Quick Post here:
314 games
175 Wins
Total looting - 200+ games (Used anatonomous probe a lot for losses)
I loot 6 times per win / Loss (with probe)
Total Purples found … 1 T2 item.
So 1 Purple in 200 Loots is a ratio of .05% Chance…
Purple Loot Drop chance needs to be increased to say… 3% or 5% or something… Maybe that’s what it is already is… If so it should be increased to 7% or 10%. There is clearly something wrong with these numbers and drop rates.
You are just not lucky enough… As me too 
412 played, 279 victories, 14 purple items total for me.
Haven’t used those loot boosters.
I’d been playing pretty solid for a straight week, and have had 2 purple loot drops from PVP (180 wins x 5 chances per win = 900 chances / 2 purple loot = 450 loots to 1 purple) and 1 purple loot drop from Scenario. All three were loot drops that I cannot use, as they do not fit with the ship and setup I fly.
This is with 5 chances to loot per win. Since my license has now expired and I only have 3 chances to loot now, it’s going to increase to something like 1 purple every 150-200 games. Or about 3-4 purples a month at 150 PVP games a week. (150 PVP games per week is about 18-25 hours of playing, not everyone, especially those of us with jobs, can even play that much.) For those of us with a life outside of the game, it’s going to be more like 1 purple a month.
If that.
That does seem incredibly low to me.
In order to fully fit just one ship with purple gear, assuming I get exactly all the drops I need, I’ll have to play this game for at least 13 months, a little over a year. More realistically I’m looking at 2-3 years to get a set up like that. Not my cup of tea, thanks. Star Citizen would be done by then. So would a lot of other games, like Destiny, a new elder scrolls game, etc. etc. I only have so much time to play something like Star Conflict.
My luck : 190 win =
about 30 wins from t1 = 0 purple, 1 green t2 item.
about 100 win from t2 = 1 purple t2 item, 6-7 greens all t2 items.
about 60 wins from t3 = 0 purple, 9 greens all t4 items.
From scenarions: only greens t2 and only from purple loot spot.
If i’m not mistaken its imposible to get t3 items.
Alright so its not just me then, Can a dev please respond to this and comment on what if anything is going to be done about the loot drop rate “For Purples”?
Thanks
about 267 wins.
52 greens (20 or so from scenarios)
9 purples (1 from scenario)
I have the additional loot chance of the DLC.
*shrug*
Maybe they are using a completely RNG system then, Either way the drop rate should be increased in my opinion. a month to get a purple is too long and will get extremely boring and tedious playing simply to farm purples so you can be competitive with those who got lucky and got tons of purples in a few games.
So from what I’m seeing, the drop rate is between 0.005 and 0.03 or 0.5% and 3%.
3-5% is more where I think it ought to be.
I got a purple Spy Drone, I was so happy -.-
The low drop rate, combined with the sheer number of module types, does make purposefully grinding purples a ludicrous enterprise.
I got 3 purple warpgates.
xD
The drop chances are low because it would be bad if everyone was flying on pure purple ships.

Yeah I mean how would ESB win then if the enemies had equal gear as they do? That would be madness!
Keep on handing those free purples to ESB

While I dont think they did get handed free purples, some of their ships’ stats are incredible.
I bet somewhere during the last weeks there has been a glitch/bug they abused till it was fixed, tho.
During my time in T1 I got 3 purple loots. Since I’ve been in T2, which is longer than I spent in T1, I’ve had 0. And I’ve had significantly less green drops too. They said they increased the loot drop chance a few patches ago… I feel like they reduced it.
Wait till you get to tier 3/4. Random purple and green drops are non-existent.
if you want T3/T4 loot, do scenarios

My inner conspiracy theorist tells me the same…

It’s bad for those we didn’t get them, it’s great for those who did. This disparity hurts those who don’t. Disparity is not fun.

Ok. But one question : when you play a T3 scenario, in case of victory, have you got a chance to get a T3 drop ?
