Bungie is challenging players?

I challenge Bungie to the Legendary Engram Challenge.

Where they have to go engram farming for legendaries with the current RNG system and get a legendary their class can use, or they have to donate $100 towards the Tower Suicide Watch Association.

Im done with this until they patch the loot.
My brother has gotten 15 legendary engrams and they all turned out to be blue items weaker than what he has.
I played the strike playlist 4 days in a row and get nada, not going to continue if a legendary drop doesn't actually give shit anyway.
don't worry about engrams man :[ get yourself some gear
Amazing write up Hawk. You make me prouder err'day. Except on Tuesdays, I don't like Tuesdays.
:')

I'm working on a "tips and tricks" post now too

Why isnt not going to happen? It is the biggest complaint people have about the endgame.

Because the legendary items that are actually are in the game are too few in numbers? If I got a legendary each time I had a legendary engram I would have 35 legendary items right now which is like half the game has.

Why are there so few legendary? Is this game suppose to be a loot game.

WTF. I'm trying to go to the tower and all I see is my stupid ship flying. Think the game sort of "froze" without actually freezing. Nothing is loading and I can't go to the options menu. Anyone had this happen?

You can't go to the options menu at all during that process so that's why, but yes I've had it happen, it usually solves itself after a minute or two, never had it get stuck permanently yet.

Got my first exotic bounty!

First tier:
5 Strikes without dying.
Easy. Spammed devil's lair, level 8.

Second tier:
Earn a Kills/Death spread of 25 in the Crucible.

At least I get to spam PVP, which I enjoy, and I can get sweet epix doing that.

Maybe I can try going 0 and 25? That is a 25 spread...

Rep is taking forever, not even lv1 yet so im sitting at 24 stuck.

Get on the vanguard bounties and do them whilst you farm spinmetal/helium filaments/spirit things/relic iron, then hand them in at the faction of your choice (vanguard, crucible, whatever) and get extra rep. You can do it!

I think the best solution for engrams would be to rework the drop rates so that they are a guarantee. If I got Legendary engrams less often, but I knew it was a guaranteed Legendary it'd feel a lot more satisfying.

Speaking of Legendary Engrams.. the game is actively mocking me. I have one of each secondary as a legendary but any engrams I do get are also secondary :L

This game is for folks that don't work or have kids...for Pete's sake, I just can't keep up.

I am going to have to find another game that doesn't keep me up all night.

I haven't even used my Vanguard code....... <sigh<

All you need to do is cap marks every week until you're all legendaried out and you'll be "on pace" with everyone else.

The description is wrong. They missed a . in it

It should read get a 2.5 kill death ratio.

So it's really easy. Get 2 or 3 kills in Control and then hide for the rest of match and try not to do. Voila you are done.

You're not alone. I have every single bit of kit as legendary/exotic but that primary just will not drop at all. I've decided I'm buying one either from either the vanguard or Xur. The RNG seems to be holding a grudge for my early luck and has left me with the same gun for the past 50 hours as my primary. Never even seen a primary legendary engram yet.

Assuming your other gear is maxed out upgrade-wise, your first armor upgrade to those gloves will put you at 25.
I'm trying to dig through old posts....can someone repost links to vids showing good loot loops?
Are you just trying to gear up or do you want to run such a loop for other stuff?

Ummm...I think both? I'm level 21, and not sure if I need to be farming (not even sure why I need materials) or light gear hunting.
 
You know what's frustrating? Doing the Nightfall Strike, getting the boss halfway down in health, have two of your teammates die, and the game immediately kicks you all three back to Orbit as if all three people had died even when #3 didn't take a single point of damage.

I'm depressed.

Man, the PVP in it's current state is really off putting in it's current state. Rumble used to be a lot of fun, but now it's just shotguns.
