TL;DR I've farmed 156 rolls of Rose over the span of 36 weeks (roughly 9 months excluding the time it was in the vault) and have been -blam!- out of luck on getting a roll that's competitive, no pun intended.
Can the weekly limit for the comp weapons being removed, for the love of PvP that doesn't exist? Forget about the exact roll that I want, I've been farming for a good roll since the day it came out. Gotten a barely decent roll as of recently.
Rose came out for 6 months back at the start of Season of the Seraph with a limit of 3 a week. Then got vaulted, and then reissued this season, with a limit of 7 on in it (yes I wanted it so bad, I got to Ascendant on the first week and farmed the 21 engrams for the week). Another 3 months of this season, only gotten some mediocre or landfill rolls. Love seeing those elemental cap. + vorpal rolls.
I had farmed all 3 rolls every week for the 6 month period and farmed all 7 for the current period. Not everyone is blessed with RNG.
Season of the Seraph and Defiant lasted 12 weeks each. 24*3=72. Season of the Wish has been out for 12 so far. 12*7=84
I have farmed up to 156 rolls of Rose and still haven't gotten my roll, let alone a 4 out of 5 god roll.
I've been at it for 36 weeks. Just over 2 thirds of a year. Purely because, there's a limit on obtaining the weapon which at this point is a participation award.
Keep in mind, that Rose was also unobtainable for 6 months when it was vaulted. Season of the Seraph came out on the 6th of December, 2022. So it's been over a year I've been trying for this weapon and only 156 rolls to show for it and none of them were a 4+/5.
I'm not saying to make it craftable or anything of the sort, just remove the limit. Destiny is about the grind, no question about it. But there's no game that I've ever played has ever put a limit on attempts for something that has RNG tied to it, surprised a pay to win method hasn't been made yet. It's the reward for an awful playlist with gamemodes that truly have no place in a 'competitve' scene. It's not even endgame PvP (Trials) and the adept weapons are farmable. Why can't Rose or any of the other comp weapons get the same treatment?

Edited by Draith: 3/14/2024 4:42:57 AM@Bungie, please let those of us that are unable to get matched into a competitive game, (I can't even get 1 of the 7 required to set the base level) have a quest like the Trials quest that let's use watch and react to 10 games of competitive on Twitch to get a Rose. Or perhaps give us another way to get a lightweight Hand Cannon...

1 ReplyGot hammer forged, accurised, perpetual motion, eye of the storm and a range mw on my first ever drop. That'll do

It must be bad luck on your part, sorry. Ive only done about 3 weeks of comp and picked up a few good rolls. My fave is Explosive Payload/Rapid Hit.

We are the same brother. I wish you the 10/10 godroll man you and me both deserve a good rose. (I think bungie is garekeeping us from the godroll)

1 ReplyIt would make too much sense to let us craft it. Bungie loves wasting their players time sadly... Good luck playing slots for another 6 months :)

RNG, take 🍼🍼🍼

2 RepliesEdited by Obi-Juan: 2/7/2024 2:46:17 PMI don't see why people would be against Rose being craftable if it was tied behind getting a certain placement, streak or something. Make it a whole quest thing. Save people like yourselves getting burnt out. Seems like people against crafting just haven't had loot rng bad enough to agree with it. Like all they know is that they get enjoyment hearing that the non crafted weapon they got, people had a really hard time getting. So they want to maintain that rather than actually empathise with the situation.

1 ReplyI feel this deeply. Bungie could give us 100 rolls per week and for some it just wouldn't matter. I've lost count of how many EC/Vorpal Roses I've pulled. Ffs just let us craft the damn thing. Haven't PvP players suffered enough?

1 ReplyI am lucky in the respect I guess. Got a small bore accurized slide shot explosive + handling MW when it first returned. Last week got a same roll except stability MW. If it was a range MW it would be GR, but I’ll take it. This gun is so good

1 ReplyAt least you are getting drops! Back when seals first came out there was this worthless, even then, Braytech rocket launcher that I spent an entire year running Strange Terrain over and over and over till my controller did not even need me around for it to do what was needed. When it finally dropped a year later I got me seal and deleted the worthless piece of trash before I even got back to orbit. This is also one of two major reasons I simply will not run Raids anymore. Toxicity, since everyone from each of the clans I have been in have come and gone and left me the lone guardian in a no longer fun game, and experience running LFG with angry, drunken guardians and two I suffer this for a weapon that takes many, many runs to get a lucky drop. In other words Bungo's manipulation of weighting on drop rate RNGH suck!

7 RepliesThat’s why I’m 100% with the crafting system. I think there’s some flaws with it, but at least you know you’re going to be able to have the roll you want. I’ve done the same with Rose and Spare and just took what I got which were like 4/5 rolls. Good enough for me.

That's so sad.

1 ReplyI know the pain- I’ve been trying to get snap mulligan and can’t even get 2/5 on the sniper

I finally got one with explosive payload today after I don't know how many attempts. Hope you get a good one soon.

Really disappointing to hear. The stupid RNG grind you describe is one of the reasons I stopped playing Destiny. I thought they would make a good effort to fix it when they released crafting, like have some sort of mechanism so all weapons could be crafted...any light at the end of the RNG tunnel that could equate to the weapon you want after X runs. Not fixing the weapons grind, and removing the old content & gear (with no option for a player to download & play what they want)...they should have listened to the players.

It’s obvious you have been consumed with this issue ! Walk away and do less or just let go . I used to be obsessed in D1 but gradually have lost interest. The raids are a good example of the rng bs ! I gave up on vex ….just accepted it and moved on. Destiny really does suck people into this never ending cycle . Should be a chance to craft it 🤷🏼♂️

Go outside, get some sun, interact with people. You don’t need a god roll anything.

4 RepliesAnd some other guy who plays less than you hit your roll first time.

I started playing comp this season. My second roll was explosive payload. No slide shot but I use Ophidians and it’s a solid roll. RNG can be brutal so best of luck landing that roll.

8 RepliesIf you look at mine, I just got a decent one yesterday. It’s really only a 4/6 at best. I’m looking for Smallbore, Accurised, Slideshot, Explosive, Heavy Grip, and a Range Masterwork. I got Corkscrew, Extended Mag, Slideshot, Vorpal (ew), Heavy Grip, and a Range Masterwork. If I had gotten Explosive, I think that would have been it. At least this was a nice break in the rain considering this was literally my FIRST SLIDESHOT ROLL.
