Nightfalls should only award guaranteed pieces of weapons of legendary quality or above as a final reward for completing this task. Hard work should be always rewarded with great stuff not something that we already have 100+ times in our vault (Ascendant Shards/Energy) and im pretty sure the whole community have 50+ by now even the newcomers. The nightfall RNG needs a fix ASAP. Not fair for the majority of the community to complete a task and not get proper rewards especially the newcomers in this game. Being under Lv 30 and try the Nightfall and see if by a miracle you can beat it. Then you beat it, wait for the reward and get spit in the face. RNG is killing this game. Especially the most important RNG based activity of the week, The Nightfall. If you want to get ascendant shards/energies do the daily 3 times with your 3 characters and you are guaranteed to get 6 ascendant materials or just do VOG on hard to get 25+ materials in just one run. In review, we prefer winning a ramdom legendary/exotic weapon or gear than having the excuse for a prize in form of "ascendant materials". Think about it Bungie we deserve better rewards. My recomendation 65% Legendary ramdom weapon 15% Ramdom Strange coins or Motes of Light starting at 9 up to 15 (this is a great incentive and doesn't feel that useless) 20% Exotic ramdom gear/weapons ---If this percents doesn't work like that make your own percents just remember to guarantee something good for the effort--- I eliminated legendary engrams from the equation because they usually turn into shards/energy and completing a nightfall for 2 materials seems like a pretty bad joke. As I said before, materials can be obtained in big quantities fron dailies and raids even patrol just like spinmetal, helium, relic iron and bloom so there's no need for them on nightfalls. Imagine completing the Nightfall and get Helium Filaments as reward. It's the same concept. Materials doesn't belong in the Nightfall. Good players deserve better and RNG ain't helping. Starting at the Nightfalls and ending at the battlefield of the crucible. If you do great at something expect great things this is how this game supposed to be right? Little by little people are stopping playing this game and it will continue like that until you reward better your community, Bungie. NO MORE MATERIALS ON NIGHTFALLS BUMP if you agree and want to see some changes.
