    ROBBED! Boss "Prime" Loot Drop Stolen by Glitch

    So after waiting, and waiting, for Capitol Hill to be "invaded" so I can get whatever exotic part the final boss dops, I played the mission flawlessly -- zero deaths/retries -- and saw with my own eyes the orange light beam after I took Prime out with a sniper head shot. There were still a significant amount of enemies to clear, and as I did that the loot drop from Prime disappeared.

    Yes, I have video evidence. It will take a while to upload to YouTube.

    Best I can guess, because I was sprinting from a heavy gunner over that spot, the game decided I wanted to "destruct all". Because on the controller they chose the same controls for "sprint" as destruct. But usually when you destruct you see an indicator that destructing is happening. I just re-watched the video and there was no visual indicator that destruction was underway, but as I ran past (near not directly over) there was the audio indicator which is the same as "you picked this up". But no it is not in my inventory

    I will replay the mission, and if it doesn't drop again I am calling it over. Only so much time to game, and gaming around issues is unacceptable.

    Yes, I just confirmed that if you sprint past loot, it does immediately deconstruct it. I'd call this a bug.

    edit: thought this was for the blueprint but i think it should be the barrel. don't mind me

    *it should just be a gun part (barrel) i dont think we can deconstruct that.
    weird.

    i had the same kind of scare with the chatterbox blueprint, thought some other player somehow took it instead of me when i didnt see anything new in the parts inventory... but i just had to go check the workbench
    Thanks, I will take a look. But The other pieces are in my inventory under "resources". I thought there was still another step after getting the drop from Prime.

    edited my post while you were replying, my bad i thought it was the blueprint but it should be the barrel part (which i thought was impossible to deconstruct). weird.

    No, I just ran thorugh it again and it dropped, and I picked it up and now it is in the "resources" section. Game took it.

    I was worried that since the item dropped and vanished, it wouldn't drop again and I'd be stuck.

    This isn't the first serious glitch I've encountered in this mission.

    I have since tested some more and now I cannot get it to deconstruct sprint a loot pile by sprinting near or over it. I guess it is hit or miss.

    Actually you probably got the stupid exotic pistol component because you deconstructed Liberty, I had to run it twice to get the missing nemesis piece.

    I bet that was a tense half hour. I need to get the last piece, then the blueprint. Its going to be fun pulling the trigger on this gun soon.

    had this disapearing loot myself. (not exotic though but Set Item)
    fought in a boss fight, boss died on an platform, loot dropped directly below me ( could have picked it up instantly but was buissy with a havey comming around a corner.
    after we had won, that particular loot was gone.
