Raid reward system is broken...IMO. Is the raid reward system broken for you?

yes

no; it seems fair

no; it doesn't seem fair

I feel that the reward system in the raid is broken. I have completed the raid approximately 15 times [EDIT: I've actually completed the raid 24 times]. About half of those times I have been getting the 5th chest. I am only counting the first play-through of the week for each character. I usually play with the same people most of the time. They have all received good rewards and have enough raid armor to make 2 level 30 characters. In all of that time, I have only received 3 pieces of armor (excluding warlock bonds). The most important piece of armor to make level 30, boots, have not been dropped once. I am beyond frustrated. I played the raid last night and I received 1 item; Praedyth's Revenge, which was my third time receiving. All of my teammates received 2 or 3 items (weapons and armor). I have one teammate that has played the raid 4 times and already has a full set of armor (with an exotic helmet). In all of my raid play-throughs I have received; Weapons; Praedyth's Revenge (x3) Found Verdict (x1) Corrective Measure (x1) Shadow Price (x1) Vision of Confluence (x1) Hezen Vengeance (x1) Armor; Gloves of the Hezen Lords (x1) Cuirass of the Hezen Lords (x2) Fragment of the Prime (x4) Disclaimer: I enjoy playing Destiny a lot. I am not hating on the game, I am just frustrated that I don't seem to get as many rewards on the raid as everyone else that I play with.

    I have done the raid 8 times, I still need the boots, and I have only received 2 raid guns. I have run people through the VOg and on their first time they got all they needed to hit level 30. There should be some sort of system implemented that could prevent this sort of issue from happening. For example, with the current system of vanguard reputation and marks, means that if you do not get lucky enough to get a legendary drop, if you play the game enough and on the higher difficulty systems, you can eventually guarantee yourself the opportunity to get level 29 gear from the Vanguard outfitter. They have done this for strikes, run enough of them and if your still missing the boots you can buy the boots if you grind for it. However with the raid, it is all a roll of the dice. Some people are going to roll once and get everything they could want or need. Some people are just going to loose. (I know someone who has gone through the VOG 15+ times and has not got any raid gear to show for it) There should be a system implemented, like the strike playlist, but for raids, were you can earn raid reputation and marks. Possibly even raid bounties. EG. beat raid in less than 1 hour, beat raid on hard, kill templar without allowing him to teleport, get past conflux with less than 3 vex sacrificing themselves. You do enough of these, you could visit a raid vendor that you can guarantee yourself some raid gear that the RNG system has not been giving you.
