Are you doing full clears, or are you getting a checkpoint? Because the bad luck protection only works with full clears.

  • Nothing has been confirmed on the drop rate or what helps it. It’s all conjecture by players. The only thing I’m willing to believe tbh is that returning players and new players get it more often. But even that is unknown

    Wait really? We were farming the last checkpoint.

  • Nah this is a common misconception going around that no one knows the answer to.

  • It’s actually kind of obvious. Why would they let you get this weapon by abusing the checkpoint system? They want you to play 100% of the raid, not just 25%. Why design the rest of the raid then?

Why design the rest of the raid then?[/quote] One could say it's just as obvious you are meant to farm checkpoints. Otherwise why would they put something so obviously intentional in the game. See? Without actual confirmation from Bungie, you simply don't know what you are talking about. We do not know that checkpoint farming affects droprates, and it's not "obvious" it would.

  • For the rest of the loot at those checkpoints?

  • Yeah, and they want you play the entire raid. There is also this issue of people just joining groups to get a checkpoint before they leave. Bungie knows this is a problem, so it makes sense they make it even harder to get loot if you rely on checkpoints.

  • I showed you proof from a Bungie blog and you chose to ignore it. You guys don't want the truth, you want to cry to masses about how much you are abused by Destiny.

  • Can you send me the link of this with proof I don't know if either cp farming or full runs is the way to go

  • Your Bungie blog you showed me debunks Bungie wanting us to play the entire raid. Checkpoints exist specifically for farming an encounter for the loot you want.

  • Bungie literally and specifically states Legendary gear limiters were removed, they even capitalize Legendary, that shows intent. Where does it state 'the Vex', 'Raid Exotic', 'all drops'? You never even asked for the source article, which says the Vex can drop but it may be a bug. You don't want the truth.

  • I accepted the truth. The Vex is still dropping with Legendary capitalized. I am one person of many and just because it did not drop for me does not mean that it cannot drop. YOU don't want the truth.

  • I literally stated the article said the Vex can drop but may be a bug, I didn't exclude anything...I gave ALL the information. What truth am I avoiding or denying? Nevermind, don't answer, I'm not really asking.

  • The truth you are avoiding and denying is the fact the raid exotics drop when it was stated to just be for legendary drops regardless if it is a bug or not.

  • Also, in your post bragging about your 570+ completions, I never once said it would not drop. I believe you don't read full posts, or you see only what you want to.

  • The funny part is if it dropped for people who are farming it this would not even be a topic of discussion. If this is a bug then maybe it should be a feature in the future? What do you think?

  • Bug, no bug; does not matter, the real problem is the micro-managing stranglehold Bungie has on the game. I'm a fan of Raid weapons/armor being rng but the Raid exotics being challenge based. You or anybody else shouldn't have to jump through hoops for a Vex, EoT, 1KV, etc. Here the challenge that unlocks it, go git gud at the Raid and complete it. Poof....nobody to blame but ourselves if we don't have it.

  • This is just speculation. It’s just bad rng. The game doesn’t keep track of your prior encounter completions that week.
