For the record, I specifically haven't posted those before, but they're too good not to post again before the Activision call.

Slayerage is going on 22 hours now with only 1 chocolate no crimson ghost.
Also I'm ashamed.
Slayerage still hasn't had a second ghost drop and is suiciding.

(Hell, I've only gotten one and seen a few drop in total across multiple partners, days and characters.)

It's not, when will bungie learn players are playing this for loot, not for shits and giggles, we want to be rewarded with something meaningful, not endless crap.
If you are going to continue this process of low level drops then add custom playlists. At that point I would consider playing PVP for fun.
Heh, I've got tickets for Sunday (Valentines Day)

Just finished another five hours of suicide farm, still no ghost of either sort. Think I might just have to let this one go.
Another? Ouch
I think it's a matter of principle. The ghost drop rate being so low is emblematic of the overall terrible loot system in 2.0.
Double RNG, lower rates all around, and crappier perks in the pool when you do get something.

It's more that it's easy to farm crucible stuff by doing it

Last year we were chasing Hawkmoon & Fatebringer.
Now we're chasing the ghost of a number.
BE THE BALL, DANNY.

I think the ghost is irrelevant in all this, as said in here many a time the crucible drops rates are pathetic. With this we can knock out three/four chances in the time it takes for one normal crucible match

Yea, I mean i can see the rank up and levelling up subclasses, but damn that's extremely boring.

The drop rate for this ghost is absolutely ridiculous. Slayer has been going for 22 hours and he has gotten ONE ghost. Pathetic event.
Edit: i thought he had gotten one frenden?^

Right?! I pop back into the thread to see what's new and the latest craze is committing suicide in matchmaking to get some crap? lol Bungie... way to keep the population invested hahahaha.
That's a motivator for sure. I kinda want the second shell as a completionist, but I'd rather get a god rolled Party Crasher or Revelator, etc.
He has one ghost, but just said he hasn't gotten one in the 22 hours of this current stream. Funky wording, but basically he had one before this latest 22 hour span.
I'm not playing the game as a matter of principle. It's gotten too asinine even for a Destiny fanboy like me.
I'd except that line of reasoning, just many keep talking about ghosts. There is nothing exciting about a ghost lol.
Bungie fucked up, because I would have given them a lot more money if they focused letting us have fun instead of restricting via arbitrary numbers.

I think I'm at 17 hours total now since the event started...no ghosts. Saw three drop for one of my partners, but none for anyone else either.
Me and Nami just matched with a team that is trolling us, or doing the same thing.
I am honestly not expecting a 320 ghost to drop.
I posted earlier that the RNG odds that people are posting about make it clear that you could do the Crimson Suicides with a rubber band 24 hours a day for all 7 days of this event and still have a very small chance at a 320 ghost.

I played seven rounds and got both shaders, a chocolate ghost (at 285 because of my loadout) and the emblem, so my first impressions were that drop rates were great! My partner even got a ghost too.
Played around ten more and got nothing.
Played around ten more and got nothing.
I've probably got fifteen legit hours and around three to five hours suiciding and only have one shell too. Sucks.
Same thing happened here. The shaders drop quickly and my first partner got lucky and got two shells in our first few hours. Nary a shell has dropped since for anyone I've played with.
Pretty much, I'm hoping for a decent roll for a party crasher, ash factory or maybe a red spectre. But even the rate of the crucible guns is pathetic. At this point in this games life-cycle bungie should be raining us with loot.
Sounds like my exact scenario.
HoW had the best drop rates and endgame progression and it makes me sad to think about how stingy the game has gotten since.

This is painful. Come on Bungie.
His viewer count is like double what I am used to seeing when I go and watch his channel. Crazy.

What if drop rates have been secretly nerfed into the ground when you lose 5-0 or commit x amounts of suicide
3/4s of my play time is legit.
Goth has been playing legit for the past 5+ hours and hasn't gotten anything.

Its gonna take a miracle or rubber bands as he's dying a death
Is Goth moaning about it or is he doing is happy clappy Bungie nonsense still
