Final edit: This is regarding having a chance of getting no drops from hard mode. A lot of people, including myself, have gotten very frustrated with this to the point where we just don't want to play anymore.
PROOF THIS IS NOT A GLITCH AND SOMETHING WHICH IS INTENDED BY BUNGIE:

It's not easy with a LFG team and after you spend a while fighting the boss, you get nothing or just normal mode loot. What's the point of doing it on Hard if you won't get loot anyway?
I've seen it all. Vault of Glass normal and hard, Crota's End normal and Hard, along with Prison of Elders. I've been through forever 29 but never complained about the rewards but this time I am as every other encounter gave you something every time.
Below is my original post.
Don't I just love it when I spend 20 min on a encounter only to get nothing? Last week it was nothing from sisters. This week, it was nothing from Golgoroth and I was the one who had the gaze. Whoever thought it would be a good idea to remove drops completely is a dumbass who deserves a slap to the face.
GIVE US GUARANTEED DROPS ON EVERY ENCOUNTER!
Just to clarify one thing, I'm not asking for straight 320 drops with perfect rolls. I'm just asking for drops. Now, with the variety of things you can get, you won't be done immediately. You get a drop, then it needs to be 320 and it needs desirable rolls.
For those of you saying "It has always been like this", it hasn't. I've been here since week one (Sign of Founders on my Hunter) and I'll tell you why. Before you got shards and / or energies. You could use those to upgrade your initial gear and make it more powerful. You got something out of it if you remembered correctly. Now, since you don't need ascendant materials to upgrade anymore, the equivalent could be seen as weapons or gear. You use high light stuff and upgrade your initial gear and make it more powerful.
If you do a normal raid and complete it, then do a hard raid, or just do a hard raid straight then you have the chance of getting nothing which has 310+ light until Oryx. What was the point of doing the previous encounters then if they don't guarantee you items? And it's not like this is infrequent. I didn't get anything from 3/5 encounters last week and 2/5 encounters this week. How is that fair?
Also, those of you calling me "entitled", I am entitled. I finished the activity therefore I earned the rewards. If you disagree with that then why not just remove loot completely from every activity?
Edit: 250+ replies. Let's keep going until Bungie sees this
Gecko 77 made a very good point:
[quote]Players should always feel like they are progressing. They should come out of the raid atleast one light level higher than when they started.[/quote]
triplearod also made another very good point:
[quote] The main difference in VoG and Crota's End is all weapons were exactly the same so you had to only get them once, low drop rate is fine in that instance. Armor may have different stat roll but the maximum light was always the same
Now were not only rolling against the chance it drops, but its Atk/Def values, and its perks. Im fine with the variance as it makes the raid more replayable, but something should drop even if it is a 310 hallowed pieces of gear. Maybe that gear will have stats & perks I like and is worth infusing up.[/quote]
Edit: RIP my notifications tbh

Bump and signed

They need to fix the "less repeats" loot table. I just finished a hard raid where I got 4 pairs of gloves. Also "no reward" shouldn't be a possible drop

Signed, hardmode is way too stingy.

I agree with this its crap I have ran two characters through to groth and have got nothing except shards I mean not even the stupid normal raid drops either what is the point is trying to do something for an hour or so to just not get anything I still like the game but that's just stupid. For one forget our light lvl for a min ... How are we supposed to lvl up our weapons if we can't get the get to infuse in to them?

Waste of time. All they will do is increase drop rate by like 5% lol.

Bump both normal and hard raid drop is awful !

100% agree raid drops are awful. The other day I spent probably 3-4 hours on oryx alone from a group off lfg. Personally, I know the fight well and could get it finished first time every time, provided the teams good. 3-4 hours of patience and persistance rewarded with a 300 pulse, normal class item, 2 shards and 310 harrowed auto rifle. What a load of shit that is right? And that's not even the worst of it. Did hard warpriest and got NOTHING WHATSOEVER. Completely unrewarded for doing a top job being relic guy giving team enough time to kill in 2.

I'll sign this 1000 times what they are doing is bs! It's not like people are cheating on the raids like in the past and farming rewards but we're doing it legit mainly because for once the raid doesn't feel broken other than a few minor glitches. But seriously not getting drops for playing something that takes several hours is blaming retarded! Half of the fire teams I play with are barely over 310 which is recommended for the new raid. I understand what your doing your being lazy and working on the new game and need this broken pos to last a year so given worthless rewards week in and week out keeps us playing! Well guess what before long we will all wake up and be done as today stands I'm not buying destiny 2 everyone I talk to agrees a games supposedly to be fun a release not something that consumes your life in order to keep up with everyone

Couldn't agree more

Agreed I just normal and got no reward so I should get something from hard mode.

Signed.

I hear that bud!! And if they would ever fix the PS3 old ass servers we got passed down to it would be GREAT! Meanwhile, we all are stuck on crappy Modern Warfare hacked to hell and back servers that are glitching mad like tweaker during midnight... > . < Seriously, why did they do that?! I paid money for a shit connection??? Come on [b][u]Bungie[/u][/b]: fix your shit!

No raid boss should ever have a chance to drop nothing. I hereby sign this petition for Bungie to stop sending this game downhill in a huge snowball.

Bump again.
