Stance Drop Rates Too Low (Or Why The Rng Gods Have Forsaken Us)

[kasalaba]

I have been looking for some stance mods for a while. And let me just say. Most of them I got from trading. The drop rates are impossible. I run more than a week straight the same survival mission just hoping to get it. And there are these two or three a holes that either want a ton of platinum to give it or a full Rhino prime set and a coffee to trade. I am sorry but this is just wrong. DE should do something about it. Because lets be honest, you can't enjoy you new shiny melee weapon if it doesn't have a stance on it.

If I may shamelessly promote my own thread, here's what I think will make a difference with mods and RNG.

I think only 1 type of stances is too rare...the Single Sword ones'


Single Swords are your first weapon type...yet finding a stance for them and thus learning more about stances before you move on to other weapons won't happen for most new players.

Kind of a disappointment.

I've been hunting for crimson dervish for weeks. SO MANY MIMAS MISSIONS

 

Never got it.

 

Although the other day, I'm just doing some invasion and I find a gnashing payara.

 

I transmute in hope of maybe getting crimson dervish, I got a pointed wind.

 

I have 3 iron phoenix.

 

I have 2 crushing ruin.

 

I have 2 tranquil cleave.

 

Still no dervish.

 

RNG makes it so you never get what you're looking for.

 

Edit: Also, can't wait to try and get gleaming talon.

I've being trying to get the grim fury stance mod.  I've kept a tally of how many powerfists I've killed in trying to get it(I was bored and I hate rng, especially faux computer rng).  139 so far, thats since I've been counting, the total number is higher.  They've only dropped mods 4 times and I think they were just sentinel mods.  I cant say specifically if there is a pattern or not but they dropped twice in two different maps, each time two powerfist dropped mods reasonably close to one another.  If the pattern plays out I will have to kill roughly another 40 for another mod drop.
