    NEw GE classified caches are....

    a definite improvement but things still are just really off as it relates to getting items. I spent 9 3k caches just to finally get my last piece of striker so at least I have one set of something. Now I have been working on Defense and buying 3k caches only here to try and get that kit. To date I have 8 holsters, 4 gloves, 1 backpack, and one mask. No kneepads and no harness. That is 42,000 GE points and I am not close to getting a full set. I have tried buying these early, late, middle of the day, in threes, single and wait a while. You name it.

    Now I realize that the RNG is totally broken and beyond repair obviously so can you guys please figure a way for us to get pieces here? It becomes past frustrating and totally demoralizing to grind 25 plus legendary missions and I 'm still sitting here needing two pieces. I am really losing the will to play here........

    I sure can relate to your pain. It took me forever to get all my classified pieces. I was completely burned out on the game. I stayed with it and am now enjoying buying caches I do not need in order to find pieces with better rolls on them. I am also glad they give Div Tech since my main goal nowadays is to min/max every piece of gear I have. Stick with it and good luck and know that even though it is still a grind, it is an improvement from the "old" days.

    Bad luck doesn't mean bad RNG. I completed no less than four sets this weekend: Striker, Nomad, Banshee and Reclaimer. That last Reclaimer piece came from one of the caches I bought for 2500 PCX even. What are the odds of that?

    Just keep grinding. Or if you really want to increase your odds: play Amherst Legendary with other people and trade gear. That said: kneepads have been my nemesis too; of most sets I am/was missing the kneepads. Then again: I suppose if you ask around there's plenty of people who get only kneepads.

    I'm still hoping for that final Striker holster. I already have complete sets of:

    Nomad
    D3-FNC
    Final Measure
    Firecrest
    Predators Mark
    Banshee
    Reclaimer
    Tactician

    Bad Luck does equal bad RNG, at least for this game.

    That is nothing. I opened at least 30 D3-FNC caches, I got all peices except for the gloves. In fact I have all the peices on 3 different Characters (except for gloves) and probably enought to outfit 4 others. I got to the point where I do not expect to ever see the gloves. I honestly have been scrapping the peices I open from these caches lately. And if I ever do get the gloves, it will be anti-climatic, because of the total absurdity of this supposed RNG stupidity.

    Classified gear isn't supposed to be easy to get. Otherwise it wouldn't be classified.

    True, but not supposed to be impossible to get either. Think about it, the statistically speaking, if the drop chance is 6% per engagement. That 6% is like an average, and for everytime you get a classified, statistically the average means that someone else won't. Not saying that to different people are tied together, but there are players who have never seen a house unless it has been used on them. Meanwhile someone else has been destroying them cause he gets too many.

    I understand what you are saying. However, since you opened that can up for me I will add to this that I now have 126 pieces of classified gear, and yet the ONLY singe set of six I have is Striker. And that I still only have one of two items there. I don't mind grinding for gear but this has gone past the point of insanity, and I am not alone on this point.
