Why people are afk farming
It is by far the most efficient strategy to level your character. If the game had a more efficient leveling system built into it's more legitimate systems we would be utilizing that. Many other games have leveling systems that put you close to end game levels at the end of story content. So you don't have to work as hard. This game makes you play hours upon hours, days upon weeks even, to get to end game levels. And it makes you play content we've already been playing up to this point.
TLDR: If you Make a better leveling experience, you will get more players who want to engage with it And not *want* to find the exploits.

2 RepliesI did 10 Forges at power level 1040 and was never placed into a afk forge. The people who matched with me were at or near my level.

1 ReplyDestiny has become the official "AFK Arena".

99 RepliesIts unethical, lazy and pathetic. I will personally dedicate 24 hours of going into each forge and reporting these clowns.
-
6 RepliesFunny how people are saying this is pathetic and stuff, yet the streamers get away with the powerful engram farm/glitch/whatever it was back in forsaken release
-
Bungie could have disabled forges just how they disabled trails over the weekend. But I guess this isn't a good enough reason to disable it? So if you can't beat them...

Edited by Jebus Kreist: 6/16/2020 1:58:15 AMSee... I AFK farmed because if I'm not 1060 when the DLC launches I have no hope in hell of being ready when the Raid launches. That's besides the point where the only people who can actually reach a viable level in the inevitably minuscule timeframe of DLC launch to the Raid going live are the sweaty 18hr/day Streamers with spreadsheets and schedules for what content they are going to do on all 3 characters in exactly what order.

5 RepliesAdept Nightmare Hunt farming by day, AFK Forge farming by night. while u were out partying i studied the balde

Because their morons and like ruining the game experience for other players.

Bungie need to to do like ubisoft did with division 2 players who exploited the dps glitch, rollback accounts with 1 or 2 weeks. But no, bungie likes afk players likes cheaters etc. Bungie love when you pay them and you cant enjoy the game you paid for and so on. If i make a post with something i cant buy on eververse ( i mean something is not working on eververse) in less then 5 seconds someone from bungie will respond and the patch will be ready in less then 12 hours.

It should more aptly be named IDG-AFK

Weird, took me quite a few forges yesterday to get a team that wanted to forge. But on the 6-8 where I got stuck with afk’ers I didnt get any engrams or currency. Got the daily forge bounties sorted though,then spent the whole time reviving the afk’ers to keep myself amused

They patched it you can still do it but you can't stay in the queue
-
1 Replybungie can stop it anytime they want. they like the boost to player engagement stats that AFK players give them.

4 Replies[spoiler]If light wasn't such a garbage timegate then afk grinding would be completely unnecessary in the first place.[/spoiler] People who want to afk farm should use lfg to match up with like-minded players at the very least. Jumping into the matchmaking with less than a full fireteam risks screwing over other players trying to actually complete the forges.

48 RepliesI am so sick of not being able to do my forges because of this idiotic system, every clown around is afk forge farming, they need to ban them all
-
Still felt good basically soloing the Bergusia Forge and watching two of them get kicked for being AFK. Haha.

9 RepliesWho cares? If people want to ruin a game for themselves, let them.

Edited by SAVAG3 B3AR: 6/15/2020 4:41:31 PMSame here. I've been playing Destiny since day 1 and this is the first time I've ever done anything like this. The leveling experience just isn't as efficient as it used to be and has only gotten worse in recent seasons. Now I've managed to reach 1044PL from 1010 in three days. This normally take me most, if not all of a season to do.

3 RepliesFor the people who are pissed at AFK farmers, just remember that when you're playing legit, you're always gonna be higher level than someone who farms exploits. Because when you're actually doing bounties and different activities, you're earning XP for your artifact.

I dont see any mods responding, sad, a lot of games do this, make a worthless forum for players to scream at eachother where nothing gets done

It doesnt help to get one chest peice out of 30+ engrams. Broke products encourage work-arounds.
-
1 ReplyThis is what happens when the only thing they add is 'endgame' The majority of player time isn't in these activities, even when levelled its not like people are just running the dungeon over and over again. There needs to be something new to do when levelling, badly.

Remove the dam artifact and i wont have a dam problem leveling... the worst idea ever
-
Even if some do this, some of us still enjoy the game as is even at full power I still do my stuff that doesn’t bother me and this isn’t hurting anyone we drop our power and get sent in with people doing the same stuff
