Unlocked my quest for the New Monarchy Exotic class item on my Warlock yesterday. Ran my 10 strikes in Heroic and I noticed something. Almost every strike had someone AFK and grab rewards at the end. Some guys were trying to be clever and would scoot forward, shoot, then hide once we engaged the enemy. Heroic strikes aren't ball-busting, but running them with only 2 as opposed to a full team can be painful.
The worst strike I had by far had a guardian named (had to remove name but will post vid tomorrow). If you see him in strikes, just leave. If you see him in crucible, own him. This piece of siht did nothing but tuck himself into corners and shoot only when we were looking. He was completely absent and hiding in a nook in the wall at the boss. Then when the boss died, guess what dropped?
The Imago Loop. For THAT GUY.
I had as many assists as he had kills.(29, I had 139 kills at the end) And he gets the one gun I still haven't managed to get. Bungie, you need to do something to stop people from cruising through strike playlists and reaping the rewards because this is stupid. And it's like this a for almost every strike I join.
So sound off fellow guardians! Share your strike playlist horror stories below!

I was playing patrol on Venus when I happen to see three people come for a strike...I'm assuming the Nexus. Two of them went one stayed. Whilst shooting vex enemies and Fallen I noticed one of them come back. Dude still standing there. Other guy starts throwing grenades and I joined the fun. Guy throwing grenades sent a message by then the first player returned. Obvious fire team with a blueberry. They both share a dance with me and wave and take off. Blueberry comes back thinking I'm on his match knifes me and runs. I sent him a message saying your other players took off on you because u didn't play. In not on your strike. Didn't get a response but I just laughed and went about my patrol.
