I know everyone is like me and waiting for the inevitable nerf that is coming for the 3 of coin due to the exploitation and abuse of the item by the impatient and the shortsighted.
The obvious choice for the nerf would be reducing the number of coins received every purchase and lower the drop rate.
However after playing last night on a few Heroic strikes I thought of a solution that makes everyone happy.
- Bungie still gets to fix the exploit
- People still get to use the 3 of Coin
- The drop chance is not affected
- The rate at which people get exotics is reduced, but not to the point where the coin is worthless.
Its pretty simple actually.
Just have the coin award an exotic during [b][i]Missions/Strikes only[/i][/b] and then make it to where the coin then awards the possible item once the mission is [i][b]OVER[/b][/i] rather than when the Ultra dies. If an ultra is killed during the mission the game rolls the dice for the player once the mission is concluded.
- No coin spamming
- No exploitation
- No rate reduction
- Used as originally intended
Its simple, easy and it fixes the problem without destroying the item. What do you guys think?

Or just give it a five minute cooldown. There are not many missions or strikes you can hammer out in five minutes that have ultras, and no one is going to sit down and do nothing for four minutes at a time to farm.
