Wish I could be the bearer of good news I also grinded for a 2% module on day 3 now, but after my 110th mission earlier I'm throwing in the towel. I'm constantly getting however drops that are 1% chance and less repeatedly, but somehow never this 2% mod. Not sure if something is up with the system, the company _has_ been proven in court to manipulate their drop rates before and had to pay $9 million. They got away however with $471 million from the scandal. So that's a fact that's hard to overlook.. google Maplestory Nexxon D:

It's called god's punishment for wanting and lust. Desire meter tripping the devil's curse and rngjesus cannot bless you.

Yeah, the company has history, many don't believe the drop rates at all.

At least we're sure the 20% ones aren't being honest, either it's missing 1 or 2 zeroes, or they have the unluckiest playerbase in the world where almost impossible situations like going over 50 times to get one drop are very common and we all should just play the lottery.

The powers of probability and RNG. Hate to say it but I got a 2% drop (stabilizer) on the first run but understand it's still a very rare case. It's a way to keep people playing and grinding/farming but it wasn't meant to be made easy despite players frustrations.

probability, rng and all that jazz its worth nothing when talking about this devs, they can and will touch the drops, after all they made 400 million and only had to pay 10 as punishment, by putting a drop on 0% on their other game.

Yeah the % luck is just a joke, even farming for stuff with 36%, trying to get enzo's code i got 5 times in a row a weapon piece i cared nothing about that was 15%. As frustrating as it is its an incentive to keep players hooked on the game, to keep grinding. If we had all unlockables unlocked on day 1 easy as pie then there would be no reason to keep on playing the game, no goals to achieve.

Games that work with "% drops" have always been controversial because of the low rate of getting rewards, nothing new.

Got 83 hrs in total rn and just got my first ult character piece with a 10% chance, yet there's players claiming they got 1 and even more ult characters crafted with about 50 hours, go figure.

Just bad luck.

I was farming multiple copies of Thunder Cage, the first part has 20% chance, I got 3 copies in the first, third, and sixth try. So, instead of running 15 times the mission, I ran only six times and got all 3 copies.

What you need to think is simple:
If it's 20% then it's 1 in 5, so you run 6 or 7 missions to "guarantee" getting the item. The 2% one? You would need to try 50 times to reach 100%, and then you add some in case you have bad luck, this means run the mission like 60 times to "guarantee" the drop.

This is the main reason why i stop play, if i have to farm for days to get 1 piece to upgrade a gear there is no sense at all. At this point, i go backplay warframe at last i have a ton ♥♥♥♥ of item to sell and trade for new stuff without need to farm. This game was nice, but the farm it's killing it so badly.

Yes, this is a grindy collectaton, this is the game.
Good you aren't playing.

Well if you like it just do it, don't need to reply with "Good you aren't playing". This is the typical reply of a fanboy that can't see the problem even if they put in your face

I got 3 energy reactor bp's at 3% chance when I just wanted the 36% bp. Also got Ultimate Ajax code at 6% when I wanted the crystal cata at 20%. Meanwhile my ultraprecise code breaker drop rate is like 0-1/hr hours since 1.0.2. Rng is rng.

But that's the thing, there's no problem, there's a problem TO YOU, but not a problem in the game. Isn't because you don't like a feature that this feature is a problem. Warframe is exactly the same, highly grindy and a collectaton, to new players is even worse. The difference is that you can drop Prime items to sell for Platinum and purchase other things from players, but it doesn't exclude the fact that Warframe is a grindy collectaton.

By the way, what's the problem with the "Good you aren't playing"? Did I hurt your fragile feelings? You are the one who said stopped playing the game... I'm just saying, it's good that you aren't playing the game, go play another thing, clearly The First Descendant isn't for you.

Well as i told before good for you if you like that style of farm. I just pass over, maybe i will give it a try in future if they will add a way to trade, but for now i don't like the idea of infinite farm. Also that not true about warframe, you could get a new frame in less than few hours of farm, even if you are a newbye. Farm the mod it's another things, forma are easy to get since you drop them and can buy them. As before and as you told, this is my problem that i don't like the game right now. Also it's a nexon game, don't expect a lot of "free improvement"
