Bane of Crota ghost shell (altars of sorrow)

The problem: the altars of sorrow activity drops a ghost shell, the bane of Crota, upon completion of the activity but it's an exceedingly rare drop. The shell is needed to finish the collection, and therefore the seal for the title. The frustration: I feel like putting a rare RNG drop as a req for a seal is a problem that you've already acknowledged and had to deploy a fix to previously (cursebreaker anyone?), So why did you do it again? Now, on top of the rarity of the drop, it's locked behind altar completions, which if you're not the luckiest SOB, you'll have a bunch of random potatoes that are unable to handle the mass influx of nightmares on the final wave, leading to a wipe and no loot. Can't tell you how msny times I've tried to grind this to either get no one, get people who are afk, or just not enough people to handle the boss wave. Add to that, that the activity has been overshadowed by new content and seemingly no one is running it anymore, much less are great at it. This is only going to get worse as we get farther and farther away from the altar's release and it's forgotten about. The fix: significantly up the drop rate of the ghost shell (garuntees drop maybe? Pretty please?). Or make a quest that garuntees a drop once you complete it. Or take it out of the req for the collection and therefore the seal. Please. This is ridiculous, stop making this same mistake, it is quite disheartening. Thank you -Tri

  • Bit late to the game but I've been farming the entire Season of Worthy for this Bane of Crota shell man. Tried doing it on all 3 characters across all subclasses (though I don't see why it should matter but hey I'm at my wits end here) farming almost everyday regardless of the weapon in rotation. Trying my absolute hardest even if there is only one person with me, getting to tier 5 kill the final boss and BAM. No shell. Hell, not even curated weapon. Really making me question my life choices. Please do something about the drop rate of this bane of crota shell or anything @Thrithailos2 mentioned above really. Please.

      Off course they never bothered to reply to this post, I've like flabbergasted about how they're not fixing this, and that there's not more people raising concerns about this, like we have spent days and hours grinding it..to a point, where ppl are abandoning tier V because, they just cant keep repeating a gruelling activity back to back. Fix the drop rates please.For crying out loud 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
