Perhaps you shouldn't feed the machine by grinding for marginal improvements and spend that time doing something you enjoy. I remember a time where I farmed incessantly. Doing an activity that I could not stand for months, just to try and get -blam!- weapon roll instead of just using the 4/5 I already had. It almost drove me to the brink of my sanity. One day, I got a duplicate 4/5 roll. Down to the exact same 2nd column perks.Told myself that was the last straw, and promised myself I will never grind like that again. Which I have kept that promise. I enjoy the game alot more now and do so with 10x less frustration. Fact of the matter is that they will never skew drops in the players favor. As that would result in less time farming. Which translates to less engagement for them to show off to the suits. It sucks, but it is what it is. Only thing that will make the grind worth it is if everyone stopped doing it. But that won't happen.

Do I need to complete Dual Destiny one time before exotic class items drop from Overthrow chests?

The drop rate now is ridiculous… before the change you could get the exotic class item drop in 18-20min with very efficient runs… and a bit of luck of course. But now… it takes so much time… even with speed runs thought all chests and overthrow activities it feels so painfully long. I did 2 full overthrow completions (opening also all random world chests) and still no drop… WTF So I run it for the 3rd time the entire overthrow activity and opening all other chests too… and still no drop… And when I was about to quit… I did open one last world chest and it dropped then… Jesus Freaking Christ… So much time wasted for 1 lousy drop with garbage random perks (immediately deleted the item). Sorry Bungo… But people won’t be doing this crap cause the reward (and time invested) is not worth the grind. You’re literally killing your own population by making these unnecessary changes that nobody wanted.

https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/Article/destiny_2_update_8051 I could be wrong, but I don't see anything about the class item in these patch notes. I don't think anything changed with it today.

Lmao you must be illiterate. They mentioned nothing about the class items in this update. Calm your emotions little buddy. It's a video game 🤣

[quote][quote]Thought Destiny was about the loot but seems it's more about taking up as much time as possible.[/quote] It’s this point right here. I noped out of the grind for the ridiculous class item when I realised there are 64 possible roles just for one class. So 192 for all three classes. Given the drop rate and the chance of getting duplicates that would take over 912 runs of duel destiny or 303 hours or 12.6 days just playing Duel Destiny. That’s absolutely -blam!--ing ridiculous. And the fact they just removed farming from chest in the pale heart which for many of us was the far more effective option, as how many of us can do 20 min runs of Duel Destiny? Edit:- Btw those figures above are based on 20 min runs of Duel Destiny. For me personally you can add another 10 mins per run on average. So that would mean 18.9 days of farming Duel Destiny. Genuinely you can -blam!- right off Bungie, and you can stick your exotic class item where the sun doesn’t shine. And the more you double down on these stupid decisions the more people you’ll push away. Evidence :- https://youtu.be/6gg9NNjbBIE?si=bveqhIzWdoSg36LF Edit 2:- I’m ranting now so sorry ‘bout that. I haven’t even spent that time (18.9 hours) in the previous three raids before Salvations Edge ( CE + RoN + KF = 13.42 hours) and I have a full set of well rolled armour for each class and all the raid gun patterns for those three raids. And I have the seals for two of them!!!! FFS Bungie I don’t mind a grind but the rewards have to be worth the time invested. [b][u][i]And even when you change it, it still won’t be fit for purpose as you never get anything right when we talking about time investment vs rewards.[/i][/u][/b][/quote] Seems like I’m prophetic. FFS Bungie.🤦‍♂️ Original post :- https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/264239441/0/0/1
