Master and Legend LS are a great addition to the game, allowing us to hunt down a specific exotic armor piece in a narrower loot pool.
Having said that, I want to share my experience with master lost sectors.
- attrition modifier: I am forced to use certain exotics/loadouts because the enemies do not spawn enough wells of light. Alternatively I have to wait a minute for my health to regen or die to get my health back.
- exotic drop rate: In my experience the exotic drop was about 25/30%, which is too low considering you need an average of 7-10 minutes to complete a run (assuming you are high enough power). On legend difficulty it takes 2/3 minutes and the drop rate is about 15%.
- champions “synergy”: This was experienced mainly on “Exodus Garden 2a” where there are a lot of enemies (+attrition) and the barrier servitor gives immunity to the overload captain. Most of the times you have to wait until they move away from each other.
In conclusion, I would rather farm any LS on legend difficulty because they are way faster and fun, while still being rewarding and challenging.
I have 2 quick suggestions for master LS: buff the drop rate or rework the attrition modifier.
I would like to hear your opinion on this!!
TL;DR - Master LS are tedious mainly because of attrition. Legend LS are almost as rewarding while still being fun.

If you don’t move too far into the lost sector, you can kill the overload champion before the servitor spawns.
