This makes no sense. I am only 2 for 28 on bane guns and 12 in a row without one.

Dan, you really need to make the odds a lot better. :evil:

your numbers are not low at all .. but par for the course for banes.

the whole point of the seasonal is to hunt for them ...

Im at 0 for roughly 20 atm. Dont particularly care tbh, nice to get a set of terrorcharged for cargo but im not going to install them. 2bn for 120 invade attack isnt worth the upkeep

i have 2 terror.charged, but they will also sit in cargo. i wish i had saved a set of overcharged emitters. then i could have upgraded them to mega (30%) and got all the benefit i could afford.

i have no issues with paying the upkeep .. it is the bleepin repair costs every 10 invasions that would hit my bankroll hard. it's why i had to downgrade my biospheric decimators after 1 cycle of invasions. burned the greens to replace them with the atmospherics again lol.

Just sayin' ;)

my luck with them isn't good either so I don't hunt them. If I happen to stumble on them when doing a legion mission that requires NPCing and 1 drops, okay but if not, meh, that's what I expect.

took me around 120 kills to get 4 overcharged emitters 2 years ago
but last year under 30 kills for 4 terrorcharged emitters

and havent realy been hitting the banes all that hard this year, only done around 6.000 total kills so far (not sure how many banes that gave me), and still found Terrorcharged Bane Emitter (Uses Left: 3)


it a 5% to 10% chance to get an Emitter every time you kill a standart bane, so sometimes you get lucky and sometimes you dont
but for most players it should proberly get a full set of Emitters in around 50 bane kills


I could easily upgrade to Horrorcharged Bane Emitter x4, if I wanted to ( Bane Psybeacon (Uses Left: 8))
but already paying 4 * 426.7 mil credits = 1.7 bil for systems that basickly only add 4 * 90 = 360 attack (and 360 invasion attack), I can easily get by simply adding more Tactical Officers, so not going to bother with that upgrade
the upkeep isnt realy a problem for me, but no point in throwing credits after something that doesnt even increase my attack all that mutch

no, just the RNG that doesnt like you

think I got around 40 to 50 traps before I finaly got the first overcharged emitters 2 years ago
and after that another 30+ kills for the second and ofcourse 3. and 4. was more right after each other around 30 kills after number 2

so know how fustrating it can be, not to get the drop you want/need all to well

Skipping the NPC hunts has made it much less stressful, I find...

So far I've seen one of the elites, haven't seen a single normal bane mob yet.

Hallows Bane Trick (Uses Left: 28)
Hypercharged Bane Emitter (Uses Left: 10)
Overcharged Bane Emitter (Uses Left: 16)

All from this year and more specifically, under 2k NPC kills. And this is with 3-4 NPC from mission chains in my entire mix.

Realistically, it should be harder at lower ranks than higher ranks but RNGsus may not like you.

3 for 67 now. My streak finally ended after 0 for 42 but it looks like I will not get my 4th this year...

0/8 again...3 for 75. This is Hell!!! :evil:

0/8 again and again...3/83. This is pure torture. I never saw a worse RNG.

Edit: It finally took me 88 Banes to get my 4 guns. That is 1/22 and well under 5%...not even Caches should be this rare... :o
