To me they seem broken. Whenever I'm on any of the planet's and doing public events or lost sectors or whatever the chests consistently drop nothing. It doesn't matter what the chest is from. Lost sector chests drop nothing regularly. 3 out of 5 of the Cayde6 chests always drop nothing(for me at least). And the heroic pub event chests as well consistently drop nothing. No glimmer, tokens, or engrams. So what the he'll is going on? Are they working as intended or are they broken? Is anyone else having issues with them?
EDIT: Another thing I noticed about the chests is If the chest is going to give nothing and you mele the chest it will take your mele charge and if it's going to drop something it won't. This is just something I noticed but needs further testing to see if this is completely true.

I at the very least get tokens... I have never gotten nothing... BUT I did notice that you have to stand in front of the chest for a minute before the loot actually is given to you so if you run away real fast you're not going to get anything have you tried standing there for a second after you open it?
