I know where you're coming from. I came into a game randomly, died once before the game ended, and got a legendary. I've also had incredible games stunted by getting no loot. I've also done middle of the line games and gotten nothing or decent items. That being said, I think it's fair, but fair for the universe, not necessarily from the MVP point of view. I like that it's random because it keeps people enjoying even if they're bad, and that is good for gaming, good for Destiny. I think really what's happening is that you have had bad luck with Crucible and you're going to notice when something doesn't go your way than when it does. If you really want to affect change, you should keep track of your next 20 crucible matches. Show your stats, the outcome of the match, and the prizes. Screenshot them even. I think you'll see some more balance or you'll prove the imbalance. But keep in mind, minor imbalance isn't unfair, that's truly random. [b]Also, some imbalance in general may be by design. If you're averaging 2.5kd like you say, that means you are burning through crucible bounties, faction rep, and crucible marks and you will have more opportunities for loot than those that suck.[/b]
