Edit #3: Squeezing this in at the top here, if you have your number of Archon's Forge victories (in your record book), please post it here along with the number of weapons you've gotten from the Forge. I need the data.
The only thing I seem to get from Archon's Forge is armor (this happened literally only once), engrams, and class items (just about every other time). I had a group earlier today, and one person in my fireteam got a "But Not Forgotten" Sniper.
Now, I got nothing (except presumably a class item, or an Engram). The other person in the fireteam got nothing. The other three people in the Forge got nothing.
What gives?
We did two Perfected SIVA Offerings in a row, maybe even three, but I got nothing but crappy little friendship bracelets (facetious term for Warlock Bonds is facetious) and a pair of gloves.
The poll above should help me gather data that I (and maybe Bungie, if they decide to rebalance this) need. Please, leave a reply. Feel free to tell me what dropped for you as well. I won't get too salty, I promise.
Edit #1: Someone down below (pablogordon, I followed your suggestion, I'm giving you credit now) said to put this in, basically a PSA to all of you running with a fireteam.
[quote]1st) WALK, do not run/sprint/sparrow the hallway from the dais. You will almost always be the only one in the lobby if you go in there fast.
2nd) If you do no damage to the boss, you will not get any rewards. If you die, and the boss dies before you can get any damage in, you get nothing.
3rd) on the common and rare offerings, please for the lobby let the boss out of the clamshell so everyone can get loot....I see so many people working on adds and the boss is dead before the clamshell finishes opening on the two lower tier offerings.[/quote]
Now, according to Splicer Warden, you can run and jump into the forge, just don't sparrow in there. Otherwise there won't be any other players in the forge. Personally, I have made this mistake before, and it kind of explains a lot... The rest is self-explanatory. Maybe this can help you all.
Edit #2: I'm also seeing a few posts that some people were unaware that Archon's Forge drops weapons. This is a problem that needs to be solved.
Edit #4: Another question, has anyone acquired anything other than a special weapon? Or are they just [i]that rare?[/i]
Edit #5: I was unaware of the fact that the primaries that I thought the forge dropped came from Iron Banner. Sorry for the mix-up. Original question still stands.
Edit #6: Okay, so apparently you can get rewards without doing damage to the boss, so disregard a part of edit 1.

2 RepliesEdited by Aramintai: 10/16/2016 1:12:42 PM990 completions later I still can't get Warlock Hadron Gale chest to drop. EDIT: Ok, on my 1056th Forge completion that chest finally dropped. Fml, RNG in this game is atrocious.
-
As far as I know the one who initiates the offering has a higher chance of getting a drop than everyone else. I've probably done well over 120 or 130 and I've gotten loads of class items, the sniper 3 times, the fusion once, 2 chest pieces, and 2 gauntlets. (Warlock if that matters)
-
1 ReplyYou can either get the but not forgotten sniper or the saladin's vigil fusion rifle. Those are the only legendary gun drops.
-
i have over 150 completions, have gotten 3 but not forgotten, 1 fusion and more damn class items than i could ever need. im fine with how infrequently the weapons drop, just annoyed the only drop at 365
-
I have probably done the Forge about 80 times, I received many armor and Class items. I have received saladins vigil twice out of all those completions.
-
1 Reply120 victories. Gotten the fusion rifle 5 or 6 times and the sniper once. About 80 class items lol. Did get the full set of stellar impact armor but liked my iron banner gear better. Weapon drops seem to be pretty rare. my buddy pulled a few from green siva offerings so maybe perfected just increase your chances of getting better loot. Doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it
-
You can get rewards for not damaging the boss. Why don't you change it? Have you even done the forge?
-
I have a really high blue engram rate in the forge.
-
I've done at least 50 completions and at least 5 were perfected...nothing but an overabundance of class items. I only go to the forge for the weekly shiro bounties and I dont even know if ill do that next week. Bounties that depend on rng and others being there arent really my cup of tea.
-
Class items mostly. A few armors, but no guns.
-
Almost have a full set of dream-eater armour for hunter, I'm so hyped, it looks freakin amazing
-
1 ReplyJust an update, did 2 perfected runs, got 2 snipers.
-
Done quite a few; hard to say exactly but probably 50. Not a single weapon drop and probably 3 armour drops lol
-
Edited by DukeDig01: 10/6/2016 12:13:47 AMRIP me and the rest of the 2 percent who have not done Archon's forge
-
I have yet to see anyone at the forge.

Edited by Dark Fenix 187: 10/5/2016 7:24:49 PM18 completions with 4 cloaks and 1 piece of armor I think chest or boots. edit: just checked my vault 3 frumious cloaks, 1 dream eater cloak and a set of dream eater boots. Looking for that sniper.
-
About 80 runs, 2 fusions, 3 snipers, and about 25-35 cloaks. I got a cloak every 1-2 runs for about 15 runs last night.
-
You can get rewards if you don't damage the boss, Mtashed posted a video in which he was AFK and got a But Not Forgotten.
-
I thought it only dropped class items.
-
Thought it was only dropping Warlock bonds ... even on my Titan
-
Never got a weapon
-
1 ReplyI'm having trouble finding anyone in Archons Forge
-
I'm convinced that AF only drops cloaks. If a weapon dropped at this point I'd still go to my cloak section ready to dismantle another cloak.
-
102 completions. Over 60 class items, Hunter Helmet, Hunter Guantlets, Warlock Chest Piece, no guns.
-
over 60 rounds, 2 fusions. one god roll right on me.
-
30+ completions no weapon...
