Your clear time is irrelevant - and in a game with RNG, it's all about luck. Some people will get it on their 1st run, some will take 20+. No different than the people who farm GMNF's to get the adept weapon, but only getting crap rolls that they don't want. You get what you get - not what you want, unfortunately.

It's not just luck, it's also low drop rates.
-
From every post i've read about drop rates, the common consensus is that LS, unlike raids have a 25% drop rate, with no bad luck protection. I wouldn't call that low. If someone doesn't get it in 4-5 runs - that's just bad luck. Maybe add BLP, but no buffs

Getting the exotic from Lost sector is just the start for most unless you got really lucky and stats just like you liked. That's why, they don't need low drop rates since, players are more than likely to grind for the same exotic for better stats. I do support the idea of increasing drop rate with each or every 2 completion. 5% or 10%, whatever tickles Bungie's fancy. But getting stuck at quest steps/lost sectors for loot that won't even be used is meaningless.

Is the stat roll what they're complaining about? If that's the case, that's just over all RNG programming. Drop rates are one thing, but if trying to get that one perfect stat armor piece is completely random. Can anyone answer if you can even get more than one exotic on the same character per day?

Yes, the stats are mostly luck, and that's why the drop rates should be higher. So they can be grinded for and farmed this would also lead more play time since they would drop reasonably. I don't think there is set rule against it, I had 2 exotic drop at the same time in the last 3 or 4 days (to be precise, it wasn't from legendary lost sector though can't remember from where). However, you gotta ve very very very lucky to have that even in general.

I thought legend had %10 and master had %20?
-
I started off thinking it was 6% across the board, until I had never gone more than 5 without getting the exotic drop, and someone on the forums mentioned that it was 25% - where they got the source, is beyond me, but I figured it was some data miner hacker stuff
