How to get your FIRST Forsaken EXOTIC
Take a damn break.
No seriously, it works.
I took a break and returned and got Two-Tailed Fox from the Flashpoint reward.
My brother has done it multiple times and has gotten Wavesplitter and Queenbreakers in [u][b]one day[/b][/u]. He’s also gotten Trinity Ghoul and some others.
It doesn’t sound like it makes sense, but if you really think about it, it does...
I grinded my a** off in the first couple days of Forsaken-got nothing. Many others have been in the same boat as me. Then, people have been saying that their [u]friends that barely play are getting new exotics (my friend got Shards of Galanor and only has one character at about 505 light.)[/u].
This is such a Bungie thing to do. Reward players who barely play so they are enticed to play more. And don’t reward grinders and players who play daily so they tell themselves “if I keep playing, I’ll eventually get one”.
Maybe I’m delusional, or maybe I’m right. All I know is I’m sittin here with my first forsaken exotic while others have none.
So take a break, and get some exotics.
Edit 1: Fixed spelling mistakes
Edit 2: Yayyy trending
Edit 3: I see many people asking how long a break you should take-when I got TT fox, I took a 3 day break. I played some GTA V with my brother and some battlefront 2.
My brother however took a week break and got wavesplitter and queenbreakers.
In conclusion, higher break, higher reward. If you don’t mind straying away from Destiny, then 1 week break is for you. If you like looking forward to your daily [u]shooting shït in the face[/u], then take a shorter break.
Edit 4: TOP OF TRENDING!!

No shit Sherlock. Of course it works like that!! How else do you think they Make you adicted😂
-
Only thing is many who take a break from D2 Forsaken probably aren't coming back.
-
That and try changing characters. I think they do try to give awards early in a session and maybe the "early" gets reset for the different characters. No hard evidence, but is sure seems to be the case. For example... I didn't have Antiope after like 150 gunsmith rank ups on my first two guys (back when you really wanted that for PVP) When I finally started playing my 3rd character it was about the first thing he got. They might even have loot tables rigged a bit to make you play all three characters

This has worked all through destiny, even first year D1.

2 RepliesWasn't this a part of that algorithm Activision patented to steer players into the cash shop that bungie swore they would never use?
-
Try this and didn’t work for me so I guess my RNG luck is super bad also like always them legendary engram are Edge Transit.
-
I noticed this also. I stopped playing for a few days and when I got back, EACH of my characters got an exotic Engram drop (not as a reward but a random drop from an enemy)
-
Master RNG and System RNG work best when you never actually play the game, used this trick for Conference Call in BL2 after not playing it for a month straight.
-
It seems like every complaint I see about this, the player only has one character at high light. You fit that description. Use all 3 characters and increase your odds.
-
Damn desire system. That's why I'm so thrilled when I get one after I take a break
-
The exact opposite happened for me
-
1 ReplyDo you think it works with dreaming city ship, sparrow and ghost?
-
Thank you!
-
It does work, I posted about this a couple times already.
-
Interesting, after playing daily in the beginning of the new DLC, I did not play for 3 days this week and got Black Talon and TT Fox on one day. :-)
-
Truth. Grinded first 3 weeks of forsaken with no new drops. Took a break for a week or so. Came back and got a queensbreaker from killing a HVT in gambit and then a suros regime from the daily gambit reward of the same game. Playing nonstop and grinding every powerful drop is tedious and barely rewarding but yes exotics can drop from them. I bet if people just played on the weekends they would have more new exotics. Best of luck folks.
-
I can attest to this took a week break came back for iron banner got two tailed fox from crucible milestone on my warlock. Got shinbous bow on my hunter from gambit milestone. Hoping I get one eyed or ursa furiousa on my titan when I finished either gambit or flashpoint milestone. Literally just do everything half added and they seem to drop more.
-
It works and it's absolutely genius on Bungie's part. eff'd up, but genius. First time back in 2 weeks and Wavesplitter dropped from a random enemy.
