It can't be fixed because it isn't broken :P Its just a low chance to get it to drop.

I did want it but the 400 Midnight Coups I got sorta made me not give a fxck anymore. I'm still confused with how this counts as strike specific loot. We had strike specific loot in D1 and it was miles better than this uninteresting shit.

Just bad rng. First 10 runs I got 2 DFAs, after that it took me almost 40 runs before I gotta Wardcliff catalyst.

Wow only 37? I did 150. Still no DFA

Midnight Coup is better. You could've easily gotten on if you put as much time into raiding as you do into doing the same strike 50+ times.

I have run the Prestige Nightfall 80 times this week alone. I have run the normal Nightfall 25 times this week. I have run the Tree of Probabilities Nightfall over 300 times when it has been the Nightfall. I have never gotten a DFA to drop in any fireteam I have been in. This RNG system is broken and absolutely ridiculous. Why on earth would I care about random rolls coming back if I cannot even get one of the guns. I am a day 1 destiny player but honestly Bungo has used up every ounce of goodwill they have. Every time they do something good like Nightfall rewards or the Whisper they bungo it up by randomizing it to oblivion. This needs to change ASAP!

I ran it 3 times and got it. So yeah it was dropping.

It never ceases to amaze me how much time sink into this worthless sequel.

Usually these threads have been overrun by the no lifers and BDF by now who troll the forums calling players like you "entitled whiners who want everything handed to you". I guess even they are finally getting tired of Bungie's heavy relience on rng for literally everything with the WotW quest issue (cabal event repetition) doing a fantastic job of highlighting the inherent flaws in such systems. Unfortunately, there really isn't anything much to be done about upping your odds. From what I've seen of player testing the odds of strike exclusive drops do not increase enough with score to warrant farming via prestige scoring (going for high score every trip) due to the increased time spent per trip. Your best bet seems to be getting a high score once to unlock the weekly challenge perk and then simply speed running for more dice rolls after that without trying for a high score. The issue is that Bungie will not reveal drop chances but we can say without any doubt that those odds are extremely low and likely somewhere in the 1-5% area. This means each time you run the strike you have a 1-5% chance, whether it's your first or five millionth run. So Johnny go lucky might get his DFA on his first run while you may very well never see it. It's for that reason that many players (myself included) have posted various suggestions on how to fix the loot system (without removing the rng or grind) but we always got chased out of town by the BDF and no-lifers for daring to make such suggestions. Hopefully, you'll get your drop soon enough. Edit: Editted for clarity in regards to prestige score farming.

It’s completely random. Literally just put on prestige and just go for speed runs. The more you do the better.

I've done 220 nf runs now this week, have seen the DFA drop for others, not sure why I can not get it to drop, Will be grinding the rest of today, Will take any advice at this point

I had 2 drop back to back this week. My 11th and 12th DFA overall.

Jesus, truly amazing how many sweaty tryhards there are over a stupid fukking weapon, with less then stellar drop rates. Play something worth a damn. Hell go outside, get fresh air!! Take a shower!

I did the Prestige NF about 78 times since Friday. No D.F.A. drop. Bungie, is this right? I know the community asked for more "grinding" but I ran the NF 78 times and I still haven't gotten a drop.
