Please look up the law of averages. In your example you say if there was 10 exotics you should expect it one in ten times but that's not true at all. They would all have a ten percent chance each time an exotic dropped, so odds never increase.Think of it's like flipping a quarter you have a 50 percent chance but out of ten times you could get 7 heads, it doesn't mean it still didn't have a 50% chance.

  • right, I'm saying that odds of getting certain weapons are extremely lower than other weapons, and the percentages are dynamic based on algorithms - have you had the weapon before? odds increase if you have had the weapon before. What is the players favorite weapon type? odds of that weapon type decrease.

  • do some reading about probability and odds, and how astronomically improbable it is to get two Gjallarhorns on the same two characters, two weeks in a row. Or the others that open 4 legendary engrams and get the same gun 4 times in a row...

  • The chances of getting two Gjallarhorns in a week are the same as getting the Suros Regime and the Ice Breaker (in order) in a week. Based on the comments you've made, the only one around here that needs to read up on probability is you.

  • Law of averages works wonders in business marketing.
