Considering how many people are on a team, and how many teams each are attacking a single 53 Rikti...if I got a drop on a raid I would be pretty surprised. At least, that's how I've always looked at that feature.

I agree with DumpleBerry but I believe the Rikti are level 54 and not 53.
Semantics!

I'd be more surprised if you said you were getting a LOT of drops. Usually I get one or two pieces of salvage and maybe a recipe at most.
Not getting drops isn't surprising at all.

Okay, good. I don't make it to Raids that often and I thought I remembered getting inspirations pretty often, but maybe not. The no-merit thing was definitely a bug, so maybe I'm a little oversensitive. Bad luck I can live with.

In terms of the no merits thing, are you certain you have the Member of Vanguard badge?

Yup, that was definitely a bug. Solo I got them, teamed I didn't. But everyone else on my team did. That didn't happen this week, luckily.

Weird. I don't think it was the SSK system though. I did a raid a few days ago with the level 41 scrapper and he got merits just fine when SSK'd to 49.

Merits during a raid have special drop rules based on having the badge. Regular drops work as normal. That means to get the drop, you or your team has to do enough damage. In the AoE fest that is a Rikti raid, that's harder than normal.

I've been having odd experiences at the Rikti Mothership raid recently. Yesterday I was at a raid. I was on my level 50 scrapper. I was on a team. The team leader was level 50. I received influence and prestige. I received Vanguard Merits (unlike the last time I was on a raid). But I did not receive any other drops of any kind during the entire raid. No recipes, no salvage, no enhancements, no inspirations. Is that WAI or a bug? Not getting merits was clearly a bug, but I'm not sure about the other stuff. Maybe it's a side-effect of SSK at level 50? I don't play my 50's enough to know.
