Loot Tables need to be Adjusted

This isn't just an engram thing. If you're Level 20, the lowest level item you should get is a 18 Green, if you're playing content for you. If you're 24, the lowest item should be a 20 Green. This goes for Engrams. See, the thing is that Engrams are already rare. If you get a Legendary Engram, it should be 100% Guaranteed that you [b]at least[/b] get a Legendary, with a chance to get an Exotic. When your drop rate is 1/250, and then you compound this with a 1/4 chance for a Legendary and 1/16 chance for an Exotic, you can see how we are understandably upset when a Legendary Engram drops a fricken Green, or even a downgrade Blue. I know how you want to force us to get gear through the vendors using tokens, but if we farm things, it should give us the things we worked hard for. Giving us Greens and Downgrade Blues for Legendary Engrams needs to stop. We need to stop getting crap greens for completing a Crucible match. You need to give [u]everyone[/u] one item [u]before[/u] you give [u]anyone[/u] two items in any game mode. More loot should be given to players that worked harder. Less loot needs to be given to idlers/campers. The loot tables really need to be rebalanced, or you're going to lose people over this fact.

  • Funny you should mention a chance at an exotic. My first legendary engram was an exotic. I was so stoked when the engram dropped. I could barely contain my excitement long enough to finish the strike I was on. As soon as it finished, I made a beeline for the cryptarch. Got an exotic. I sat there, staring at the screen speechless. I was stoked. I had just hit 20 about 10 minutes before I started that strike, and already a piece of top-end gear. Then I go to equip it. My dreams were shattered. I play a Titan and the armor was for a hunter. Utter garbage. In face. I'd say probably about 25% of the legendary engrams I've gotten have been for another class. Without a trade system, that maies them fundamentally worthless. I don't want to have to play 3 different characters just so my drops aren't wasted. I know there's someone out there with a hunter and some high end Titan gear who'd happily swap armor with me, but Bungie decided against such a basic MMO feature for what reason god only knows. of the remaining 10ish legendary engrams, all but one have been rare quality items. The only legendary I've acquired to date is my shotgun, which while outstanding, doesn't make up for the fact that I've been capped at 23 because every piece of gear that I've had drop has had a substantially lower Light value than my current armor. And I honestly wouldn't care if farming Vanguard rep wasn't so, so brutally painful.
