The drop rate for these Limited Edition Gold Foil Weapons are HORRIBLE

[Zero]

Why make a cool feature when it literally drop from what it seems at a 1% drop rate
Yes I am aware these are supposed to be rare but all I'm saying is that maybe it'd be nice to have one guaranteed shiny drop from the attuned weapon you chose from completing wave 50 Legend there is no reason why this shouldn't be the case because currently the way it is Legend is the best way to farm these but when you finally get your "SHINY" it will be the most god awful drop and gets turn to shards pls change the way you reward peoples time

The shiny is ultimately cosmetic outside of the theoretically best edge transit. Said cosmetic is guaranteed from just doing the quests from Arcite and the drouble perk property is ultimately compensated from by having increased drop rate in Legend + increase drop chance of what you want through attunement.

They're suppose to be rare. I don't think that they're something that Bungie intends you to chase god rolls on.

It's RNG. I've gotten 3 or so just from a non-legend 50 wave run.

[R A Z E R]

Just RNG, they are supposed to be low drop rate.. I had like 2 of them to drop on wave 50 normal.

why even make it an option with a limited time event that will go away these are like pseudo adepts
I dont think making farming the hardest option of the new mode ton get to the end and get railed with garbage is not what bungle intended when they said in the dev stream that this would be menagerie equivalent rewards clearly a net benefit to everyone when i say legend wave 50 should be rewarding at the end

To get people to play the game and give the hard core players something new and shiny to chase.

There is literally no difference between the normal and shiny versions, if you got a normal god roll then use it, the shiny only allows you to have 2 god rolls in 1 if you get really lucky.

The event is staying, the shiny weapons are going. they are literally intended to be rare limited edition weapons, if they go it is not the end of the world, you can still get the base versions of the weapons.

right up until destiny3 comes out

I have no idea why they didn't just make it a skin. Obviously. so we need to play more to get a god roll + skin.

Making it a skin wouldn't really fix much as you would be doing the same thing then but for those skins..

I've opened about 200 chests and I haven't gotten a single shiny weapons to drop, the drop rate for them are way too low.
