Best way to get it is to pop 3oCs to get exotic engrams. If you have the coins to spare, get primary legacy engrams. Those are coded to give you weapons that you don't have yet, so that's a good idea, but expensive.

    3oCs headache for me. Last 35 gave me only rare stuff. Spent 49 coins on rare stuff. I'm better off outright buying from Xur with my luck :( Btw yes, used 1 at a time

  • I know this sounds like a dumb question, but are you sure you were killing ultras, and with a 15-30 min time in between? Ultras are Taken Champions, Strike Bosses, Echos of Oryx, raid bosses etc. Alot of people misunderstand how and when to actually use them correctly. The best way is to just do strikes and pop one when you start or get to the boss. RNG Hates me and I get one every 3-4 three of coins. But they're far less effective if used immediately after one another.

  • That may be the problem. If you want to try them again then make sure you have a good time between uses. They changed them after the first week because people were using them to farm exotics. They would get to an ultra, kill the ultra and themselves at the same time with a rocket, and repeat getting them to drop 2-3 in 10 mins. So they changed it to where they would barely work if there wasn't a decent time in between uses. They've never said what that time is but I try to wait at least 20 mins. They are supposed to stack tho, as in if one doesn't drop on this one, your chances are even better on the next. With time break. It may really be messed up for u somehow but even if it really is bungie would ask for video proof that you used #x without one dropping. They always ask for proof.

  • Got it, il use 1 on a strike boss then maybe play a round of crucible to stretch some time before going back to another strike. Fingers crossed

    They dont always go away. A 'IX' in a white triangle symbol, says Exotic Particles, will be under your lvl and grimoire and wont go away until you kill an ultra. So make sure its gone, otherwise if you pop another before that your wasting them. The "IX" will not go away even when logging out, changing characters whatever. Also some strikes are weird, my Psion one is jacked where it wont take the "IX", and others with multiple bosses are weird. Like shield brothers, it may take it when you kill the first one. While strikes are a good time to use them, ultras are also the Big Taken Champions, Big mission Bosses like the Gatelord, House of Winter Kell, 'Troll Patrol' Archon, boss patrol mission on earth. And that way you know when you've had good time between and usually only drop the exotic after so you don't get over excited or something. Some people swear using multiple 3oC at a time works but it never has me, I think they're just wasting them because bungie has never said it would.
