Coming into Destiny from five years of playing World of Warcraft and playing Diablo 3 at launch, which was a colossally wretched loot experience, I have to wonder how many of people expecting 100% gear drops from raid bosses played a proper MMO before Destiny.
Here's an example-I went, once, five months in WoW without evening [i]seeing[/i] a chance at a weapon replacement on my main character. Raided every week, 10 and 25 man raids, more than one raid. Didn't even see a chance to get a weapon upgrade. Sure, it's frustrating to run a raid and not get any gear, but that's how raiding is in actual, proper MMOs. (Worse, until recently WoW didn't have personal loot, so even if your desired gear dropped, you were also at the mercy of whatever loot system your raid was running.) You run the raid constantly for the hopes of new gear to drop. It's the carrot to keep you going.
I'll eventually raid (once I suck less at jumping) and I'll admit that if all I get is shards -the Mouldering shard system DOES seem broken and in need of work-I'll go "dammit" to myself and try again next time. That 's how raiding works.
