Is RNG weighted to certain perks (combinations)

I keep getting feeding frenzy / surrounded rolls on Recluse. Not exclusively, but noticeably more so than other rolls. With 7 perks in each column, you’d think there would be a better mix. Anybody else notice stuff like this? 🤔 Or is it time I went out and touched grass? 😂

  • I’ve had weapons drop the same perks back to back on multiple occasions it happened literally a few hours ago… so maybe?

    Bungie 100% weights perks. This is the same company that got caught throttling XP in Y1.

    This is being purposely done. Open your eyes people. They know this can't be proven. So it's easily gotten away with as "RNG" to make us grind like madmen. Like scratching off lottery tickets. It's the illusion we are actually getting something exciting. So we keep scratching. Or in this case, grinding.

  • It's not meant to be a better mix, it's meant to keep you playing. I don't deal with game modes designed to toy with people who have an issue with F.O.M.O. It's a pure waste of time having people run something numerous times that leaves a lot of players dissatisfied and some angry. The messed up part is that they had some of you guys believe they were "improving" the F.O.M.O by adding more ways to collect a lot more duplicates and filler loot.

    • There is no such thing as true RNG in Destiny all of the drop algorithms are tunable by Bungie. All the RNG does is drop you into a particular sample space whats there is decided by Bungie!

        It goes in runs, depending on whatever rotation Bungie has on offering. Just wait a day or two & try again.

        Other people point it out, but what you'll notice if you pay attention is that everybody seems to have rolls that they get frequently, but those rolls are different in every case. You could make the argument that bungie just decided to make certain rolls more common for each person individually, or that they [i]somehow[/i] have an algorithm to figure out which specific roll you want and make it so it doesn't drop for you, but I think that's a bit of a stretch. Like, it's possible that the perks are weighted, but given the difference in each players experience on which ones are weighted and how heavily, I think it's more likely that people are getting unlucky and cognitive biases are doing the rest.

        • Sure there are certain drop tables; but I’ve never seen the perk combos you’ve been getting . Does that mean each account has a different table assigned ?

          Yes & its confirmed because: Bungie once dropped a patch that said they corrected the RNG of perks on master VoG weapons.

          Many many Elsie’s rifle and haven’t seen a Keep Away/Head Seeker. I’ve gotten many duplicate rolls of various other combos, but I don’t think Bungie wants that wep to role with those perks.

          • Bungie have said they aren't weighted differently, but theres not really a solid way to prove/disprove their stance

            • [quote] Or is it time I went out and touched grass? 😂[/quote] I think every Destiny player needs to go outside and touch grass at this point lol. But for what feels like 80% of my rolls, I’ve gotten harmony on mountaintop

              • My Recluse rolls = Attrition + (x) 👈 Nothing happens by ‘chance’ in computer code…everything is ‘scripted’. Everything. 🤖 That’s why Club 49 is…really no good…🤨 Ease springs! 🫡 Club 49er
