Cosmo: Why does Lighthouse give 310+ primary and Oryx does not?
Dear Cosmo (or anyone from Bungie) I understand that going flawless can be hard, but why does it guarantee a 310+ primary and beating Oryx on hard doesn't? Some people are even getting 310+ exotic primaries out of the silver ToO bounty! What gives?
EDIT: READ---> I just wanted to address some replies I've been seeing and reiterate what my point was. I'm not salty at flawless players, I just don't understand why the flawless primary drop is guaranteed and the Oryx primary drop is not? There are only 3 ways to get a 310+ primary (flawless, ToO bounty, Oryx HM). I just got my first 310+ primary on my 10th Oryx Hard Mode kill, which was 3 weeks in the making. Below are things I am perfectly aware of to keep the duplicate replies to a minimum;
-I'm not saying Oryx is harder than Trials or vise versa
-I'm not saying Trials loot drops are excessive or aren't also broken
-I know that Oryx can drop 310+ primaries
-I understand RNG

3 RepliesA friend and myself have cleared Hard Oryx at least 15+ times and between the two of us 0 Harrowed Helms and 0 Primaries. It really is forever 29 all over again.

Different things for different people?

2 RepliesEdited by whiteLI0N: 11/16/2015 1:53:41 AMYou can only repeat oryx hard 3 times per week max. Once per character. You can repeat trials as many times as you want while it's up. Trials only requires 3 people. Oryx kind of requires 6 people. Seems like the PvE players get the shaft, again.

Bungie have -blam!-ed up. That carrot on a stick reward system was great when said rewards were worth it. Now the only thing they are good for are to make the activity you did to get them slightly easier in the future. Nightfalls year 1 were better which rewarded smart play and not chain revives just to survive in huge boss areas with -blam!- all cover. They had to lift the Nightfall modifier because most would truly struggle with the new final room designs of year 2 strikes. Trials is also worse I'm really struggling to find reasons to play

4 RepliesOryx hardmode gives you both hard and normal drops if you haven't already run normal that week, are you new?
-
Because pvpers complained all last year and they got their way
-
Because some how bungie thought it would a good idea to extend play time for the raid on hard to drop nothing! Like wtf
-
2 RepliesBecause HM is easy and every streamer carries like 20 people though it every day.

Because pvp players bitch far more than pve players

7 RepliesEdited by Raza582: 11/16/2015 1:40:06 AMUm killing Oryx on Hard guarantees a hard raid drop, Deej posted that in the weekly update a few weeks back. Totems, Warpriest, Golgoroth and Daughters Of Oryx do not guarantee a hard raid drop. Oryx guarantees you a hard raid drop, it can be anything from the raid, its not exlusively primaries, however they are supposed to have a higher drop chance since Oryx is the only place that will drop the primaries.. Even though RNG is ... well RNG. A more relevant question in my eyes would be why does the endgame PVP content drop 320 exotics, yet endgame PVE only drops 310 exotics?

4 RepliesI literally get a 310+ raid primary every kings fall trials has given me shit even the lighthouse rewards are not very good
-
3 RepliesBecause trials generally is about 30000% harder than oryx
-
8 RepliesNot 310+ just 310. And 310 is very bad anyways.
-
Hard oryx does you dingus

Getting to the lighthouse is way harder than killing Oryx

1 ReplyDismantle mines yes

Guaranteed is the key word here. Oryx can drop nothing but shards, yet the lighthouse guarantees a 310+ primary.
-
Life is unfair, such salt such salt.
-
Oryx HARD MODE only drops 310+. If you get a normal drop also it is possible for a 310 and below. But that's still not a hard mode drop
-
Oryx hard does drop 310+ items. Ive had multiple primary weapons drop above 310 from beating him on hard
