Okay, so piece of advice: The raid doesn't drop loot, glimmer or EXP. So just go in knowing that.

You get raid gear.

And I've seen blue and green engram drop as well as people getting glimmer. One streamer got a legendary sniper for beating the first boss.

Got my first legendary weapon from A rare engram yesterday at lvl 21. A machine gun. Wish it was a primary but oh well its still good

I can't really bitch about not getting legendary gear since i got 3 legendary weapons. A rocket launcher and two different machine guns. I too wished it was a primary..or even a secondary. However I did however get an exotic chest armor piece from a legendary engram, so there's that at least.
 
Got real lucky last night. Got an exotic weapon (Gjallerhorn or something, Rocket Launcher) found? upon completing a Crucible match. Nice! I don't even have any legendarys yet.

Creeping my way to Lvl 21. It's pretty grindy now though as leveling is so slow.
 
Played my first Strike. Boring as sin, that took forever.

And at the end of it the two other guys got the higher level Hand Cannon I wanted and all I won was gauntlets :(

After 3 hours farming the moon thing finally got a legendary, a bloody pulse rifle, I went straight back to my uncommon hand canon....

I've done Moon, Mars, Venus, and Nexus farming with nothing really great to show for it. It's more fun to run strikes or do Patrols and hope for gear to drop as opposed to hours of farming the same thing over and over and over.
 
Those Legendary engrams are seriously annoying. Why is there even a chance that they're anything less than legendary? It's hard enough getting one to drop. I don't even get excited when I see one anymore. Do they become more common after a certain level? I'm level 24.

Honestly, I'm starting to think farming is fucking up your decryption chances - I've had a legendary turn into a blue a single time and I never farmed until last night (for 20 minutes total).
Doing patrols, Strike Playlists and Crucible earned me rare/legendary drops on a regular basis and made my vanguard/crucible ranks go up to be able to BUY legendary armor in case nothing was dropping.
But hey, keep farming and ending up with blues I guess.

I think I'm with you on this one. Rather farm up the rep and marks and get guaranteed loot than flip out because a legendary engram ends up blue.
 
I did that glimmer farming method that was floating around yesterday when I got home last night.

Spent about two hours. Got about 40,000 glimmer. Wasn't even enough to get my cryptarch to the next level (and he was about a quarter of the way through before I even started farming.) Went to Nexus farm for the last 2 blue's I needed to push the cryptarch into the next level. Got my blues in about 5 minutes. Upgraded cryptarch, package from post master.... two blue Helmets.... and one turned into a green helmet.

Two and a hour hours of my life wasted.

Went into crucible FFA, third match got a purple engram. It stayed purple, but not for my class. Oh well, at least I can save it for when I start another class.

All of these farming methods don't give me shit. I make my money in the crucible, thats about it. And thats where I've gotten my only legendary weapon.

The problem with Legendary engrams for me is the fact that you have a much higher chance of pulling a rare than legendary.
 
I'm starting to fucking hate this game.

I get no good loot from the lvl 20 strikes that take forever and are just not fun for the most part. I can't take farming for more than 30 mins and even then I get nothing good.

I did the Mars strike last night and it was the most miserable thing I've played, constant shield adds spawning right on top of you over and over. That tank before, ugh.
 
Okay on my way home now, what's the current best shit to farm right now? Link Youtube please.

Meta changes so frikkin' fast, can't keep up.
 
When I said no loot, I meant no Engram drops from normal mobs. You do get loot, we got Raid armour drops just before fighting the first major boss.

the tank is pretty easy if you take some of the interceptors to fight it

And even if you get a legendary, it can be for any class. Which ONLY happens with that rarity, never was a thing rare or below.
 
I'm level 25 and I have never ever ever received a Legendary or higher drop. The bunch of Engrams I did get were Rares. The only Legendary items I have are:

1 Crucible arm gear which I had to buy myself from the Crucible lad.
1 Hunter arm gear which is swell and all but I am a TITAN.
1 Titan mark which is the New Monarchy one I use to get New Monarchy exp so I had to also buy this myself.

Destiny's like that moody other half who won't put out no matter how much you try and tempt and work at them.

I 've needed a new helm for almost 6 levels now (i'm 26) and yesterday I no joke got 5 legendary helm engrams. One was a hunter helm and the rest were blues that were way worse than what I was using. So fuck this game, I'm buying my helm today because it cleary doesn't want me to have one.
