this is the one thing i dont get and should be fixed. why would a colored encoded engram give you a different colored item? if its blue it ought to unlock blue, if its purple, purple. whats the reasoning behind randomizing even that?
That's how I think. I mean, I can see the super rare chance at an item a tier above. Like a "omg you super lucky dog you" kinda thing but as a rule you should get what you see. It really, really sucks when you finally get a purple only for it to decode into a blue.
And I know someone will chime in with "um, but yeah, Purples are
supposed to be rare and hard to get. Bungie have a 10 year plan *pushes up glasses* and you can't expect to have a max level super cool character so soon." Well that's all well and good dead Bungie defender but why not just lower the drop rate on purples? Make it so a purple is really rare (but guaranteed purp) and Exotic is ungodly rare drop.
This game has no humour!.
Oh it knows. It sees our plight and is laughing at us. The
game is The Darkness.
