Hey all,
Throughout the weekend, we’ve been monitoring player feedback concerning the recently added Three of Coins consumable offered by Xûr. We’d like to give clarification on the functionality of this item:
[quote][b]When players use a Three of Coins consumable, this provides a 50% increase to the base chance of being rewarded an Exotic Engram upon activity completion. Using this consumable does not guarantee an Exotic reward upon completing a set number of activities – but rather increased chances upon each activity completion.[/b][/quote]
[b]Note:[/b] We have found that Heroic Strikes do not currently grant higher chances for Exotics when using Three of Coins consumables, compared to Vanguard Strikes. We’re looking to address this with a future Hotfix, expected in early 2018.
We will continue to monitor and forward feedback concerning this feature throughout the holiday season. Keep it coming!
Later this week, we’ll have notes from the development team on additional feedback items that we’re looking to address in the future. Stay tuned.
Cheers,

So its working as intended but Heroic Strikes are not. In theory I should see a better chance at drops participating in other events besides heroic strikes, but from what myself and my clan have seen that is not the case. Granted the majority of the grind did take place in Heroic Strikes but even in there the error is not exotics do not drop, its that they did not receive an increase from normal strikes. I used to get quite a few from normal strikes but haven't gotten one in a heroic since they released. You can say that's bad RNG but even in destiny 1 you were bound to get an exotic after 6 or 7 3oC's used. Something else just seems off about the current state of 3oC. A possible fix for this, just take them out of the game. We did just fine up until this point earning exotics, the earning exotics part isn't the issue for most, it's the duplicates. Remove 3oC and keep Fated Engrams just to help those players not have to suffer exotic after exotic to keep missing a single piece. I'm not gunna backlash at the game without giving some sort of solution, the majority here however will. Hopefully this can get upvoted so they can see constructive feedback
