    I feel your pain Yesterday I farmed the shiAt out of Providence Targeted Area. 6 control points (4 first, then 2 more later), multiple activities, two rogue agents encounters, two Settlement blockades and NOT a SINGLE useful item RNGesus hates me

    Edit : By the way, i play oh Heroic with 5 directives on. And still - NOT A SINGLE useful item

    I play on Challenging and do CP4s, the problem is mostly on the randomness of the affixes more than their values.

    Especially chests and backpacks: the talents should be freely interchangable, only the affixes should have restrictions on how many can be recalibrated.

    same here, im playing on challenge with all directives on or on heroic and do cp´s and missions, it doesnt matter. only exotic´s seem to drop more on heroic. with low rolls ^^

    That's a pretty poor piece to what I have been getting, I reactivated the manhunt yesterday opening up all the CP's to farm yesterday, did the area that had providence for a few hours as the Hyenas kept taking the CP's back and I got some great pieces, loads dropped with the yellow up arrow for higher atts and I got a couple of chests that are better overall than I had, 270 ish SHD level too, cant remember atm. so not like its early days in getting loot for me.

    Heroic global, 1 directive yesterday.

    Maybe I just got lucky but good bits are out there

    I know, and what does it tell you that I've not found anything better farming for 1 week and a half?

    Loot is broken, I couldn't really care any less that you get luckier on a regular basis, this is what we have to put up with.
    Maybe those like you who get better rolls wonder why we complain, well, this is why.

    Ok.

    What gear have you got now, are your pieces all worse than the vendor pic you showed?

    Seems you go in a stress when someone mentions they get something you are not, I cant control what loot drops for me, I was just explaining I had got some good stuff yesterday.
    I have also found a good new chest piece with unbreakable today that can replace the one I use in the raid, Its not a brilliant piece, 14.7% WD middle of the road HSD, offline so not 100% sure and it had a blue att I change to max CHC. Providence piece so works well with unbreakable for the raid, before I had one with 1 red , 1 blue 1 yellow so was just a make do bit as I hadn't found much with unbreakable on it.
    But like I said, good drops are out there for some, even if they aren't god rolls.
    Pretty sure its not just me either so it cant be 'broke' for everyone

    It's broken because there must be a mechanic to alleviate the randomness.

    They used the Optimization station in TD1, now there's nothing: you either drop an item with all the rolls you need minus 1, with at least decent rolls on what you need, or you're screwed.
    In TD1 we were also able to recalibrate 2 affixes on classified gear, and that was increadibly easier to come by.

    I do know what you mean, its not like I get great stuff all the time I get loads of crap and frustrating pieces too, example with the unbreakable piece, today is the first day I have found one with 2 reds on it that were decent enough to roll another one onto it.
