I tried for awhile to actually get them, and finally gave up. The only uncommons to drop for me are ammo and weapon consumables. I can't even remember the last time I got an actual piece of gear. I have all the RARE gears maxed, but the uncommons I barely have any. Fortunately I have the shield gear at IV, and that's usually the one I use, so eh.

I think I see ultra rares more nowadays than I do uncommon gear...

But, of course, the suggestion that something might be wrong with their hallowed store is practically blasphemy to Bioware, so please don't say that...

That's crazy, I get silver (uncommon) but not gold gear, ever since last weeks balance changes. I think I have unlocked 3 piece of gold gear from millions and millions of credits spent.

I agree, gear seem to drop at an incredibly low rate. It's pretty frustrating actually, since it's very nice to have for it's flexibility in regard to your setup.

[Chaoswind]

Uncommon Gear follows different sets of rules, their drop rate is the same across vet/sp/psp so is actually cheaper to max them if you spam the vet packs, yes you will get a ton of **** like level 2 equipment or level 3 equipment, but remember is only 20k creds, so you can get a lot of them.

5 vet packs per gear drop in the average is much better than one gear drop every 4 psp, honestly once I unlock all the classes and get my acolyte to 10, I will do nothing than spam vet packs, the only UR I like is the harrier and the chances of getting upgrades for it are LOW.

Yeah, that is nuts. I'd much rather get the silver gear than the Gold. The silver gear at least has useful stuff in it... The Gold gear is just as useful as getting yet another Batarian Sentinel card... <_<

Edit : My apologies, I was confusing my Rare gear with the Rare weapon upgrades. I am an idiot.

The Gold Gear I don't get either, I get it just as little as the uncommon stuff.

Bioware is not in the habit of communicating with its fans. Oh sure, on occassion a mod or developer will pop in to dispense an info cookie or share an opinion. We like cookies.
But the company is terrible at communication. Almost everything is PR speak. I ask you: where is the "known issues" list?  Many of the ongoing bugs affect new players who without spending time here in the forums would never know they are not getting features of the game they have PAID for.
Its a damn shame and I blame Bioware for the close-mouthed, hear-no, speak-no, see-no evil trading on its past successes. Yes, the games are good, but these games have enough bugs to compromise the feature sets advertised. I enjoy playing them, but I want want I'm told I'm getting.

And if I can't have it, I would like to know what the plans are for getting or not getting it to me.
That's a fair request, its common courtesy and I predict that we won't see it from the "new" EA-Bioware.
Bioware, talk to your customers. Please tell me if there is bug or problem with the drop rate on this equipment?

BUY VETERAN PACKS FOR UNCOMMON GEAR, SPECTRE PACKS FOR COMMON.

[Siran]

THE DROPRATE IS STILL INSANELY LOW FOR GEAR EVEN IF YOU WRITE IN CAPS

[brian_breed]

It's not if you buy the right packs. I get roughly one Rare gear upgrade in every three SPs.

[poloplo]

I want uncommon gears i.e. thermal clip storage, densified ammunition IV, etc.

[Immortal Strife]

I have a feeling that Siran and I are in the same boat-a hell of a lot of level IV ammo and very few gear pieces.

It seems once you max your character, rare/uncommon weapons, and mod unlocks, the RNG breaks and only gives ammo and other consumables. Very frustrating when I still have ultra rare weapons to unlock/upgrade as well as several rare and uncommon gear items. BW needs to tweak something in the RNG to correct this. I only get these drops when new DLC comes out and until I max the new characters and weapons. Once that is done, no more gear or UR drops.

Did it occur to you that perhaps they're supposed to be harder to get than weapon or character cards? They're a piece of persistent equipment that has no restrictions and costs you nothing to equip. They allow you to shore up a character's weakness, or emphasize a strength, without penalty, and at higher gear levels the bonuses can be quite substantial for what they are.

That doesn't change the fact that if you want gear, you're better off keeping in mind they drop in equipment/consumable slots, and buying packs with a mind for maximizing the number of equipment/consumable "rolls" you get -- which means buying vet packs for uncommon gear, SP's for rare gear, since PSP's have fewer equipment/consumable slots.

Got room for one more?

According to BioWare there is nothing wrong with the store.

Trust me, I've spent over 10mil credits in PSP (which should have an even higher drop-rate for rare gear) after Earth DLC, having maxed everythingbefore that (even the gear from Rebellion). I maxed everything from Earth DLC with the 10mil except for gear.

Of course the drops could be working like they're supposed to, but something has clearly changed with the drop rates or the drops are not unlocked in a completely random fashion (as shown by the number of people that have their rare gears maxed on the manifest through Operative Package). It would be nice if BioWare would acknowledge that a change to the drop rate was made, or it would be nice to know that there actually is a problem. I mean spending millions and hardly getting any gears seems like a problem to me. Perhaps the gears should be called ultra rare and legendary if they drop so infrequently.

Simple as that - I expect from "rare" and "uncommon" gear to drop in the same way as "rare" or "uncommon" weapons, characters and mods. They clearly don't.

[Odintheknight]

all I have been getting is weapon mods and gear. I would like to get some of the new n7 classes and guns. So I am the opposite, would like to see some characters and guns.

[Chaoswind]

You get guaranteed uncommon/rare weapons and characters, that HAS nothing to do with gear, gear drops in the same way as weapons and characters would if they weren't guaranteed.

[Arundel Vandraman]

The gear drops much less than UR weapons from PSPs.

[Moses6533]

I have a pretty low drop rate of gear as well. But it's hard to accuarately say especially since it's RNG. However in the past week or so I have dropped about 5 UR weapons and about 1 Gold gear.

I did the math and i have roughly 20% of the UR weapons/levels, and only 11% of the Gold gear, granted I have been getting UR weapons from the start, while gear has only been out for a while now.

I was hoping that once I maxed the weapons and characters that gear would start dropping, but that doesn't sound like the case.

And as for the OP, i am confused by when they said that they had no problem maxing the gears though the "operative package". Did they mean they maxed the Operative Package gear before they added new gear to the store?

edit: nm I see now what he meant. He meant that he had no trouble dropping gear when they first came out, but now the drop rate seems to be very low with the new gears added.

Charaters, mods, weapons maxed, streak of 23 PSPs without gear

I want to be nice but there are too many posters in here with "theories" who don't know what they are talking about.  If you don't have all your CC, rare weapons, mods, and rare rebellion Gear maxed please stop posting.  People keep posting that they get tons of gear and you look at there Manifest and they don't have everything maxed and have virtually no earth gear and no IV Ammo.

The drop rate on Earth gear is broken.  The people that have even a decent amount of Earth gear all have 200+ total level IV consumables.  That's hundreds of PSP/SP's valued at tens of million credits.  There are too many manifests with maxed UR's that aren't even close to maxing the Earth gear.

Uncommon gear has a lower drop rate than UR's, respec cards, and level III ammo in SP's and Vet packs

Rare Earth gear has a lower drop rate than UR's in SP/PSP.

It's a new rarity for gear only call Legend Rare, it's a .001% chance

LOL

Do you ever play the game? I'm curious because you say you get one Rare gear from the Earth DLC every three SPs you buy, yet on your manifest you have not unlocked 5 of the Earth DLC so-called "Rare" Gear. Out of a total of 35 so-called "Rare" Earth DLC Gear drops, you have received a total of THREE. When it comes to "Uncommon" -- or as someone hilariously re-classified as "Unattainable" -- you have unlocked only one of the 4 gears with a total of only TWO drops out of twenty.

Earth DLC Uncommon Gear on your manifest:
Thermal Clip Storage (0/5)
Adaptive War Amp (0/5)
Engineering Kit (2/5)
Densified Ammunition (0/5)

Earth DLC so-called "Rare" Gear on your manifest:
Combatives Upgrade (0/5)
Martial Biotic Amp (2/5)
Juggernaut Shield (0/5)
Shock Trooper Upgrade (0/5)
Guerrilla Upgrade (0/5)
Omni-Capacitors (0/5)
Barrage Upgrade (1/5)

As mentioned in the OP, I have spent 28,000,000 credits (roughly) since I installed the Earth DLC and am still missing 31 of the Earth DLC Gear drops. In the meantime, I have maxed my Ultra-Rares to Level X -- including the Typhoon.

Bioware needs to get off it's collective butt and re-classify the Earth DLC Gear as something other than "Uncommon" and "Rare". However, they will not. My solution has been to stop spending credits and to save them for the next MP DLC. At least at that time, I will receive something for them -- rather than shaking my head in contant disappointment.

P.S. I have the 9th highest N7 in the world. I know that it means nothing to anyone but me, but it sure would be nice if it maybe carried some weight with Bioware. That they would at the very least reply or create a sticky thread saying that they're working on the issue. I know, I know -- wishful/foolish thinking :\\
