I'm just throwing this out there. If you solo the legendaries I can see how this would be frustrating running it multiple times and barely being rewarded because of how the loot pool is designed to have filler items and the rng, but have you thought of how easy it is to run them hundreds of times with a fire team? If Bungie adjusts the drop rates to favor the players in this activity with a fire team exotics would be dropping like candy. Well, from my experience when things are handed out like candy it loses its interest, the sense of value, the incentive to run an activity, and once you have everything from that activity how many times are you going to go back and run it for fun? Look at Eververse how Bungie screwed up big time with the loot pool when it comes to ships, sparrows, ghost shells? Even though they are just cosmetics at one point they use to have a sense of value. They were items a lot of players had an interest in because D1 wasn't flooded as D2 actually is with these items that are handed out like candy, and they were placed in the activities giving that (incentive to want to acquire them,) but they don't have the sense of value anymore because for 4 years Bungie used them as bait in hopes that would get more players to buy items with silver. So is it really worth running an activity as such just to have the loot system give you what you want for just a couple of runs?

  • Your whole point is MOOT because it is only solo runs in Legendary & Master Lost Sectors that qualify for the chance of an Exotic. Even if one drops it is not guaranteed to be the new season Exotic you want, it can be something you already have of the type set for that day... Even if it is the new season Exotic armor you wanted, it might have terrible stats etc etc It is very unrewarding and needs attention You can try running it with a fireteam - I guarantee none of you will get anything worth the effort

  • Yes, it is worth my time if I run the Legendary and Master multiple times and get an exotic. Since I am looking for a particular roll on armor, I should get more drops than 1 every 6-10 times I run it. The odds of getting the stats in the right places are very low. Why would I spend hours upon hours only to get 1, 2, or 3 drops only to have them not even over 15 or 20 in 2 spots? I dont run them unless they are part of a challenge. It doesnt respect my time. I can run it 10-20 times get 1 or 2 exotics and the stats won't even be in the right spots or high stat. It just shows Bungie has no clue how to handle their own content when it comes to loot.

  • Exotics only drop on solo runs and on average, I think you get one every 6 or so runs.

  • [quote]Exotics only drop on solo runs and on average, I think you get one every 6 or so runs.[/quote] I got all 9 of the lost sector exotics just in this season and it was in the legendary sectors not master. Some were on the first run and some were on the 6th. Did you kill all the champions and do it under 7-8 mins without dying? That seems to work the best.

  • Yea, this is a new account that I'm playing and got all hunter armor exotics running legend. For my times, it depends on the lost sector. Veles is about 2 min while the others about 5-8 min, all platinum.
