Rasputin Key Fragments Drop Rate - Possibly broken

Bungie needs to be a little better job at this drop rate. this is from their site : [quote]Decrypted Cache Key A Decrypted Cache Key is needed to open the loot chest from the final boss of Escalation Protocol. After completing the Warmind campaign, players will begin receiving Rasputin Key Fragments from the following sources: Heroic Adventures, Heroic Strikes, Nightfall Strikes, and the Raid or Raid Lairs. Once per week, players can turn in their collected Rasputin Key Fragments to receive an Encrypted Cache Key. Players must complete Escalation Protocol levels to turn the Encrypted Cache Key into a Decrypted Cache Key. [/quote] I've been grinding over 2.5 hours trying to get 5. (P.S. I had two from 5 heroic strikes) I only got 4 after playing 5 heroic adventures and 3 heroic strikes. If it's required that we turn in 7 fragments every week before we get rewards from Escalation Protocol, the drop rate needs to be more guaranteed. I did enough work to get 8 in these 2.5 hours, but only got 5.

Bungie has done more than enough dumbing down of Destiny 2 to have them dumb the game even more. Because everything would be to the point where you're simply given what you want for doing the least amount of work possible. And so would only serve to make the game so simplistic that there would literally be no point in playing Destiny 2. Because honestly, what's the point in continuing to play a game if you're simply going to have the rewards handed out to you without having to do much of anything and/or if you're only able to breeze through and have everything just automatically drop for you without? After all, there are no perk rolls. There are no variations in armor/weapons in terms of their boosts/perks/performance (except Exotic armor pieces and even they are static rolls). Meaning once you've gotten the weapons/armor pieces there's no reason to go back and do it again as you've already gotten what you wanted/needed. At which point your only option is to keep doing the same things over and over and get nothing in return. Or move on to a different game where there's actually a reason, point, purpose and/or challenge to playing.

        I have one key and I think 5 more fragments all I’ve been doing 2 heroics and a nightfall then grinding out 50 resonate stems everyday ... takes about 4-5 hours only because ppl always leave the strikes but I’m getting them fairly easy and I don’t even want them

      • Key word here is RNG. Bungie doesn't deal with guarantees. LOL! Sorry to disappoint you.
