are stalker beacons messed up?

[xX0SolarHawk0Xx]

they work, but when u kill stalker(12 times in a row, so all my credits and ducats wasted) he dropped only heavy impact, blind justice and NO bps at all, where on the other hand, when he naturally spawns EVERY TIME ITS A DREAD(got 34 now)i hope they add war and broken war to the sortie missions asap, cause stalker's a greedy biatch

[Calwon5]

RNG

[NekroArts]

Stalker is one of those enemies that have the worst drop rates for its loots.

[mrrobotto67]

Thats RNG ... its all good with the beacons

[(XBOX)BULLS 0N PAR4DE]

Looks like it is working just fine. They only spawn the stalker not any good rewards

[Berserkerkitten]

Don't despair. I'd hate for the war on RNG to leave you broken.

I see what you did there >w> lol 

 

I got a bunch to try and help my friend get the hate but I don't know if they have changed the drop rate any 

[(XBOX)SlohLane]

Get on my level, been waiting years for Despair!

its the single last weapon I need too have gotten all but founders and closed beta gear!

and now the stalker never shows up without beacons for me. Even though I have hundreds of marks.

[ZaneCyber]

What we did in my clan, long ago :

4 players reunites themselves and buy 10 beacons each, everyone use their beacons.

Instant full loot at the end.

[(XBOX)SlohLane]

I have a member in mine that buys 10 everytime and runs them with me just too show his gratitude for the help I have give. Him.

i can say we are both disheartened by the non existence of despair for me now.

[Vohim]

i had stalker spawn for me after 9 months of not spawn and he only dropped Blind Justice and  an ammo pack  so its not  just a beacon thing its stalker having crappy loot

[(XBOX)SlohLane]

The what stalker pack is 800plat for a reason I guess.

rng and it is possible that his drop rate is different with becans but im just taking a guess here. Ive done 30 becans and got one dread with a group and then a few days later ran into him and got dispare.  so becans may have a different drop chance.

From some sources.  Stalker has a 50% chance to drop a BP.  When it drops a BP, 75% of the time it will be Dread.  The other four weapon BPs have a 5.5% chance to drop, and finally, a 2% chance to drop the Scimitar Engines BP

Today was a special day for me.  Did 4 Beacon shares, I have had 36 Blue print drops over me entire time playing of about a year, 2 engines, 5 war, 2 broken war ,3 despairs, and the rest Dreads.  Never had Hate until my 37th BP drop today.

Same boat. 

I also strongly believe beacons have a different drop rate. Save for a few lucky people, it feels like a gimmick to me. 

Over 40 runs today alone and only crap.

The only thing a beacon does is force a spawn, instead of letting RNG decide if Mr. Stalker will pop up.

Except for dread the rest seem ok to me

Only 1 beacon can be used in a single mission.

 

So you're either lying or it wasn't like that the first week they were released.

[Soulden]

2 years in, all I gotten from him is Dread blueprints...There is no way I'm giving in for the beacon bait.

His Tenno name must had been Rngesus Trollol.

@DiePainPain Such a disciple of the Salt.

*sigh*

Instead of being so prompt to dish out accusations, read between the lines : "At the end of the farming session". We did 40 beacons back to back using our dear E-Prime as a Cobaye.

 I also find it amusing that the beacon people are like "WTF I'm not getting anything". It took me hundreds of pointless boss runs over a 2 year run to finally get the despair.

I have sold over 100 dread bps (and many other crap), and only ever gotten 1 hate and no despair. That is ridiculous. Even if I get despair on my next try it will be less than a 0.3% drop rate for despair for me.

I think he meant they ran 40 missions together and used their 40 beacons.

Slash Dashed from General Discussion to Players helping Players.

If you think there is a bug in the drop tables, use the appropriate PC Bugs section.

Good one MOD. LOL

You did not say "at the end of the farming session."

Word your post better next time.
