if you could help me out with this issue.

Same situation here. I'm waiting for my buddy to catch up, and I have been watching his screen -- after having trouble getting the drops yesterday, tonight the Sniper frame is gone for him too. Gofannon is unlocked, of course (he can even buy the hand cannon frame), but no sniper frame anymore, and no means to get it. Actually, he's running around killing Fallen looking for Stolen Black Armory Gear to see if the quest can even be tried again from the beginning. Don't know exactly what would happen after going through that ridiculously long and mostly boring grind just to get to the point where you can open the forge (in his case, AGAIN), and I definitely would not want to do the grind a SECOND time just to find my time wasted again. So he's grinding other stuff instead. Yeah he's mad about it, but we like this game enough to forgive. That said... Bungie, are we seriously fixing a problem by simple deletion? Like if/then statements don't exist? If the forge is unlocked, and they don't have Tatara, then OBVIOUSLY they are caught up in this widespread bug. Give them a frame ready to hit the forge. It's not like the stupid collection steps in between were any big deal anyway. But if your solution ends up being a reset of affected players that puts them before the quest step where the forge is opened, then... well... then even a positive guy like me will start being negative. Please fix it, and fix it right.
