Three of Coins Functionality
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,

Does 3oC apply it's percentage on top of the natural exotic drop rate? Or does it increase the natural exotic drop by 50%? So if the natural drop rate was 10% it would be 15% after it's use. I think that distinction is what might be confusing people considering we don't really know how the modifiers are applied. Also I am curious if the fact that bugs such as this cannot be fixed during server maintenance has something to do with your blizzard integration or if the engine you guys are working with takes this long to implement fixes. Because at this point people are just frustrated with bugs like this coming up. Like the mote glitch for trials, Prometheus lens, and now the 3 of coins. Did QA drop the ball on this? Or did the bug only surface after the item was shipped to live servers? The more information you can give us the less frustrated the community will get. I understand you guys can't give us info until you know more yourselves. But a lot of people invested time and legendary shards into testing and using this item to find out it doesn't function in one of the main activities we need to farm forge weapons so instead of this item making our lives easier it makes it harder because we can;t get the crafting resources we want as fast and we also can't sweeten that deal with that extra potential for an exotic. I love Destiny I really do but frankly I am getting to the point where I am afraid to engage in new content only to find out something about it is bugged and practically waste my time and resources for no reason. Thank you for your time.
