I grinded one of the strike - specific rewards recently (Psion Solar Flayer's Cape.) I got mine from the lvl 36 version of that Dust Palace Strike. They say you can get those rewards from doing the lvl 20 version but tbh you're better off doing it in a playlist... specifically the lvl 36. The heroic strikes do NOT give you a better chance at the drop and while I can't be sure I'm almost positive the Exotic version doesn't either. The purpose of doing the playlist (even though you have to wait for your strike to come up) is that you get the vanguard multistrike bonus for increased legendary drops. Don't leave the playlist and enter repeatedly to get the right strike either, it defeats the purpose of the playlist bonus and you might as well just do the lowest lvl version of the strike if you don't do the playlist.

  • Well... I was pretty much like minded right up until I started glancing at the results above: a ton of people seem to have acquired it from selecting the story mission in the Dreadnaught. Common sense would dictate the drop rate there would be lower. But then again, you can probably do 8 solid runs from the story mission before you can finish two random runs in a strike playlist!!! So yeah... Long story short, I still don't have that helmet!!!

  • Yeah it may work better for some people to do the lower lvl strike. I only suggest otherwise because I did... uncountable runs of lvl 20 dust strike and got nothing. Then I did a few lvl 36's and BAM! flayer's cape lol. Either way good luck, I feel your pain sir.

  • I hear you. And I'm closing in fast on that "uncountable" mark myself... So I'll probably going to take a mixed approach: a few basic strikes a day with a few Heroics as well. Just to be sure! :P Anyway, thanks for the input! Much appreciated!
