It seems odd (Destiny)

I have 37 full crota runs on normal and hard, along with numerous partial runs. This has netted me:

4 Black Hammers
4 Oversoul Edicts
4 Abyss Defiants
2 Word of Crotas
2 light of the Abyss fusion rifles
1 sword breaker
3 Hunger of Crotas
3 fangs of ir yute scout rifles
2 songs of ir yute MGs
1 crux
4 helmets
9 arms
3 boots
5 chests
3 bone circlets
2 capes
1 dishtowel

6 Dragon's breath
5 No land Beyond
3 MIDA multitool
1 Truth
1 normal mode ship

Note, I have gotten zero hard mode ships or speeders. In contrast that is all I ever get from the Vault of Glass.
Smart loot doesn't seem to be very active to me, mostly because the exotics I get from the raid tend to repeat very consistently. It still seems better then the Vault, which never drops any specials for me over my 24 completions and numerous additional partial runs.

Early on though I noticed that I would get very similar loot drops running Crota back to back with different characters. I think I made a joke one time that I was going to get another NLB on our second run that night and it came true.
