8 clears, and I’m yet to get a single hand cannon, or a single chestpiece. 70% of my drops have (exclusively) been the trace rifle or the helmet.
I got the exotic twice already. Two exotics before a single hand cannon.
If this is the grind someone need to do to get a single unloved (Let alone one with hatchling), this is what’s drawing players away from the game.
Bungie, please add a kind of focusing system after completing the dungeon X amount of times, because this is just dumb.

The Trace Rifle and Scout are possible drops for [b]all three[/b] encounters while the Shotgun and HC are each only available from two encounters (the HC can drop from the first and third). As far as Armor is concerned the Helm, Gloves and Boots can drop from all three encounters while the Chest [b]only[/b] drops from the Boss fight. Due to how the loot table is structured the fact that you are after the HC and Chest Armor in particular means that grinding out Boss checkpoints rather than doing full runs is probably the most time efficient way of trying to get either item, although you [i]might[/i] want to switch to farming just the first encounter once you’ve obtained the Chest piece, depending on how quickly you can grind it out. [quote]Bungie, please add a kind of focusing system after completing the dungeon X amount of times, because this is just dumb.[/quote] Completing the [b]Drowning Labyrinth[/b] Quest unlocks the ability to Focus for particular drops, however you can only Focus for items you have [i]already[/i] obtained (aside from the Class Item, as this is the only means to obtain it) and Focusing doesn’t affect your RNG for encounter drops, it simply places the selected item within a chest in the locked Vault behind the Boss room upon completing the Dungeon.

I have done about 55 clears of the second encounter farming the shotgun. I’ve gotten it three times. Tis the way of RNG.
