Hey all, I tried doing a search before posting this but could not find anything.

I was wondering if anyone else is having literally all of their loot dropping at scores less than 500 when being at 500+ gear score? I am currently gear score 508. And I know that not every piece should be 500 and have the best rolls, I understand there is a grind, but to me this just doesnt seem right. Literally almost every drop I get ranges from about 490-499 for high end items. Every once in a great while, Ill get a 500 gear score item, but it is pretty rare.

At first I thought it was because I still had some gear that was like 499, 498, etc. in my slots but unfortunately, its still happening even after making sure every slot is a 500 or higher gear score item.

Is this happening to others? I even get nothing but gear score loot in the 490-499 range on challenging bounties, heroic bounties, challenging main missions, control points, whatever the activity is the rolls always drop in this manner.

Is this intended? The really odd part to me, is that I see other players dropping/sharing loot in missions that are nothing but 500 gear score items. And also, I never really had this problem until recently so Im just not sure whats going on here.

Well, would you look at that.
