At the beginning of the April Update, I was rank 6 in crucible on my hunter, since I don't usually play much crucible. Since then I have ranked up to 22, thanks to tons of bounties, grinding, and rep boosters.
Out of all the rank up packages so far, I haven't received anything but armor. Specifically chest armor and boots. No cloaks, no helmets, and no gauntlets. Just chest armor and boots.
I started to do some math, and here's what I got: (correct me if I'm wrong)
-there are 22 items that you can get
-2 of those are chest armor and boots (duh)
-that means that there is a ~9% chance of getting chest armor or boots
The chance of getting chest armor or boots [b][i]16 times in a row[/i][/b] would end up being 5/1000, or 0.5%.
There is no way that any of this is RNG anymore. If you look at the rewards, the odds of getting a weapon is 17:5. So I should be getting weapons more often, right? Or are armor pieces more heavily weighted? If they are, then that means that it isn't a [i]random[/i] number generator.
Thanks for reading this far.

Wouldn't it be 9% each time though
