Current vanguard engram system needs to be buffed
This will likely never happen but running 15 strikes just to get 1 engram is going to burn your remaining players out. When i started thinking last night of how long it would take just to get one set of armor with the stats I need from Zavala I got immediately sewered out and just shut the game off. We really need other ways of getting the vanguard engrams. Make them a random drop from doing activities or add them to the chest loot pool. The entire community would agree with this change and it’s not a hard thing to implement. Game is at an end, at least give us this with the unvaulting.

I want some weapons he sells but after grinding activities only for 1 to drop after several ones I stopped grinding and decided to get them as they come and run a few activities then stop whether I get any or not.

When you complete a Lost Sector with your engrams full, the loot gets sent to your postmaster as engrams, and then if you decrypt them in the Tower, they decrypt as World Loot, instead of Destination Loot, which means you can farm for Smoke Jumper, Techsec, and Ferropotent that way. It's MASSIVELY more efficient than farming Vanguard activities. P.S. For Swordmaster and Bushido gear, wait till Xur is selling it on weekends. You can change your Armourer ghost mod to change the stats of the armour he sells, so that can help you get the Swordmaster and Bushido rolls you're looking for more easily.

Yeah I'm wanting to make a few Tech Set armor sets but it feels impossible because you get no engrams for doing Vanguard activities. Running them on higher tiers doesn't up the ante either. I think it's a bug causing this.

I wish I could give you mine. I'm sitting on like 15. Probably will never use them

I completely agree... it makes arena/solo/pinnacle/fireteam... just way less interesting... they need to buff that and drifter engrams in Gambit... thing is they said they already did buff from their original plan (if I recall correctly)... maybe a chance as I keep hearing there is some development/surprise stuff goin on potentially for D2 (beyond unvaulting)
