S5alad Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Well, they do. However, after over 40 runs, I have only gotten two blueprints, both the same, so really only one. Even one drop every 10 runs would be reasonable, but at this rate it seems impossible to get anything to drop. It's very disheartening to need a frame and be grinding the same boss all day to repeatedly get alloy plate or feildron with the only reward. Please fix DE. This isn't fun.

Its not suppose to be easy to get a frame, its all about luck, i farmed the jackyl at least 60 times before i actually got all the pieces, you'l just have to deal with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoxile Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Fix what? It works just as intended. RNG is is just as random as any RNG is supposed to be. Have your tried in a full team? People say they have better luck when in full teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mecron Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I got full ember in 3 runs :P And while I wanted to get latron prime pieces, I got full frost prime in 5 runs. It's all about being lucky but still, RNG is too random, you could at least have a higher chance of getting something after you exceeded some limit.

Jeraggerjack Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I reckon a token system would probably be better. The RNG is getting pretty old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S5alad Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 I reckon a token system would probably be better. The RNG is getting pretty old. We already have a token system, it's called CREDITS. There's no need to over complicate the loot system, merely make credits more useful. You can use them to purchase blueprints from the dojo, as well as from the market. Why not assign a high price to warframe component blue prints? You'll still have to grind out the mats, but it will make it a lot easier than fighting the same individual mob over and over again, knowing what you want will probably not drop no matter how many runs you do.

QuiteCrazy Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Man, its RNG, i did over 100 run on Ruk to get Ember and still didn't get system :( You are just a little unlucky, it's not time for you to cry yet :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoxile Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I reckon a token system would probably be better. The RNG is getting pretty old. Meh... Token systems... Here's what I think of token systems. I understand their benefit. They are to help casual players get what they want. But they get stale fast. Like Iron Kids Bread left out in the sun. I will use GW2 as an example. The dungeons in that game rewarded you with a set number of tokens for completing a quest in them. So I added up how many tokens was needed to get the weapons, and armor I wanted. Then I calculated how many times I needed to do each dungeon to get the tokens required. Once I discovered all I had to do was run the same dungeon 10-15 times I KNEW I could get what I wanted, and then I lost all ambition to do it. With RNG I don't know if I can, or can't do it. So the only way for me to find out is to go try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most players, I believe, would enjoy some specific way to get their gear. Without a doubt, we would all like to see some more creative ways to grind, such as actual quests, series of missions, and/or even specific challenges with set rewards.

It wouldn't bother me if there are all sorts of alternative ways to obtain new gear. As long as RNG farming is not completely removed I can live.

It would be awesome if some players were collecting tokens for a BP and had part of what they needed just drop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishworshipper Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I got Rhino after about 10 runs... RNG is RNG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beelzebubbles Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 It took me like 40-60 runs to get Ember systems to finally drop. We are trying to help some other friends get it and it's taking just as long. We just did six runs on Ruk today and it didn't drop any blueprints at all. HATE.
