Bungie Explains Three of Coins Functionality, Fans Aren’t Happy

Bungie has announced that over last weekend it was monitoring player feedback around the Destiny 2 community having to do with the Three of Coins consumable that players can gain from Xur. The Bungie team says that it wanted to clarify the functionality of the item. Essentially the consumable gives a 50% better chance of getting an Exotic Engram.

Bungie wrote, “When players use a Three of Coins consumable, this provides a 50% increase to the base chance of being rewarded an Exotic Engram upon activity completion. Using this consumable does not guarantee an Exotic reward upon completing a set number of activities but rather increased chances upon each activity completion.”

Bungie also says that it has found that Heroic Strikes arent granting higher chances for Exotics when using Three of Coins compared to Vanguard Strikes. It says that it will fix that issue in a future hotfix that is expected in early 2018. Players are infuriated at the delay for the fix.

One player called Mars2u wrote, “I bet if Eververse was giving away free Bright Dust, it would be fixed in 1 hour.” Several other people mirrored this comments and flamed Bungie for what they see as continued missteps. Bungie continues to anger gamers even as it tries to address player concerns.
