Alright so I keep seeing all these posts of people complaining about the lack of keys dropping, and while to some degree I understand and some people have good and interesting ideas to get more. You have to understand something.
THEY. ARE. STRIKE. SPECIAL. DROPS.
The keys are essentially a strikes special armour, weapon, etc, drop except you get to choose what strike reward you get. I know someone who did the psion flayer strike more times then they could count, we're talking over a hundred on top of normally getting it in random strike rotation to get the cloak. She never got it till the keys came out.
The keys are a strikes special drop, so with that in mind think back and try and recall how often those dropped. For some who were crazy lucky, often for others as mentioned above not so much. So please stop complaining about the dang keys and use your brain. Especially when there are many other issues with Destiny to be concerned about.
I apologise if this is a little incoherent and a little all over the place, I wrote this being quite tired.

The items themselves are cosmetic. So them being specific is pointless. Them helping you level would be a better argument. But it's still too slow even for that. Which doesn't make sense. The point of ROI was to be able to level from multiple sources. And these strike caches are so few and far between its pointless. The fact that the items are unique is irrelevant, they provide no advantage. Some guns function different, sure. But none are top tier anyways, and a lot of vendor stuff outperforms. They should drop more often to compensate for these items being nothing but fuel.
