Lvl 31 Warlock. After almost 175 hrs of gameplay (a lot for me), last night around 1045 PM CST I finally got a 6 man team to run Crotas End on Hard Mode! Was excited as hell! Time to get my ass kicked, but earn rewards for enduring the ass kicking. The leader of the mission was happy to know the other 5 of us had some goodies coming....and then it happened. We reach the first bridge and everyone is waiting to see what pops up and guess what...nothing for me. What do I get? I get radiant shards. No weapons. No gear. Nothing. So I figure, hey, there's another drop after the second part, so I'm cool. NOT. Second part completes and what do I get? Radiant energy. Now I'm super pissed. It got so late in the night (almost 3am EST) before we could fully compete the mission, so we stopped, but it didn't matter. I was already disconnected from the game knowing I was jerked and wasted my time. I'm sent to bed with nothing but that empty feeling when you know you just got ripped off for all the time you just spent KNOWING you'd get rewarded for your gameplay, but instead get robbed. Hard Mode says you get weapons for completing stages, so what the hell Bungie? That was super wack. IJS, that's complete BS and it should be fixed. Everyone that braves to play it on hard should be GUARANTEED something. Oh well, they don't read these anyway, so it doesn't matter, but I needed to vent anyway. EDIT: This post is ancient fellas. Not sure why it keeps popping up. I've since gotten drops on Crota, Atheon, Crucible, Nightfall, etc. I'm enjoying the game and so should you Guardian.
