[prime crest]

Show me de way
What are your guys' favorite/best way to farm?

[still crown]

opening chests while i'm doing pathfinder

[prime crest]

thats what i have been doing while farming the wave frame arc ergo

[coarse furnace]

Console or PC

[sudden mural]

farm chests in the landing, I’d suggest looking up the route

[graceful field]

afk macro

PC

[graceful field]

literally afk macro is the best

[placid cliff]

Start from Landing and head right, going in a counter-clockwise fashion around the area with the 50m Mat mod on Ghost

Go for any chest that gets detected, fast travel back to landing and wait 1m for respawns before doing again

Average about 5-6 chests every 5m

word. thanks all

[pearl sleet]

absolutely not worth it imo, just do the mission

the drop chances are abyssmal

[placid cliff]

Trueeee.

[sudden mural]

it’s faster after the double drop nerf

[calm spoke]

i hope bungie address the class item issue soon they cant be having macroing be almost a forced option to get these things 😭

[sudden mural]

it’s not forced you can easily do the route manually it’s just super repetitive

[calm spoke]

and also at on average what 1 chest a min 50 mins per drop 53 hours per character to be at odds for the role you want?

[sudden mural]

how tf is it taking you 50 mins, it’s an average of abt 20-30 mins per item

[calm spoke]

a dude just now said 5 chests every 5 mins = 1 chest a min and its 50 chests on average for a drop?

[sudden mural]

that’s not right

just try it for yourself, it does not take long

[calm spoke]

a class item every 20 mins feels very very off to thats 2.5 chests a min constantly

just the travel time alone should make those numbers hard to hit

[sudden mural]

if you’re going fast, the data is actually closer to 15 minutes

if you can either skate or even just use a skimmer it’s pretty fast

[calm spoke]

what data?

[sudden mural]

people have compiled data of the fastest way to run it

[calm spoke]

also thats still 21 hours btw xD which is 63 hours for 1 roll on all classes to be at odds of just running in a circle

[sudden mural]

yeah lol I never said it didn’t need a change

but 90% of gamblers quit before they win big

[calm spoke]

the reason i said macro feels forced is becasue the system needs to change since no one wants to do it with such blindingly awful odds i just read you saying macro does not feel forced as the current system was ok

idk if they will but i hope bungie address it

[pearl sleet]

a decent run takes 15min and I've never seen someone get their drops every 15min with the afk looting route
