I’d like to chime in on what I took as the OP’s primary, or at least one of the primary, points of his post. The RNG for loot drops is broken. Some players for some reason get really good drops a majority of the time and others get crap loot a majority of the time. I have played since early beta and have seen it over and over. Not sure why but it is an observed reality. I am in a large and active guild and there are a small set of people who just get really good loot from their drops. Be it exotics or charged lodestones or even the occasional precursor they just seem to get them where most of the rest of us do not. These people play as often as I do, which is a lot. (I need to go outside too) and they are geared to the max with multiple legendaries full exotic or better gear etc. I am still trying to get a precursor so I can either sell it to afford the precursor I need or get the one I need. I farm all the daily chests I can almost every day and have seen maybe 3 exotics in the last 3 months. I still love the game and will still keep pluging away towards my goals but it would be nice, if its possible, to get the RNG fixed, tweaked something to provide a slightly better chance of exotic drops.
