Exotic Engrams / Xur Glitched - Crest of Alpha Lupi
So....I saw a bunch of posts talking about how people got a crap load of Crest of Alpha Lupi for Hunter / Titan from Xur this week. I figured that maybe they were just buying and opening them on their Hunters and given that CoAL is the only chest available, that would explain it....
But I just bought two engrams (bought and opened then bought and opened, not buy two open two) and I got 2 CoALs myself....on my Warlock!
I know it's possible to get other classes gear from engrams, but what are the chances that a Warlock bought and opened engram would decrypt into the CoAL twice in row? I'd have to fathom not very well...which leads me to believe this week's engram is broken.
That also burned the "last" of my strange coins, so I'm really not happy that about it. Anyone else see similar results? I know Bungie won't do anything about this, but I can't help but think this is broken.
EDIT #1: Make sure you upvote this so Bungie can see!
EDIT #2: Thank you everyone for the responses! The overwhelming majority hear have been experiencing the same thing I did, disappointment and BROKEN RNG.
EDIT #3: For those of you who are touting RNG, I understand how RNG works. But when Bungie specifically stated that they were putting in logic to help 1) Reduce the % chance associated with duplicate items and 2) Increasing the chance that engrams would decrypt for the class you're decrypting on, then something is broken.
EDIT #4: 150+ comments! Keep responding with samples so Bungie can add it to their data!

Bought two engrams, found one using three of coins.... All turned into CoAL. One was 310 though.

1 Reply4 engrams = 2 Titan CoAL(290, 290), 1 Hunter CoAL(310), 1 Voidfang Vestment(310). I started TTK with over 700 coins. I'm down to right around 100 now and don't have nearly the selection of exotics as I had hoped.I wish I kept a list of all the engrams I decrypted. I'm certain most will be duplicates with a hefty lean toward CoAL.

Buy. Decrypt one. Go to orbit. Come back. Repeat. You're welcome

3 RepliesOpened 3 chest engrams from Xur on Friday on my Hunter. First Voidfang Vestmants @ 290 Second 310 Hunter CoAL Third 310 Hunter CoAL So not disappointed as could get my Raid chest up to 310 for Hard Mode run What was disappointing was the only armor drop on Hard run on Hunter was..........Chest @ 317.

1 ReplyI got warlock chests for my warlock. But they were 290 even though I was 306 decrypting so had to shard:(
-
2 RepliesI don't waste strange coins on buying engrams. I use the coins to but three of coin and then go farm taken champions for the exotic engrams. Works out to be about the same cost as buying that engrams from xur, and thwre is more exotic engrams possible anyway.

2 RepliesBought it with hunter, decrypted with warlock - still got my 8th lupi...

1 ReplyThe same thing Happened to me.

1 ReplyWow that sucks I got my alchemist raiments from my engrams

7 RepliesI only had enough coins to buy 3. All were CoAL. I already had one, a 290 infused to 296. All the ones I got were 290's so.....WTF. Why make the Twilight Garrison so rare as not a single person got one from the engrams?
