Destiny Player Support recently launched an investigation into the drop rate of "Husk of the Pit" due to a noticeable increase in player reports that it was not dropping. We learned that there is in fact a bug that's preventing the Husk from dropping during the "Fist of Crota" mission. Please read Destiny Player Support's [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/help/article/13160]official help article[/url] for more information on this subject.
Thank you for using the #help forum to bring our attention to this issue. If you have any addition questions post them here.

16 RepliesWish this was recognized before I reached 1500 Blade of Crota kills, but better late than never. It is a little concerning that the problem wasn't recognized sooner and that so many users, including moderators and mentors, stated that it still drops and that we needed to just keep trying. While they may not have deliberately lied, the fact that they provided essentially inaccurate information based on their own assumptions as opposed to actual game experience will adversely effect the credibility of moderators/mentors, and it rightfully should - if we hadn't continued to question the 'confirmations' from the mods/mentors, this bug would have remained undiscovered. I know I have lost a lot of trust in them and will no longer consider their comments to be any different than those of other users. Users claiming recent drops of the Husk is another issue and I seriously hope that it is a case of the bug only affecting certain users or involving specific conditions that allowed it to continue to drop for some. The alternative - the Destiny community includes a lot of dishonest players who provided misinformation that (1) encouraged users to waste time on a fruitless endeavor and (2) interfered with the identification and recognition of the bug. Now I'm done venting - let us see what Bungie is able to do about this problem.
