One last follow-up (Destiny)

I played more tonight (only 32 more orbs to go), and I think the event armor plays a role - I wasn't wearing it initially and the orbs weren't dropping. After a game and a half with no progress, I put on 4 pieces and the orbs started to drop.

According to all the readable stuff, armor only increases the bonus of the tonic effect. I did notice while playing in the forrest that I was getting betwen 2-4 orbs from shots. That could be based on type of bad guy, so maybe if you are on a spree you can get more orbs?
