Unique Strike Gear more rare than Exotics?

So its been a week of grinding Shadow Thief strike for the Mark of Taniks. And not the slightest drop of this item. Is unique strike gear supposed to be extremely rare? I wouldn't understand the logic if Bungie decided to make unique legendary gear more rare than exotics. Instead of the three of coins increasing the rate at which only exotics drop, why not increase the rate at which all good drops will drop? By good drops I mean legendary engrams, unique strike gear especially, and exotics. The rate at which each type of drop would be different of course. This would restore the rarity of each type of gear. Sorry if this goes against the easy grind for exotics, but IMO I would rather get a hold of things that make my Guardian look like the legend he is supposed to be. Theoysion Vibrrasae for my warlock, the psion cloak or mark of taniks for my hunter, the darkblade helm for my titan or the maulers. I currently only have the darkblade helm. That helm and the psion seems to be the only frequent drops from the strikes. Please chime in on anything I have said, whether it is trolling or actual advice, I will reply as if it were constructive and literal. Thank you all Guardians, GameGolem See you starside...

  • After the 70 strikes I've done, I've gotten: Cloak of taniks Solar flayer mantle 2x gloves from echo chamber 2x fusion rifle from allakhu 8 exotic engrams, 2 chestplate, 2 primary, 1 special, 1 gauntlet, 2 helmet Numerous legendary engrams So yea, I'd say *with three of coins* exotics (atleast for me) are more common. However you have to realize the only reason they seem more common is because of you using a consumable enhancer. The base drop rate of an exotic would obviously be lower than that of the legendaries without your three of coins.
