How difficult is it, or .. what are the chances, rather, of having an orange shield - any at all - drop from one of the lockboxes? With as many as I buy, I'm stumped.. lol. Might seem like a derpy question, but.. sheesh..

I've gotten about 6, maybe 7.
All the ones I've gotten have been little more than ornamental value, and I gave all but 2 away.
1 I traded for a pair of SAWs in early May when SAWs were hare to find, one I still have to lend out for ppl who need the pursuit.
None have been anything I'd seriously consider using.
I haven't had that much luck with getting orange gear from the boxes but I have managed to get one shield.
Have gotten one from a dark matter arkfall.
Not a great one, just a iron one with no bonus.
I have been playing since launch and I just got my first shield two days ago on my baby new character but have got a crazy amount for oranges weapons for tier 4, I also have only gotten two grenades.
Iv bought countless boxes and only ever had one orange since launch. Don't know why I bother. I got nearly purple everything post patch now but sadly no oranges.
Kitty what's ur ego iI might be able to help u out
I feel your pain Kitty, I have yet to see an orange shield or grenade drop. Hell, I haven't even seen a half decent orange weapon.
I've been crazy lucky on orange weapons. I've only had three drop from lockboxes with useless stats.
My oj SAW, AR, Immunizer, Detonator, snipers all had relevant synergies. Assasin derailer and stalker immunizer for example. Usually got mag and reload bonuses too. But, after over 6 months of lock boxes and dozens of DM arkfalls, I've never seen an oj grenade or shield. After I decided that PvP wasn't worth the EGO, i stopped caring about any of the remaining pursuits anyway. Then with all the 0 det purples I have, who needs an oj grenade.
I have yet to see an orange shield or an orange grenade drop for me... guess I need to keep searching.
Meh... "you pays your money and you take your chances." RNG at its finest/worst.
