The Perk-Distribution Bug has existed since at least Final Shape, 4 months ago. It just didn't happen on any popular perk combinations, so it flew under everyone's radar. Media

"There's no reason that Moving Target + Threat Detector should be 17x more likely than MT + Repulsor Brace."

Truthteller was reissued when Final Shape came out. Notoriously, it was panned as a pretty shitty reissue, with no good rolls, no clearly defined god roll, and overall just everyone moved on and ignored it.

However, even on Truthteller, the perk distribution is night and day. This is the exact same bug that's on Chill Inhibitor.

It's just that nobody was crying they couldn't get "Harmony + Grave Robber" on the GL. Out of tens of thousands of drops, only 161 people got Danger Zone + Elemental Capacitor.

That is fractions of a percent.

This bug has existed for a while. It's only just now, just this season, just recently, that it's finally happened to a meta defining god roll trait combination.

How long as this been in the system?

The person at Bungie who decided to remove crafting for future weapons must be kicking themselves. No one would have cared to dig into this if we could just farm any old red border roll and craft it instead lol.

Yes but this is the first dungeon available since the release of the Final Shape and according to the data is about the same time the issue has reared its head. 4 months ish. So yeah they let the cat loose amongst the pigeons. Good call bungie
