What's the deal here ? Did I miss a patch note ? Since the patch I have gotten ZERO Strange coins from chests, engrams, public events or ANY random source that would normally provide them (on rare opportunities). And I have been trying like crazy to get just one more. The ones for the weekly heroic strike are awared as advertized, but since the patch I have not been able to aquire even just ONE by other means. Just shit luck ?
Not being able to get just ONE MORE coin for days and therefore missing something you want from Xur (wanted Red Death for kicks) is beyond frustrating.
I've also noticed the rewards for gold tier on public events have been significantly lowered. From like 30ish events I have gotten ONE Ascendant Energy and that's it. ONE.
Cryptarch less of an a-hole now, but all other (usefull loot) sources nerfed to hell ? What gives ? Am I having a streak of bad luck ? Not to mention, I haven't seen a purple engram in a while either .....

Heh, how did this get 3 replies 6 DAYS after I made the post ? :) Funny how these things go. BUT ..... about half a day or a little more after I made this post stuff actually happend. Rewards started working again and with the weekly reset everything was back to the way it should be. It would seem (not confirmed) that hitting the weekly max on Vanguard marks actually blocks a lot more that just Vanguard mark earnings. That would be my impression after this. I'll hit the max today for sure even tho I tried not to get to close but ........ I'll see if that has any effect on the other Vanguard related rewards such as coins and mats. May still all be shit luck and stuff, never know with random systems. RNG is great to hide odd mechanics and rush-jobs behind :)
