It makes me wonder if the games RNG is pseudo random or rng has some type of bug. What are the chances of this repetition happening? Seems too coincidental.

It's like the raid for me. I have only run it 3 times, and I have gotten Found Verdict to drop at Templar every time. Doesn't seem like that should happen so consistently, yet it does.

You should sit down for this...

On a Stream recently (I really can't remember which) Deej was there playing some crucible matches with the guys who run it I guess. He CONFIRMED that it is not random. There are people at Bungie who decide which items Xur will sell. THIS is what pisses me off. I can deal with RNG bullshit otherwise I would've stopped playing a looong time ago.

 

[Sleepy Buddha]

Oh, these Voidfang max out at 131. I thought it was the base stat. Well, fuck that. The ones on my main maxed out at 144. Gonna get the MIDA instead.

Due, you grinding yet? Those Young Ahamkara Spines won't get to 30 by themselves!

 

[Sullichin]

These voidfangs have +2 more max strength than the ones I have fully maxed out... I won't.

 

[Duebrithil]

Congrats man! Now you have to be 30 by sunday so keep grinding!

And I'm gonna buy Voidfang Vestments again... These are slightly better than the ones I have on my main so I'll pass those on to my alt and level these up for my main... again...

You bet! Those extra bounty slots are going to be useful. And after that, to try and get warlock and titan to 29 (like I'll have any time left...)

I might buy Voidfang for the warlock, just to get some extra gear.

I wish I was, I still have a good 7 hours of work before me

What are everyone's thoughts on MIDA Multi-Tool? The "fires on a hair trigger" perk looks nice, but I don't know if its a worthwhile alternative to VoC.

 

[todd360]

What the actual fuck xur. This shit is not random. Warlock roll is bugged.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

omfg. I just used 23 strange coins to get Mida Multi Tool. And on my first strike, first time using my new Mida, what do I get?

Mida Multi Tool #2.

Man. But now I have to ask myself if I ever would have gotten it at all if not from Xur.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

It is littered with hate. We get none of the good stuff.

Seriously? WTF! That has to be a misquote. I can believe they have some control over it, but wouldn't actually do it. To cherry pick like that is antithetical to everything they say this games loot is based on.

Pack it up boys, Gjallerhorn isn't coming from Xur again.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

It's HAWKMOON!!
He's on the right in the basement all the way in the corner

Titan: No black up plans
Hunter: Young Ahamkaras spine
Warlock: Voidfang vestments
Weapons : HAWKMOON

Spoiler

i lied its MIDA

Helemt emgram

Bah, where's my Gjallarhorn you faceless worm

I will search for the stream archive and when I find it I'll post it in this thread.

Edit: The archive is gone...but here is the page where it was linked, also I've watched it and he said it, trust me. This is bullshit man.

I would actually love for this to happen to me: could give the second one to my alt! :3
Buy one get two!

 

[MrChowderClams]

dont worry from now on, everytime you do the raid you will get the titan arms.

Yeah I cant complain too much it's just that it was my first exotic drop after 200+ hours so it was a little frustrating after just spending the coins to get one. I do like the thing though so it's ok. I didnt even think I'd use it but I probably will. Love the fast reload right off the bat with it.

 

[MrChowderClams]

How I know where Xur is every week:

I can't even see him through the crowd lol

 

[vakarian32]

Third week in a row the exotic helmet engram gives me damn hunter gear, all i want is saint 14 or inmost light

 

[EL CUCO]

Xur, you only had one job if you weren't going to bring Gjallahorn. Heavy weapon ammo...and you fucked it up there too.

And WOW at Void Vestments again!

 

[Orthogonal]

If RNG is out to get me, Xur will sell Gjallerhorn next week when I am out of town for Thanksgiving and unable to log in and buy it.

Now that I think about it, that's exactly what he'll do.

 

[2real4tv]

Meh...Could get to 30 on my hunter with gauntlets but will wait and go for the IB Gaunt's instead. At rank 3.25 now.

 

[1.21Gigawatts]

Grinded the IB for two days to get to rank 4 and buy the gloves, because I needed them to get to Lv. 30.
Do the raid as soon as I am lv. 30, get raidgloves.

This will happen to me. And my warlock who needs boots will never get boots from the raid... Until I buy them from the next IB

Vita remote play ftw

 

[The Driver]

Lol it's funny that I ran the Raid Monday and FINALLY got my gauntlets after a month of trying and then a day later IB pops up with better looking shit and perks more suited to what I run.

Oh well, hit rank 4 and finally bought those sweet ass wolf gloves. Now to decide to keep pushing for rank 5 to get the shader/guns or nah...

Also fuck Xur for not bringing a Hunter helmet for my alt.

 

[Rixa]

This will happen to me. And my warlock who needs boots will never get boots from the raid... Until I buy them from the next IB

Going to buy MIDA today, will probably be my first Exodrop.

Vita remote play ftw

This. Been playing ~4 days now and atleast 50% is by Vita rp, using it at home when TV is in another use.

 

[The Mango Sentinel]

Man I really wanna gamble on an engram, but I feel like my motes are put to better use with the iron banner boost. Anyone know what the percentage is today for the boost?

 

[Souldestroyer Reborn]

So according to the weekly update Thorn is gonna be getting put back to normal and then some?

Worryingly though he said it went from 5 per tick to 3 per tick. No. It actually went from 7 per tick to 3 per tick.

 

[firehawk12]

Blade Dancers are sooooo fucking dumb in the Iron Banner. lol

 

[EmmaWatsonButt]

Awwwwwww yeah, MIDA tool! Now I just need Plan C to complete my exotic collection

Anyone else saving up on motes of light for the new exotics that will come along with the DLC?

 

[Breakfast at Noon]

Is it worth getting the void JUST to hit level 30? it's all i need i been waiting for praxis to drop

 

[Orthogonal]

Vita remote play ftw

Good point, but I am not buying a vita just for this.

Spoiler

if Xur sells Gjallarhorn next week I will be seriously tempted to do so.

Go for PSTV, only 79 bucks.

 

[Orthogonal]

Hmmm, good point. Been thinking about getting one for Christmas. I guess I would have to leave my PS4 on or can RP boot it remotely. Probably have to configure it beforehand so...

 

[chewydogg]

MIDA Multi-tool?

I am OK with this. I love scout rifles, so that has been my most wanted exotic weapon (next to GHorn of course). And now that I have it, VoC will most assuredly drop for me in the raid finally. Thank you, Xur! You da man!

 

[milkham]

what perks should i look for on a timur's lash?

 

[Steroyd]

So I'm happily IB rank 4, buying the class item, using IB to gain exp and upgrade my non maxed weapons...

Suddenly I can't unlock perks on my weapons... look at my glimmer count and it's 39... thirty fucking nine, and the IB weapons are 11k each... the glimmer limit is 25k... I feel like I should have bitched about the glimmer cap as much as the bounty limit, jeez us Chris T, I never thought I'd see the day where I would have to farm glimmer of all things.

 

[Kydd BlaZe]

Oh man! Based Xur bringing the goods lately. The Last Word last week, and now the Mida Multi Tool! Been wanting that scout rifle for a while now (scout rifles are my favorite guns in the game). Also been on the prowl for Young Ahamkara's Spine as well. They just look super badass on Hunters. Gonna buy the No Back Up Plans too, just because I don't have any exotic gauntlets for my titan yet. Bummer about the Voidfang Vestements though. Already have that for my Warlock. Gonna buy everything else though!

 

[Bluenova]

Hmm anyone think those Spine gaunlets are due to be buffed? I've read they are weak, but imma go look at em..lol no Multitool, I have UR and AE for a primary..

 

[Dhruv_hanom]

Careful, they might accidentally nerf it instead.

 

[panda-zebra]

Lack of activity in thread not too promising... check xur... midarse.

urgh.

one of the few exotics I couldn't even be arsed levelling. Will probably still be sat there neglected long after even super good advice is 300.

And not even a token something for a warlock to level just because. Some Warlock or other must have done a very bad thing to old fish face at some point, guy holds a grudge.

I wish I had your optimism. I have resigned myself to the fate of not having VoC or Gjally.

Haha, I finally know why I don't get good raid drops. Someone at Bungie is watching my every move and keeps pressing the ASS MATERIALS ONLY button whenever I'm playing.

 

[void666]

Bought mida, no backup plan and the hunter gauntlet. I had 131 coins so why not? Not happy but not entirely disappointed either.
I hope to buy ice breaker next week. Need a 3rd one.

 

[Jinjo]

Rank 4 in IB, the buff is getting really good now. Will easily hit rank 5 (already 800 rep in). Now to farm strikes for glimmer, ugh.

 

[Skele7on]

anyone want to do raid hard mode?

I want to do it for the first time in a few weeks on my hunter which is level 30.

PSN: Drubbed

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

Oh and of course that punk ass bitch Xur is selling another weapon I already own.

::Sigh::

Man I am so glad I took a break from this deal.

 

[MrAnderson]

I'm doing the lv 28 weekly on ps4 at sepiks if anyone wants to jump in. PSN is greyblade.

 

[SockyJohnson]

Bought the Young Ahamkara's because their discipline is higher than the previous set it got from a engram. Multi-tool is great when fully upgraded.

 

[blackflag]

Nice my daughter got Mida from IB yesterday but she only had 4 coins any way.

I've gotten it 3 times from the raid but I hate the thing and personally think it's terrible.

Happy with No Backup Plans. Gonna buy cuz they look cool. There's nothing I really need anymore besides Gjallahorn and Fatebringer and Xur isn't gonna sell at least one of those.

 

[jett]

MIDA seems pretty lame.

 

[DrDrizzay101]

Anybody for PS4 IB? We've got 4 right now. PSN is DrDrizzay101.
