I'm rank 150 with Zavala, got 2500 tokens and I've had two. The Merciless and the Prometheus Lens. Months ago. I and two of my clan mates have done over a thousand Nightfalls and Heroic strikes in total. One guy has the Coil and Merciless and the other has the P. Lens and the Merciless the same as me. I don't think rank increases your chances to be honest and I don't think High scoring Nightfalls increase your chance enough to warrant taking the time to do them either. One of mine was from the Heroic Arms dealer strike and the other was from a low scoring Prestige Nightfall. We got bored and stopped grinding for them in the end. It got way too tedious. The drop rates are too low and when they said they were buffing them I was sceptical. I don't think they did anything...

    We seriously lost count we did that many. It's all there in my history although I aint counting them. It was too much and we got to really disliking them in the end. I suppose the fact is that it's a numbers game and theoretically the more you do the better your chances but the fact is it's pure RNG and you could buy the game today, do your first Heroic strike and get a catalyst. All I would say is don't go out of your way to get them. Just wait for them to drop because it isn't worth the grind.

  • Agree , I. Remember grinding for the DFA did 60 straight one week no drop, others ran that so many more times

  • They probably did increase the drop rate when they said they did. In fact they probably doubled it from 0.00001% to 0.00002%.

    Haha yeah, you're probably not far off. To be honest I haven't really done nearly as many as I was when they first became available. It seems from what people are saying that things maybe have 'improved' a little.
