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.

  • I am someone who loves the grind in general. But at this point I just want to get levelled up and hit the dungeon. Killing boars in the Forrest over and over to rank up my light level isn't very appealing. The raid and trials should be the path to max imo. Meanwhile, I will be forging as I sleep (on my main 👍)

  • Doing nightmare hunts technically gets you rewards faster but its tedious and why do that when I can go play on my switch or watch Netflix sleep ect and level my guardian at the same time.

  • I have tried to DO the Izanami Forge 15 times in a row but there's no way I can do it on my own... The time counter gets to 0 before I have even finished the first roun, and that's just because of all these lazy guys not playing the game properly...

    • If I still had 750 gear or a preset fireteam that wanted to do it I damn sure would. No judgement here. Honestly, I just want to play the new content. This 50 power jump prevents me from doing that while I grind empty bounties and old activities.

    • Weeks????? Hours I'll give you that. This was a season, not a dlc so of course you had to grind for the endgame. Seasonal content is supposed to add to the endgame grind, that's why they exist. If you play three characters and ran every milestone you could have been at 1050 legitimately with one character and the others would be on the upper 1040s. I heard the already patched the exploit. I actually tried it out earlier with my first character the play some armor catch up, think I tried 2 or 3 hours, maybe got 5 or 6 engrams and not enough mats to upgrade them all. It wasn't efficient, could have gotten more engrams add mats for upgrades playing that three hours.

          Let everyone know, farm the forge BELOW 750... Vendos have 750 armor and use masks and if you have a Dreamer's Bond at 21, this helps also. Spread the word, so people don't miss out.

            • Yeah, Forge Farming is crazy right now but I don’t see it being worth it. You have to be desperate. But I understand if you’re a college kid or dad with some kiddos. Then have at it👍

              The game has always desperately needed variance in both the open world areas and the activities that we are meant to replay so much. Strikes should be some kind of procedural mission that utilizes the whole planet as potentially usable areas and in a way that is relevant to the current season/what is going on in the universe currently. This whole thing where we just replay what equates to increasingly challenging story missions from literally years ago is just not a good system in my opinion. If you make the content more interesting and in a way in which it isn’t exactly the same in every way every time it’s played people will be less likely to use exploits to speed up the process. Even without the exploit, I have done like 10 nightmare hunts, an ordeal, and a gambit match and I haven’t gotten any altered element. I now have 7 umbrals that I can’t focus. The forge farm is looking good even for just being able to focus the engrams in general at this point.

            • Nothing worse than increase an arbitrary number, so penalties get removed and they dare call it "power" I am so happy I can skip grinding old content and get to 1050 and do the content I want, and that's just the weekly quest and dungeon, Moments of Triumph and Solstice Of -blam!-'s are going to be hard no from me.

                • There are faster ways. Zydron nightmare takes less than 3 minutes. Lake of shadows is also amazing too. I get it if people farm whe asleep but it's more efficient playing lol.
