Steezy, I'm sorry you are sooo frustrated. Let me try to help you out.
Please don't take offense to this, but if you don't have any legendary guns and gear already , you are playing this game TOTALLY wrong. You shouldn't be depending on IF you get lucky for drops. Think of it like.. you are walking in the street and you happen to come across a $20 lying there. If so GREAT... SWEET!. But you shouldn't be walking in the street looking for a $20 and if you don't see one get all upset.
Please go to the bounty guide, and get yourselves bounties.. and do those as much as you can each day. Get your level in Vanguard up and you can buy your gear, instead of hoping to get drops.
Or.. join a faction and do the same thing... Join Dead Orbit, or New Monarchy, or FWC in the tower. Once you get to level 3 in either of these factions or Vanguard rank, you can buy all the purps you need.
Hope this helps, and if you have any questions, let me know.
PS... I haven't had ONE, not ONE legendary I own be from an engram drop. So i'm right there with you. I have ha dto work for what I have, and either gotten it directly dropped from a Raid, Queens gear, or Strike drop.

This is the way. Level crucible and vangaurd. Level cryptarch, and take bounties everywhere you go. Just as i was ready to buy my first legendary weapon, i got two purple engrams that yielded a cryptic dragon and the crash shotgun.

Someone should mention that faction items cost crucible marks
