Nightfall being a troll(loot)
Ok, so me and a friend decided to duo the weekly heroic strike on 28 and do the Nightfall strike after. We finished the weekly heroic, then went to do Nightfall. We had done last week's as well. This week he got a legendary fusion rifle and I got: a legendary heavy weapon engram. A legendary. Heavy weapon. Engram. ENGRAM. For completing the hardest strike there is in the game(VoG is a raid, not a strike). I got something I drop in open-world for killing level 6-9 mobs. Last week my friend got a legendary auto rifle and I got 8 strange coins. Strange coins are ok, I guess, can buy exotics with them, and 8 is quite the amount, too. And after we finished it last week we did it again to help someone out. That person got an exotic scout rifle(MIDA Multi-Tool, I believe?). What is the motivation I have to do Nightfall again with this kind of drop, Bungie? I thought you said players will be rewarded nicely for completing Nightfall strikes. All I see is crap I can just get from the Vanguard or the rep merchants, or even just from killing random low-level monsters. All the effort of killing that boss for... what exactly? It just ruins the purpose. As if the loot system wasn't bad enough and the worst players in Crucible get legendary engrams and exotic weapons, and the top player gets left with basically nothing. I almost feel like I get punished for being MVP 90% of the time. I just don't know why I should play this game anymore if being a good player helps with nothing at all. I played other MMO's because skilled players were rewarded well. In this game it's just about who spammed loot cave more before the patch or who just gets lucky as sh*t in Crucible and gets an exotic. Just address this ASAP please. I'm sure I speak on behalf of most players in the higher-tiers of Destiny when I say this.
EDIT: Okay, having 2 characters that are able to do Nightfall does help... Got Ascendant Shards after soloing this week's Nightfall hunter, but I got Patience and Time on my warlock. Doesn't mean the loot system is any better with 2 characters, I could've still gotten Shards or Strange Coins, but yeah...

The real reward in my opinion is that xp boost you get. Makes leveling up gear really fast. Doing it with two characters is the way to go though. Gotta love that patience and time come up though, thing is dirtyyyy.

Yeh the loot system needs a major overhaul in general. I do a lot of strikes n quite often get nearly double to kills of other players n don't really seem to be rewarded for it. The fact that I am just as likely to get a legendary drop from a lvl 1 as from a lvl 24 enemy just seems a little off.

2 RepliesThe nightfall gives you a boost on all rep and exp gained= more motes, and legendarys from vanguard or factions. So there's that.

I just played a match of skirmish. I went 4 and 1, got blue trash. My friend went 8 and 1, got nothing. Our teammate went 3 and 4 and got a legendary engram. Score was so low because the enemy team quit. Bungie, what the f*ck?

1 ReplyI did two today and one gave me shards the other 6 strange coins. My teammates got exotics both times. This is just beyond me. This is by far the worst loot system I've ever encountered. Why do I even try?

Random is random.
