Can the cosmetic items for Dreaming City drop a little more frequently?
I haven't seen many posts (other than my own) about Dreaming City Cosmetic Items not dropping frequent enough. I really want to get that seal down (mostly so I can give more money to this company for that pin) and title, but I feel like I'm never going to get the Ghost Shell, "Starlight Shell", and the Sparrow, "Silver Tercel", in time.
Please Bungie, even if it just becomes more frequent right before the Bungie Reward runs out. Please help a guy out.

Don't worry guys!!! They extended the deadline for purchasing the seal pins from the Bungie store!!!!!!!!!!! Goddamn, i've done DC shiz every week since launch and no ghost and no ship, I was surprised I got the sparrow back in January. Could've been Cursebreaker at the earliest possible moment but NOPE. Bungie have said NOTHING about increasing the drop rates, which are insanely low for a non-farmable activity. It's honestly one of the biggest factors in my severely decreased play time. I can't even be bothered to finish getting the Mountaintop before my 1650 glory points disappear when the next season starts, because of annoying RNG like this.

I agree, it's becoming very disapointing spending so much time over and over in the same activities and not have these drop. Bungie needs to make some more changes or they will start having more financial losses. They have def. made some great changes. The weapon selections haven't been better. The random rolls and a few other changes brought me back after an eight month break.

You haven't seen many posts regarding RNG on the mentioned items? This guy for real?

Or make them buyable items for 999 barion bough.

I've been wondering if they have a fairly common flaw in their rng engine. Some coders use a simple "give me a number between 1 and 100" scheme, then just divide that up by rounding since computers will spit something out with decimals. For example, to get 57, any result from 56.5000 to 57.4999 gives that answer. The problem comes at the ends. To get 1, the computer will only get that for 1.0000 to 1.4999, since 0.5000 is outside the specified range. This means that 1 only occurs 1 in 200 rolls, rather than 1 in 100 like you'd expect. So if the cosmetics are set for a 1% drop rate, that may only be a 1 in 200 chance.

1 ReplyAfter a certain length of time it's no longer them, it's us. Seriously, if they won't change, and they haven't shown any indication they are, we can either keep complaining and playing or change and move on. I want them to just make things a bit more reasonable with RNG too, that's my biggest complaint right now. But they just don't seem to want to budge. I'm just starting to feel like a fool for expecting anything more than another week of disappointment.

2 RepliesNot just the cosmetics, but the lore book for the Dreaming City has really bad RNG.
-
2 RepliesI've become burnt out chasing them. It's just frustrating and boring now.

5 RepliesShattered thrones need unlock every week instead 3 week

The sparrow i got from the raid so I wonder if the shop amd shell also drops from there 2.
-
bad luck protection is an issue in a lot of areas atm - i think it's the biggest issue in the game (for me at least) a lot of other people have a lot of other complaints, but this is the main one for me - i'm quite happy with the rest of the game

No. - Bungie

3 RepliesIn amswer to your question... no, no they cant... there is a pre-determined percentage chance for designated drop activities. The drop is completely (well, as random as scripted rng can be) rng based. I know you know this but my response is the obilgatory unhelpful response. You are welcome.

1 ReplyWhere do they drop. I haven’t gotten the ship and I’ve played so much dreaming city content for so long that the drop rate must be absolutely broken if it can drop from any DC activities.
-
Many people feel your pain. I have been waiting on the ghost shell for quite some time now. It is frustrating, but shattered throne this week on top of Ascendant challenge, maybe we can get lucky.
-
3 RepliesI just.....need......that ghost shell ;-;
-
Nobody should have Cursebreaker anyway, the curse is still going. It makes no sense.
-
Same here man I can’t seem to get the sparrow, ghost or ship and I do what I’m able every week.
-
2 RepliesI would add the lore book to this list.
-
10 RepliesAll I need is the ship... best method of getting is?
-
There’s no doubt in my mind that these cosmetics will drop for everyone before the deadline. Cash is king
-
3 RepliesOnce you put the game down you realize how time you have wasted on this game. It's obvious they aren't listening. The grind is way more important than keeping a majority of fan base happy.
-
I've run shattered throne every time it was available and still don't have the ship
-
I hear ya. Still needing the ghost

Edited by Fishyb: 2/16/2019 11:16:27 AMThis must be broken on purpose as the hours people are putting into this title is beyond a joke.

I dont understand the obsession with cosmetics and tittles. Fellas bungie clearly has it set in a manner to keep the worthless grind going. Play to have fun and stop chasing crap and if you are not having fun play something else.
