Hamlet Defense, more RNG? Discouraging.

I've only completed it once but we got 13k and got no unique drops.

Where is the proof to suggest what you posted above.

Agree with you that the score must have some effect on loot drops although I'm not sure those numbers are accurate :P

The drops aren't guaranteed to be Militia gear. Just like Primals it can also be Dark Matter, which happens most of the time. The number of drops is pretty consistent from what I've seen though, so it seems that that theory is correct. Rewards do have multiple factors that affect them like Supply Rating, score and being in the top 20 contributors.
