    The Drops are governed by RNG. Destiny used the same system and is why some people got the Gally very early on and others didn't get it for a year.
    Sarcasm bruh. Google it.

    I would atleast like them myself so i could judge for myself if they are crap or not.

    Midas drops in the darkzone. It's got like a 5 chance per named guy so no need to focus on one single boss.
    I farmed entire DZ. From 1 to 6 with high scavenging and low scavenging. Still nothing.

Anyway, it is a literally piece of junk. it looks ugly as hell and one look at those talents ... yikes. just yikes. The ONLY people carrying THAT hunk of junk are living wet dreams of trying to look like a cheesy gang banger.
    Seriously just die. Nah jokes aside i would just love to have an collection of all named weapons. If they are crap or not doesnt matter to me.

    I got my Caduceus from elite farming before it was fixed. Only dropped also once.

    The good this is that all named weapons have bad stats and talents so they are crap anyway.
    I would like to be the judge of that. Right now there is no way for me to try stuff out.

    I am almost level 99 in the DZ and haven't even got one named weapon drop. Still never use any exploit or glitch just to get one. RNG is not nice to me but that's how it is sometimes.
    Makes thing easy then isnt it? Since nothing dropped then nothing would have to be rolled back. Did u even understand the post? I really HATE exploiting. But this is getting frustrating.

    I feel your pain slightly. I learned about BK within the last hour before it was patched lol, I farmed the heck out of him and got 2 Caduceus'. And then on my first trip into the DZ with some buddies I got 2 Midas'. I thought wow this is awesome. It's been all downhill from there.

    All I get now is 163 gear drops. No weapons, and definitely no named weapons. I just collect the phoenix credits now and break everything down in hopes of getting some awesome blueprints down the line.

    11D 16H 0M.. not a single "named" drop.. i got one midas from a friend who got 4 of it.. as well as my M1A HE (which is quite crappy compared to my purple one) so i havent got any named weapon in this game AT ALL..


    but needless to say.. they are just prerolled versions of normal HE that you can also get as a normal roll .. no "named talents" no exceptional Talents , no nada.. just ordinary HE with some crappy rolls.. (or some rolls the devs thoight that they mightbe good but turned out that they are useless..)
    so no, not worth it and definitely no farmable.. they can drop anywhere..

    Well, if you want a named weapon drop, play with me. When playing with my boy, he's gotten:
    BK, no farm, he got Caduceus.
    5 Midas in DZ
    Right after the dailies started, I was soloing the GA, got to the first boss (Phoenix, I think?), and he joined me mid-fight. We down the boss, I get an HE performance mod, he gets a high roll, balanced HE M1A.

    I'd say, the named weapons aren't that good. First named weapon I really wanted was the Tenebrae. After I got it, I put it away in favor of a purple M1A which I used up to a couple of weeks ago. The only named weapon I've gotten as a drop is the Midas, and just one, but again, I put it away for something else. It's not a bad weapon, it is just that there are better drops out there.

    But if you just want to collect the named weapons, I get your frustration.

    Sorry you haven't been lucky with the RNG. I've had three MIDAS drop, but deconstructed them as they have always been worse than what I was using at the time. Then again, I haven't had any more of these cool weapons drop since 1.1, and I've put a lot of hours into the DZ to go from 53 to 78, but such is life. No biggie for me.

    Good luck and hopefully you'll get lucky with drops soon!!

    I didn't say useless, I said terrible. They pigeon hole you into a specific play style and they have the same stats and mods that other high ends have, just set in stone when they drop. Some of them don't even match each other and it's like the devs were throwing darts at a board when they decided to make them.
