So Frustrated with Loot system - What are the odds of 88 exotic armor engrams and ZERO celestial nighthawks?

32 iron banner engrams, did not get 2 of the 5 armor pieces. 88 exotic armor engrams, ZERO celestial nighthawks Raiden Flux x12 Lucky Raspberry x7 Dragon’s Shadow x8 Stomp-EE5 Boots x7 Orifice Rig x8 Lucky Pants x8 Mechanic’s Tricksleevers x9 Young Amankhara’s Spine x9 Foe Tracer x10 Knucklehead Radar x10 Celestial Nighthawk -0- There are 11 exotic hunter armor pieces. Exotic Engrams are supposedly random. 88 Exotic Engrams with Hunter Armor opened. 0 Celestial Nighthawks. Each armor Engram has a 1 in 11 chance of being a Celestial Nighthawk head piece. What is the probability of 88 random engrams never resulting in a Celestial Nighthawk? Given that Activision filed a patent for manipulating players to engage in micro-transactions in order to acquire specific gear, i.e. grouping them with certain people etc., I am starting to highly doubt the integrity of the explanation that the loot system is random. It feels a lot more like a way to manipulate players into playing longer, thus spending more money. The thing is, I really like this game, and I would play anyways, so good grief come on Bungie, at this point, getting an Exotic Engram is insulting and frustrating rather than a reward.

  • Honest question: how do you know it is an armor engram vs a weapon engram? I didn't think there was a difference anymore and any engram can give weapon or armor.
