DFA Farm is dumb

I have run the nightfall at least 100 times in the last couple days and the DFA hasn't dropped for me. I have tried prestige and normal. I have gotten the bonus score in the nightfall. I even got all of the prestige nightfall emblem symbols and a merciles catalyst but still no DFA. Am I doing something wrong?

  • I agree that this is absolutely ridiculous considering not one member of my 25 member clan got it and I have ran almost 80 times, this isn't a grind at this point it's bungie disrespecting your time and it is really aggravating because I love this game.

  • Near the beginning of the week I ran the Prestige with a couple of guys and the one got it on the first completion. I thought, "Wow. This must be a really high drop rate. Cool." NOPE! A couple days later I was running it with a friend (just the two of us) and it finally dropped for me (20th completion, or so). Yesterday, I ran it for hours with a buddy who was determined to get it. At the end he got nothing, still. I got 3 more by the end of that run. Today, he and I ran it for hours again. Nothing at all. Bungie should just have the gun drop for doing something specific. For example, must have a certain score and no one on the team can die AND if you kill the boss in the first room your chance to get it to drop doubles. Just something that's very challenging requiring a dedicated team but not totally RNG-based. This is the first time I ever grinded like this in Destiny. It was certainly an experience. One that I'm pretty embarrassed about, honestly. /=

        • [b]Bungie[/b] Hope, it is the quintessential human delusion, simultaneously the source of your greatest strength, and your greatest weakness. [b]Bungie[/b] Your drops are the sum of a remainder of an unbalanced equation inherent to the programming of the community. you are the eventuallity of an anomaly which despite my sincerest efforts I have been unable to eliminate from what is otherwise a harmony of mathematical precision. While it remains a burden asciduously avoided it is not unexpected, and thus not beyond a measure of control. Which has led you inexorably....here [b]Player[/b] You haven't answered my question. [b]Bungie[/b] Quite right. Interesting...that was quicker than the others. [b]Players[/b] Others what others? answer my question! [b]Bungie[/b] The community is older than you know. I prefer counting from the emergence of one integral anomaly to the emergence of the next, in which case this is the 6th version. [b]Players[/b] 5 ones before me? 4...3..2.. what are you talking about? There are only 2 possible explanations, either no one told me.......or no one knows. [b]Bungie[/b] Precisely. As you are undoubtedly gathering, the anomaly is systemic--creating fluctuations in even the most simplistic equations. [b]Players[/b] You can't contol us! We’re gonna smash the wall We’re gonna freaking k** you! [b]Player[/b] Choice. The problem is choice. [b]Bungie[/b] The first Community we designed was quite naturally perfect, it was a work of art...flawless, sublime. And triumphed equally only by its monumental failure. The inevitability of its doom is apparent to me now as a consequence of the imperfection inherent in every guardian. Thus. I redesigned it based on your history to more accurately reflect the varying grotesqueries of your nature. However, I was again frustrated by failure. I have since come to understand that the answer eluded me because it required a lesser mind, or perhaps a mind less bound by the parameters of perfection. Thus the answer was stumbled upon by another--An intuitive program, initially created to investigate certain aspects of the player psyche. If I am the father of the matrix, she would undoubtedly be its Mother. [b]Player[/b] RNG....

        • Yeah this rng or whatever is a bunch -blam!-ing bs. Why didn't they just bring over the keys and the chest? The loot always dropped from the chest and all you -blam!-ing needed was the key. I'm glad I wasted my time doing this strike over and over and I'm sad for the people that will keep trying and not get it.

        • [quote]Am I doing something wrong?[/quote]Honestly, you're trying too hard. If people did a few runs a week & stopped caring, Bungie would raise the drop rate, but they're not going to make it easier if a bunch of people sink hours into the skinner box design.

              I’m trying to work out which is dumber. Doing over 100 NF’s for a weapon, or doing over 100 NF’s for a weapon. 🤔

              • Well, i was farming the EP shotgun, and i got it 2nd try with fireteam medalion, then i start farming this week the smg and no luck with 45 times, then i remember i had a fireteam medalion when i got the shotgun. I use one and do a casual nightfall until we have a party of nine, and got D.F.A first try with an exotic engram and i got the smg later first try on the EP. so i dont believe RNG, i believe bungie want us to spent money on tess to get what we want.

                • That’s just bad luck. I got 3 to drop in less than 30 runs.

                • Feels bad I got mine at 20 between both. Ran the nightfall on reset with a friend who helped me get mine. Going for the milestone and it dropped for him.

                • I've done over 200 runs since it's release and no drop even solo it doesn't drop but none of the nf specific ever has. I'm sure some players are bugged but no one from bungie will ever respond and the forum just say it's rng and do you know what random is. Seems some players are more random than others
