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.

1 ReplyI hardly get any armor tbh.
-
I have 100+ completions. 3 "But Not Forgotten"s, 2 inFusion Rifles, 4 pieces of armor, and 70-ish class items. The rest were blue engrams.
-
6 RepliesI've gotten multiples of everything. Have the sniper in all 3 burns with rolls I like, fusion in all three with good rolls, and the armour set with rolls I like. Dismantled the rest. Class items do drop like crazy in there though that I can confirm. I think the drop rate is fine, three people in there are completing an offering around every 3 minutes so they are easy and fast to complete. I mean the forge is fun to do, seems like there's a lot of people who just think everything should drop with minimal effort. Don't relate offerings in importance from runes, use the damn things no matter what they are. Use an offering to get an offering, it's a grind but it's actually a fun one.
-
Weapon and armor drops seem to be on the same very low drop rate. Class items drop all the damn time. I lucked out and got the But Not Forgotten on my 3rd attempt. A buddy of mine got his around his 160th attempt.
-
1 Reply[u]Archon Forge loot breakdown:[/u] 3 helmets. 4 class items. 1 weapon.
-
Wait class items actually drop for people? Lucky...
-
I've had like 15 class items, 2 legs, 1 chest and 2 fusion rifles. I want the damn sniper rifle!
-
I have only gotten an ads load of class items no weapons. I've done about 50 rounds of that bs
-
I've gotten one weapon (the fusion), and a lot of armor pieces including: arms, chests, and class items. I really want that sniper tho....
-
Tons of class items and i got 3 snipers and maybe 3 or 4 fusions in about 70/80 offferings combined on all characters. And in Total maybe 6 armor pieces
-
Class items, engrams and 2 pieces of gear, no weapons from 5 perfect offerings runs, I left ps4 because of this same crap, came back and it hasn't change, really RNG in this game is bullshit and rigged.
-
Edited by Wolfishhat8131: 10/3/2016 7:26:01 PMI got a godly Saladin's fusion: Rangefinger, rifled barrel, and either snapshot or Accelerated Coils. My forge sniper is good for raid too: Spray and play/triple tap, hand-laid, speed reload. I also walked away with two of the armor set... and 12 class items.
-
Titan marks everywhere; Forge, Factions, Crucible, you name it and it's a class item.
-
I get a crapton of Titan Marks and engrams. Got the fusion but that's it otherwise.
-
Screw the weapons. I just want more of the armor sets.
-
Tons of class items, got the "but not forgotten" sniper after maybe 20 or so offerings. That's the only weapon drop I've seen though.
-
That place drops weapons? Got nothing but Titan marks, er I mean legendary marks
-
1 ReplyGot quite a few class items (9-10) and 1 sniper (amazing roll, on my hunter if you want to see.) and one fusion rifle. I personally think that the drop rates are decent (Considering I've done about 30 offerings) and don't need much changing. I don't want to see hundreds running around with god roll But Not Forgottens, but at the same time i'm not everyone and RNG may be different for you.
-
they need to add more weapons than two
-
Armor. No weapons. What r they like?
-
43 completions, no weapons. That is a fairly good sample size.
-
50+ rounds of it no weapons at all. Just class items once in a great while. Which 80% Of the time are lower then what I have equipped
-
Edited by seeweedbuscut: 10/3/2016 6:45:02 PMI get nothing, and if i do get lucky and get a weapon, it's a dupe of the one i've already got. e.g: After tons of time in the forge, no armour (what i want), eventually the sniper drops, my 3rd one. I dismantled it out of spite, as it was pretty similar to my current one, hidden hand and snapshot. I had to infuse my current one, and now i regret dismantling the later drop.
-
20 class items 1pr of boots 3 snipers 1 fusion rifle
-
Edited by senpai franky: 10/3/2016 6:37:06 PMI've gotten more class items but that's because there are more to be had. Conversely, I've also gotten 2 of each weapon and the full armor set for my main.
-
Ive done it atound 60-70 times and got 1 helm,a fusion and tons of class items.
