Ok I've seen a lot of gjallahorn posts today about xur selling it. I hate to burst people's bubble but some of us will NEVER EVER GET IT. Everyone has their own personal loot tables and some people like myself can't earn it because it's simply not there to drop. Same reason I never get the pocket infinity or sga. Those bounties are not meant to be for me. Everyone has that one weapon (or weapons in my case) they can't get even if it's not gally. But those people are stupid because xur has sold everything else. They easily could have gotten their weapons by now. Including thunderlord. (another weapon I don't have until now)
The same is not true for gjallahorn though. Even though xur did sell it once, I actually have a life and couldn't grind out to level 30 in under a week after launch to buy it from him. The same is true for a lot of players out there. There was just no way I was gonna grind out 3 characters in time for that.
Now because I didn't do that that means my weapon collection should remain incomplete? No it shouldn't and this is why xur needs to sell it. I shouldn't have to make a new Xbox live account to get a gun in this game. This is absolutely the worst reward system designed ever.
Now I'm trying really hard not to sound like a whiney b***h but unless you know the struggle you just don't understand. I love this game and there are plenty of other exotics to use and I do use them but getting people on lfg has never been harder for me lately and it's all because of gjallahorn.
Can I do crota without gjallahorn? Absolutely I've done it several times already. But lfg scrubs don't give a damn and I just think that's bs. They want to finish faster. Well I want to start the raid faster. Takes me well over an hour to assemble a team sometimes which is ridiculous.
All I'm asking for is that bungie fixes our loot tables so that everyone has a fair chance of getting it. And to those who say I do have a chance already, you're wrong because if that were true, not only would I have gally, but sga and pocket infinity would dropped for me as well. I've gotten 8 missives now and it's always thorn, invective and bad juju every single time.
I guess when the patch comes out, maybe I'll get it then since I'm usually one of the top 3 players in crucible but damn that's a long time to take to get a weapon.
To the people who will attack me for this, go f yourselves, I know what's going on here. I know what rng is. But the rng doesn't work if certain things are missing from people's loot tables.
Edit 1: seems a lot of people think I need to slave away at this game for thousands upon thousands of hours. I played this game more than skyrim (which had about 300+ hours in it) let me tell you why I don't need over 1000 hours. It's simple. Christmas noobs. They have all gotten the gjallahorn right away so why do I need to put in an unrealistic amount of work for this? That said, I still have put in a decent chunk of time into this game. I've done everything there is to do (minus how). But at least when the patch comes out, crucible will be worth playing again.
Edit 2: thanks for the replys but now I really don't care anymore. With bungie patching the rng and crucible, I actually have a fair chance at getting it. To those who say my grimoire is not high enough. First of all grimoire is a joke. It's a placeholder for the story in the game and by no means a validation method of how much I play this game. Just because I gotta play crucible a whole bunch to get bonuses that don't really benefit me a whole lot doesn't mean I don't play enough. I do play crucible but it gets frustrating from time to time especially when the noob with the .07 kd gets the gally. What kind of message is that supposed to send?

I'm a Christmas noob and I don't have the almighty ghorn
-
Btw i haven't seen anyone correct you so Gjallarhorn*
-
I have every exotic... i guess all the weapons were "meant for me" lmao
-
Sees he says "can't get pocket infinity" *stops reading*
-
Wrong
-
Agreed. This game has it's work cut out for it
-
Tldr loot tables dont exist like you think they do.
-
Hey man, you know that if you aren't getting the Infinity or SGA bounties, there's a way to force them up. It's a common glitch for a lot of people where they see the same 3 bounties. Just accept the bounties for the other guns and when you're holding all the ones it normally offers, the others will show up

Edited by Sweeper Bot: 5/13/2015 11:38:05 AMRNG.... They used one that was invented in the 70's, not a predetermined loot table... I stopped reading when you claimed that everything is predetermined, it's not. RNG is love, RNG is life

That's why I deleted 2 - 32 and started over. 2 weeks later I have 2 gallys 3 fatebringer
-
Mathematically, every gun is in everyone's loot table. Some of them just have such an exponentially small chance of getting it that the odds of it dropping seem nearly impossible
-
No such thing as personal loot tables that lack some rewards. I dont think you fully understand how rng works
-
Oh look another gjallarhorn thread
-
My friend used to think he would never get a gjallarhorn as well. He did raids with our fireteam, both crota and vog, 3 times almost every week and he has also been playing since beta. After watching every person in our group but him he grabbed it from a crucible match. It will drop you just have yet to be lucky enough to get it
-
Another post full of jibber jabber. Get over your self if it drops it drops. People like you ruin the destiny community.

Edited by RORYWAN13: 5/13/2015 11:13:50 AMI'm not reading all that shit. My Ghorn dropped from a nightfall, one i solo'd. I didn't earn it. It's a random drop. And I've been playing since Alpha, it only dropped last week. There are no "loot tables" that's just silly talk.
-
The only thing I think has a loot table are the raids. But not individual gaurdians. But my elusive exotic is icebreaker :D
-
I'm sorry, but there is absolutely no way people, 'have different loot tables', that's just not true. Besides necro, I have every exotic and I didn't buy a single one from Xur, as do many, many of my friends. So, according to you, my 'loot table', apparently covers all exotics then? I've bought duplicates off Xur, but literally everything has dropped for me. RNG is RNG and tbh, I wish people would stop all this superstitious BS. Loot tables, sticking around at the end of raids, certain emblems for greater odds of better drops - all make NO difference whatsoever.
-
RNG does not equal Loot Tables. Who the -blam!- started this loot table rumor?
-
False, its rng and there is always a possibility you can receive it. Maybe Zûr wont sell it but individual players dont have loot tables. I have recieved every exotic/raid weapon in the game without Zûr
-
Your own statement contradicts your theory, Xur has sold the Gally before so you could've owned it
-
OP I agree with most everything you stated. Can't get that goddam gun to drop. I have all other PS exotics besides ghorn and Necrochasm and it just WILL NOT DROP.

Edited by hastalamuerteg: 5/13/2015 10:57:35 AMI wouldn't be mad if xur sells it Actually it will be awesome having all your team mates with gally f*ing the bosses Raids will be fast and without problems Swordbear will be amazing with crota kneeling when you ask lol'

Edited by GX: 5/13/2015 10:50:27 AMi have a gally but i wish xur would sell gjallarhorn so everyone has one and bosses will get owned :D

Statistically it is possible to play 2000 hours and not have it drop. RNG is kind of like a roulette wheel. This could fall into the gamblers fallacy theory. The probability of red or black coming up each spin is the same. You can equate the numbers on the board to different exotics that could drop. You could go hours or days without a number coming up because the probability is the same each time the wheel spins. So if you play the RNG system expecting to get what you want, roulette is much more rewarding.
