450 chase is a bust outside of Keplar and normal crucible.
Meaning when you hit 450... I'm halfway there, but I did the research...
Everything ISN'T Tier 5.
You need PRIMES to get Tier 5s.
And anyone on the chase knows how ****in' inconsistent those drops are.
This is the solution... & it might not be applicable to me, it obviously isn't right now:
[b]At 450 the Prime drop rates need to go way up. 50%?[/b]
Here's some tips/things I learned in the meantime.
1. If you get a Tier 5 drop with a good/great roll... keep it until you get your better replacement.
Because in many loot pools it's not realistically farm'able.
2. Save your conquests, or at least the last 2... I made this error and did them all. I don't regret it though... because I got lucky, the loot wasn't borderline I have it all. To that point... be mindful of those drops... I wouldn't trash them unless they're absolute trash... because of the hidden luck stat and the new gear boons... 2% on great probably matches a better rolled Tier 4.
3. I would not try to target farm anything at Tier 5 in loot pools that require Prime drops. You're literally playing the lottery at astronomical odds.
Because 1st you need a Prime, which can take hrs.
Then you need the weapon or slot you want.
Then you need the roll, archetype, and stats you want.
That compounding probability, those escalating odds are impossible to farm realistically.
So, DON'T do it!
