5 hours of scintillant farm, got 1 XD <3

Recommended Posts

I have been farming for this sadistic resource for 5 hours both with the 2 bounties and searching in all kind of different vaults, and I finally got 1 XDD 1 in 5 hours of farm. 2 yesterday night atlest, now I need to farm for 10 more hours to get another 2 for that 1 Xaku parts that needs it. And I'm not even done with the other things that need it and even father wants scintillant for tokens... 

Why? Just why? Who did the test for these things?

3 hours of doing the first bounty where the scint reward is 'common'. Failed the bonus every time, so I wouldn't get uncommon materials.

I now have 4 Xaku parts (the supposed 'uncommon', and only 2 scints. There has to be an easier way to farm these stupid things.

Last night I spent over 2 hours doing vaults and never saw a single one 'floating around'.

I just recently saw one of these buggers fly in the vaults, did what people told me in terms of looting them. Did nothing, it just flew somewhere and poofed off like the wisp.. Only got 1 so far myself

Dude thats not part of Scintillant. lol You are farming the wrong thing. Scintillant is a resources from bounties rewards or if not hiding in vaults somewhere with RNG of .5%.

Wait are they like Wisp on Deimos instead? humm odd. well time to flay around

You should do some research before claiming it is wrong... Already seen these on multiple runs, but getting them to actually drop is the thing people struggle with now.

Anyone remember Atmo Systems being a 10% drop on Fortuna?

I'm getting eerie flashbacks with this stuff.

Ugh. 

I did that stupid bounty phase over and over and over. Counted over 40 times to get two drops of Atmo Systems for rank up which was more in line with a 5% drop chance than 10%. 

Also have done a lot of Profit Taker and had it drop from her I think once. 

But I had like Repeller Systems coming out the ears and enough gyros to stack to low orbit in Venus before I had a single Atmo System drop.

i just finished my second 12 hour run this includes vaults not a single spawn in the vault btw.and common drop my ass u know what i got every single run endo at the end of my session i had almost 20k endo. for the time i have spent farming for just this 1 resource my time has been wasted so much there is nothing they can do to make up for this kinda bs. btw they need to at least try to make up for this kinda gross oversight.

They already said that drops were too low across the playerbase so lets wait.

Got 1 on my 2nd bounty so you're just unlucky.

Yeah hotfix coming today, they meant for them to be acquired at a rate and acquisition method similar to Cetus Wisp, but it isn't working in practice how they wanted.

I've run it more times than I can count and can't even get enough Gyromags to drop to get to rank 2, much less the Atmos.

There's only two grinds I will give DE endless guff over, Khora and Systems, everything else I can put up with, but those two grinds are just the worst.

Yeah locking syndicate progression behind that kind of rng is really bad and tbh I care so little about Khora's theme already. I want all the frames, but I don't think I care enough about her to pay plat and I really don't want to grind through that to get her parts... she may just stay out of my inventory until she becomes a prime one day years down the road and I can just relic farm her idk. 

Most frustrating thing I have encountered since my return was getting the atmo systems for rank up, I know for some people it was the Repeller or the Gyro though.

The worst part is that you can technically buy them with standing...after you hit rank 3 which is about TWO RANKS PAST THE POINT WHERE THAT WOULD BE NEEDED.

I don't know what DE is/was smoking with that decision...

Right? It's like the worst tease ever... and when you finally do reach that rank, apart from atmo you spend to reach hand, due to rng you are usually swimming in the other two by then, so it's not like you need them anymore. Most people I've talked to manage to max out on all the Repeller Systems they needed before they got enough Atmo and Gyro to even reach the point where they needed Repeller to sacrifice. 

And it also makes no sense because you do need Repeller later to sacrifice for highest ranks, but now I can just go buy with standing from the syndicate the thing I need to... sacrifice to rank up with the syndicate? What kind of nonsense is this?

yeah , I am not even gonna bother.

must have done 20 vaults, the only drop (onlly 1 , singular in 2 days) i got was from a tier 2 bounty. and i was not the only one that was surprised to see it

i expect them to fix this, but i really dont think i can get myself to keep doing it.

Even the atmosphere of the drift and claustrohobic caves makes me want to leave as soon as possible. might be in my mind , but i really dont want to stay on that fleshscape.it absolutely feels like a rendition of hell.The colours , the lights and the ever present enemies are too suffocating.

 

I will absolutely not be going back once i get everything. Again , it might just be me , and the game design might look great to others , i do not wish to argue on that point.

I’m just gunning for Helminth at this point, anything requiring scint I’m just gonna hold off on for a month or so.

Feels broken

Same here. I just want Helminth and then I want to go back to playing other content.
