By the way, I guess I left out some infos but for those wondering: If you do everything like I showed and don't actually go in there and revive the dead ghost and just go to orbit instead after looting the shit out of the place you can come back and RESTARTS the mission ANY TIME YOU WANT...so you can go play crucible, strikes, turn off your console whatever. When you come back you'll have the option to Restart and you'll be right at the gate one cutscene away from ALL THE LOOT.

[–]LIFTSHIT 14ポイント15ポイント  (13子コメント)

Restart or resume?

[–]ChipotleSSW 9ポイント10ポイント  (4子コメント)

Restart, strangely enough.

[–]Valdair 2ポイント3ポイント  (3子コメント)

I tried leaving and coming back.... there is no restart option. Even at the exact same level I did before. Just put me back at the beginning. But I think they may have changed the loot because I died ~20 times and killed ~150 thralls and got two green engrams. That was it.

This might actually be one of the best I've seen yet, the Thralls have just as much chance to drop as anything else and you don't have to try and be careful or anything, just shoot as many things as you can until you drop.

What level were you running it on?

[–]1287459 56ポイント57ポイント  (25子コメント)

I'd recommend picking up all the black wax idols and using them while you farm for massive glimmer.

[–]maddzy 6ポイント7ポイント  (15子コメント)

[–]lostinasuprmrkt 24ポイント25ポイント  (12子コメント)

[–]JancariusSeiryujinn 6ポイント7ポイント  (10子コメント)

Is there a way to get them consistently? I've found 2 in my entire 20 levels

[–]todd360 4ポイント5ポイント  (2子コメント)

The glimmer farming spot in "The Shrine of Oryx" is pretty good for them. Just set the level to hard and get to the point where Ghost points out the shrine as you mow through multiple Hallowed Acolytes before coming up against an Ogre. I went from having none to having 8 in about a half hour's worth of farming there. I don't know how often they drop here but if its not as good then the spot I mentioned is your best bet.

Holy shit, not only is this the best method I've used so far, but it also gave me my first exotic.

The icing on the cake is that the exotic could not be more perfect for this run, noting the size of magazine and the first ability.

Just throw it in your vault in the tower. That way if you ever make a Titan, you'll have a free exotic when you it 20!

You can get level 20 stuff from killing a level 1.

[–]G1az3d 14ポイント15ポイント  (0子コメント)

Can confirm, got a legendary engram from a level 1 shank.

[–]Mind_Killer 7ポイント8ポイント  (3子コメント)

It's all about the engrams, not the random gear you pick up. When engrams are later decoded they're at your level. So the level of the kills doesn't matter. And everything from level 1 fallen to the final boss has the same chance to drop one.

[–]The_Artrea 8ポイント9ポイント  (1子コメント)

This was posted yesterday, wasn't it?

Here are some tips:

  • Do not kill the Knight. Let the opposite happen. That's what starts the checkpoint over.

  • Max kills on the level 9 version was 50. 35 on average when doing it quicker.

  • Auto rifle works best but pick your poison.

  • If you play with Heroic modifier, Black Wax Idol nets a decent profit.

My method was to grenade the first wave of thralls, super (Titan shockwave) the second, then take out the rest while the Knight punched me.

There are two Acolytes that will spawn behind you, two to the right on the cliff, two inside the doorway after all the others are killed, and four in the back on the upper platform.

I just did a 30 minute run. Results were:

  • 3k Glimmer with 3 Silken Codex

  • 6 Blue Engrams

  • 21 Green Engrams

  • 0 Purple Engrams

  • 951 kills, 28 deaths

I'll do a run on the level 24 in a bit (got things to decrypt lol)

[–]XB1spcwarmachine 11ポイント12ポイント  (2子コメント)

60 runs.. for me.. here's the drop list

10 blues

3 sublevels

2 cloaks

24 greens

0 purples (this is torture)

[–]TeamRedundancyTeam 2ポイント3ポイント  (3子コメント)

Don't you mean just green gear, not green engrams? I got lots of green loot as well, but they were all gear, no green engrams. Only blue engrams.

[–]Zosoer 32ポイント33ポイント  (57子コメント)

Is there any advantage to doing that mission at a higher level? If I wanted to try lvl 24 or something....

[–]humpstyles 36ポイント37ポイント  (35子コメント)

I feel as if no one knows for sure. Some claim that higher level difficulty rewards you with more/higher engram drops, but then others say they are still getting blue/purple drops on low level mobs.

The world may never know.

[–]TheBF4ProMedic 13ポイント14ポイント  (31子コメント)

Well apparently they all give you level 20 gear (if you're level 20)

It all really just depends on luck, I've heard it a thousand times but its the truth ;-;

330+ Kills made me 1Purple, 3Blue, and a Heap of green... While others seem to be getting bathed in gold and purple ;-;

    [–]ChocoJesus 8ポイント9ポイント  (5子コメント)

    I got a purple engram playing a mission on heroic lv 12 for a bounty. (It was a class item though.) It doesn't seem to be tied to difficulty. Just seems like you need to be 18. Biggest advantage to 22 is there would be more enemies to kill, and more chances for loot. At the same time you're killing enemies slower, so unless you have a legendary weapon it may not be worth it.

    [–]Zosoer 12ポイント13ポイント  (4子コメント)

    Starting it right now at lvl 24. Well see how it goes.

    Edit: as a lvl 23 I couldn't even stay alive to get drops. Going down to lvl 20

    [–]little_21 5ポイント6ポイント  (5子コメント)

    I did it at lvl 9. I killed 2000 total, which took me over an hour.

    I ended with about 8 blues, and a ton of greens, but nothing better than that. Could just be my luck, but to make the grind worth it, I'm guessing I'm going to have to bump up the level.

    EDIT: Difficulty was at lvl 9. I was at lvl 21.

    [–]Ujjy 19ポイント20ポイント  (4子コメント)

    How long had you been doing it for in this video? Several hours, I assume?

    [–]Joabyjojo 44ポイント45ポイント  (10子コメント)

    67 deaths, about 20 seconds total including 'death/loading time', I'd say it looks like half an hour? Unless he deliberately edited his deaths screen to mislead people.

    [–]nonbreakingspace 14ポイント15ポイント  (8子コメント)

    seems a bit onerous though, as you see the screen multiple times

    [–]I_ama_Borat 16ポイント17ポイント  (7子コメント)

    It's not bad actually. A half an hour seems right for this video since the runs take only 20-30 seconds. I get about 60+ deaths in an hour for a different farming method I use. The one I do is this which allows you to cap 25k glimmer in one hour. Always works for me. Each run takes me about 30 seconds to a minute because of looking for loot and searching for the enemies since they like to hide when you shoot at them. But, it's a glimmer farm, not an engram farm. The one OP posted is by far the best I've seen for engrams. Hell, it might be good for glimmer too, haven't really farmed it for long.

    [–][deleted] 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

    It's great or both! Throw up a wax idol or whatever it's called and go to town. You'll most likely pick up another one before the ten minutes is up.

    [–]UltraMegaMegaMan 32ポイント33ポイント  (2子コメント)

    I doubt anyone will see this but this is also good for bounties where you need precision kills or killing pairs of enemies with the fusion rifle.

Also I just did an hmm about 1 hour 45 minutes run of this and got 2 legendaries and enough blue's to level up my cryptarch TWICE!! But...I actually got no purple items. I made a video and I will upload that one of these days but I have a similar one ready for upload aswell so stay tuned if you wanna see how my relationship with Rahool unfolds haha

    You didn't seem to be sarcastic at all so I'll go ahead and tell you how I did.

    I let myself die 32 times, killed around 330 and after a little less than an hour of doing this I got 1 Purple 3 Blue Tons of Green

    Not bad Another plus would be: the heaps of kills is a quick way to upgrade your favorite guns

    [–]Curious_Ape 34ポイント35ポイント  (52子コメント)

    Def gonna do this a bit later. Ive been lusting for a legendary for a while and havent got my hands on any yet.

    [–]TheBF4ProMedic 23ポイント24ポイント  (51子コメント)

    Good luck! *make sure you dont kill the Knight or you'll get a checkpoint and have to start over. *do it on level 20/22 difficulty for better results *have a gun you would like to upgrade equipped (a lot of kills will come your way)

    Good luck man! I'll have my fingers crossed for you. I also have yet to find a Legendary gun ;-;

    [–]winninglikesheen 27ポイント28ポイント  (17子コメント)

    I did it on level 9 for about an hour maybe hour and 15 mins and I got 3 purple engrams, 4 blues and tons of greens. (I'm level 23). Also, the drops you get even on lower levels will be for your level. The only time you don't get level appropriate rewards is the end rewards of a low level strike.

    [–]Jiggle But Gangmrpanafonic 19ポイント20ポイント  (16子コメント)

    if you kill the knight just go back to orbit and come back it starts you just before the cutscene

    [–]goodbye9hello10 6ポイント7ポイント  (15子コメント)

    How do you go back to orbit without it restarting the entire mission?

    [–]Jiggle But Gangmrpanafonic 12ポイント13ポイント  (6子コメント)

    Bring up your ghost and hit got back to orbit. Then do the same mission at the same level and you will start on the hill

    It won't, go to orbit, and go right back. It'll spawn you at that checkpoint :)

    Edit: and that's IF the Knight kills you, if not then just let him kill you and you'll checkpoint

    [–]Curious_Ape 5ポイント6ポイント  (9子コメント)

    Haha I did it for a while half a dozen or so blues quite a few green no purple. Got dropped after 60 some odd deaths trying to get back in at the moment. I was playing on level 9 though they said it was more thralls. They didnt have any problem rushing my 30 round auto rifle during reloads though. Might try level 20 next.

    [–]TheBF4ProMedic 2ポイント3ポイント  (8子コメント)

    Yeah I'd do the same. Good luck! Let me know how it goes :D

    [–]Zosoer 7ポイント8ポイント  (44子コメント)

    How'd you do

    [–]TheBF4ProMedic 13ポイント14ポイント  (43子コメント)

    I JUST went back to the tower after an hour of doing this. I got one purple, three blues and a ton of greens.

    *I let myself die 32 times and killed around 330 hive.

    So I'd say this may very well be one of the better engram farming techniques.

    [–]Zosoer 6ポイント7ポイント  (33子コメント)

    Awesome. Thanks for the follow up. Did you do it on lvl 9 difficulty? Thinking about going higher to see if it drops items differently.

    [–]TheBF4ProMedic 4ポイント5ポイント  (32子コメント)

    I did it on level 20 Difficulty, thinking of trying it on 22 later. I think doing it on 9 would lower the levels of the items you get (no bueno)

    You should try it on 20 for a bit -^

    Another thing I forgot to mention: use guns you want to upgrade! The heaps of kills speeds up the process:D

    Good luck! Let me know how you do

    [–]Cookindinner 10ポイント11ポイント  (10子コメント)

    I think you might be right. I did 1500 kills on level 9, and didn't get a single purple item. Will try on the higher ones and report back. Someone else claimed to get an exotic and 8 legendaries with 60 deaths (roughly what i had for 1500 kills) on the level 9 difficulty though, so I could've just had terrible luck.

    Alright, just did 1500 kills on the level 20 setting. I got one legendary engram this time, so I feel like the drop rates probably are the same for all levels of things. That said, I think this went a little quicker because I died faster, and I never accidentally killed the knight. If I go back I'll do it on level 20 again.

    2500 kills later (5500 in total now) and I got 4 legendary engrams from these kills. They were all boots or class items, but hey, it's a step in the right direction.

    Alright another 1500 kills (7000) and no more legendary engrams. Also only 4 blue ones this time as well... So that's 5 out of 7000. Make of it what you will.

    Another 3000 kills (if anyone is even still reading this) to bring it up to a nice even 10,000 in total, and I got 3 legendary engrams. Seems possible that the rate is around 1/1000, if anyone has any other data anywhere I'd be interested in seeing it.

    Just as an aside, of all the legendary engrams I've found in game (about 20), I've only gotten 3 usable items, one of which was for a different class. All my gear has been bought, and I would actually strongly recommend going for marks and reputation to get armour and weapons.

    Some more advice. To the left of your spawn point is a little tunnel you can run through. Funnel them there. It's kinda higher up then the rest of the ground so it's easy head shots. Also do it on level 9. There are a lot more Thralls!

    Edit: Ok so after about 20 minutes I had about 800 kills, 30 deaths, 29 drops, 5 blue, 24 green. 0 purple. And about 3000 glimmer from using the wax idol.

    [–]ambrosius5c 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Of everything I've tried I'd 100% recommend this. It's easy, fast, and consistent. You can go in expecting to come out with lots of green items, a handful of blues, and any hope for purples is legitimate.

    [–]Jin192 6ポイント7ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Guys it gave me my 1st exotic and without much effort at all u have to do is hold down r2 with an auto rifle and ur set http://i.imgur.com/psU82pT.jpg.

    I would like to add....8 blues after 1.8k kills. I didn't take note how long it took me though probably felt like a good 40 mins?

    Got an even better way to clear the thralls.. Use the left tunnel to funnel them, use a fusion rifle and if u are a hunter... Encore with showstopper plus arc blade.

    And as an added bonus, my Sunsinger subclass & gear is getting upgraded like mad. Not sure if RNG God's are apologising to me for all my legendary engrams up until now being blue so far or setting me up for more blues. Will post what legendary engrams are once I get around to decoding them!

    Just the level 9 difficulty. That was a solid streak of RNG luck. Ended up with 10 purple engrams total with the crytparch level up. Got the exotic, a purple helm and trolled by hunter boots.

    My only purple is a hunter cloak, and I'm a titan!

    Too bad we can't trade lol.

    Difficulty doesn't effect drops, only strike rewards. So always go for lowest difficulty when farming.

    [–]SirAdrian0000 ps4SirAdrian0000 10ポイント11ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Medium difficulty is best because more mobs spawn.

    [–]Maggot_ff 7ポイント8ポイント  (5子コメント)

    Sooo... You sold your soul to the RNG Lord or what? 700 kills and all i got was 1 blue and 4-5 greens. The RNG Lord giveth, and the RNG Lord taketh away...

    Edit: Messed up format.

    WE'VE WOKEN THE HIVE!

    I just did this until I died 100 times because I'm OCD.

    Had about 2200 kills.

    3 Purple 8 Blue 25+ Green 10k glimmer with wax idol.

    And it took me 45 minutes or so.

    [–]TeamRedundancyTeam 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

    My run using a rare autorifle and same technique as OP:

    30 minutes 55 deaths 1206 kills

    19 green items 6 blue engrams

    [–]MLaw2008 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

    This is the first farming method I've seen and attempted that I thought, "Hmm... this really might get patched"

    It's just too damn good.

    [–]Lacho7994 3ポイント4ポイント  (6子コメント)

    So I ran it to 50 deaths. I got a Legendary engram my first run, I was amazed, I got 3 blues and a bunch of greens. Sadly I didn't get any legendary's. I even got a level on my cryptarch and got another legendary engram but nothing. So tired of not getting shit from these but w/e RNG is RNG. Doing it to 100 deaths now. Writing this inbetween deaths. Will post results later.

    UPDATE: 46 deaths, 2 more blues. The mini heart attacks I get from the heavy ammo drops are real. Just got 3 blues in a row as I'm typing this. Holy shit.

    UPDATE: 79 deaths. Got a Legendary engram. Shit ton of blues and enough Greens to build to Earth and back.

    FINAL UPDATE: So I accidentally killed everything at 92 deaths. I got 1 Purple, 9 Blues, and 44 Greens. This run fucking works!

    [–]The_Gray_Train 5ポイント6ポイント  (3子コメント)

    Just did this for about an hour, all I got were a few wax idols and silken codexes, a couple dozen greens, and eight blues. Eight. Blues. Also, it seems the drops disappear after a while.

    What have I done to offend the almighty RNG?

    [–]euro3er 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Going to try this out, thanks!

    [–]cardwarsaddict 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Just did this for about 40 minutes 8 blues 1 turned into a mote of light another was an upgrade +light gear I needed. About 15 greens low glimmer tho even with idol. Did it on level 9. Can anyone confirm higher glimmer for higher levels? Tips: don't kill the knight.
    Use wax idol. Try kill the yellow acolytes for codex worth 200 glimmer which can be used to level up cryptography guy. Don't run up at the start or they won't charge at you and you will have to hunt them slower. If u kill the knight by accident then go to orbit then start mission again and it will spawn back to the start of the run again. The mission you want is : MOON THE DARK BEYOND

    [–]BrycetheBarbarian 3ポイント4ポイント  (3子コメント)

    Did this for an hour on level 20, as a level 23. Got 15+ greens, 8 blues, and one legendary. The legendary turned out to be an exotic primary-weapon shotgun called "Universal Remote" :D

    Here's my profile if you want to take a look!

    [–]DJKest 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

    I was skeptical when I saw this but I gave it a try yesterday and this morning. Total of about 150 deaths (how I keep track of time). I got: ~12,000 glimmer, 16 blue engrams. 60 (no joke) green engrams. 6 purple engrams. ~8 "silken codex" type turn-ins. I was able to get my Cryptarch level up 2 levels from decoding all the blue and purple engrams. And each time he levels you get sweet engrams. I was able to get several motes of light and strange coins from the engrams as well.

    From that I was able to get 2 level 20 blue armors that replaced what I had before. I also got a new level 20 sniper rifle and (2) Legendary (purple) auto-rifles, and a legendary warlock bond, and legendary hunter boots. The new lvl 20 armor pieces caused me to go from level 23 to 24.

    Thanks OP. You da real MVP.

    This hasn't been said yet, if you're items are not staying after you die or if you aren't starting the mission at the gate YOU MUST BEAT THE MISSION ON THE DIFFICULTY YOU ARE TRYING TO FARM ON FIRST.

    [–]ArchitectLupton 8ポイント9ポイント  (13子コメント)

    has it been patched?

    [–]CpnDownvote 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

    It's definitely been nerfed, not getting as many drops as OP was.

    [–]xRaimon 4ポイント5ポイント  (2子コメント)

    hope not was going to try it after work -.-

    [–]ArchitectLupton 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

    I've been trying it for the last 40 minutes and the only thing I managed to get was one green engram.

    [–]KnivezXIII 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Trying it now. Doesn't seem to drop as much as the video.... =[

    [–]buttmonster 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

    Absolutely. Plus none of the items that did finally drop would be there when I re-spawned, which was weird. Dang

    [–]#WarlockMasterRaceThomasedv 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Got my first legendary from this. But from a blue engram though. But this works, did it solo. Lots of stuff, just stand there with a pulse rifle for example, and just take them down. They almost spawn instantaneously.

    [–]garretth10 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

    This is by far the best farming route (for me anyway, I have awful luck).

    [–]cardwarsaddict 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Just worked out he farmed for about 30 minutes and that's being generous, it's more likely around 25 mins

    [–]Varanae 2ポイント3ポイント  (3子コメント)

    I was just doing this but on easy and taking the time to kill every enemy. This method seems more sensible though, you still kill a bunch of stuff and it doesn't take up as much time.

    I got 25 greens, 4 blues and a purp in about an hour.

    Oh and yeah, don't kill the knight or a checkpoint triggers, everyone else is fair game. At least on easy. In the future I'd do it on a harder difficulty though, less chance to accidentally kill the knight. Plus more enemies and some glimmer equals a good time.

    [–]goodbye9hello10 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

    Oh, the checkpoint is based off killing the knight? Okay thats good. I was having a hard time figuring out why I was getting the checkpoint on level 8 or whatever. I tried it on 20 and I learned that my nade fucks up the knight, so imma go back to the level 8 and only shoot.

    [–]that1guyovrther 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Can confirm, does work. Got "Purple Stuff" within 10 minutes!

    [–]Simplekin77 2ポイント3ポイント  (6子コメント)

    Gonna try this one. I just tried the Shrine of Onyx method on lvl 12 (I'm 22) and out of 2000 kills I got 10 blue engrams a bunch of green weps and armor (no green engrams) and zero purps. I actually have yet to get a purple drop :( I did however get a shit ton of glimmer. Off we go...

    [–]borobadger 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Thanks! I did this for maybe 10 mins and got a metric shit ton of greens, and 2 blue engrams, which both turned into greens, but it looks like a great spot

    [–]BlindStark 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Got multiple blues and my first legendary from it! Thanks!

    [–]dbgtboi 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

    I love you op, got 4 blues and 1 legendary (ended up getting a rare but its better than nothing!) in 35 mins.

    ok so i was in bed, decided to check out this sub before i went to sleep, saw this post, convinced myself that i can live with 5 hours of sleep, did 20 minutes of this strategy and got nothing... up until the end (i promised that this one would be the last run) where i got a single purple engram. so I went to the cryptarch and found Truth. "the life exotic" indeed...

    [–]b4dkarm4 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Did this for one hour exactly.

    1764 Kills

    65 Deaths

    10k Glimmer (roughly)

    9 Blues

    1 Legendary

    More greens that I could count.

    Fucking solid. Im doing this every chance I get. Im almost hoping I dont get picked up to raid tomorrow night so I can just grind this out for a few hrs.

    [–]bbqbot 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Just did this. 600+ kills, 25+ deaths: 9 greens, 2 blue plans, 1 purple plan. 3 silken codex, 2 wax idol. Level 24 titan on level 9 hard.

    [–]Bum_Bandito 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Just done this for the past 2 hours

    Thanks for this! I got a bunch of greens, a few blues and one purple engram. I've gotten several purple engrams, but ended up with a rare weapon that was worse than what I currently had lol. This purple engram, though, ended up a legendary item. Finally!

    What it looked like for me after about 30-45 minutes.

    Lol at the engrams.

    My first legendary engram was a blue pulse rifle.

    Later that day, I got a really nice Rare AR from a green engram.

    My first legendary was a sniper rifle from a blue engram.

    WTF Bungie?

    [–]Metatron58 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Awesome spot thank you for sharing!

    I just wanted to point out a trick I found after doing it for awhile. If you are facing the door where they spawn move to your left and you can funnel the hive into a small passageway in the rocks. It helps ya mow em down quicker.

    Also next time i'm muting the game and putting some music on. I'll be hearing WE'VE WOKEN THE HIVE in my sleep now. ><

    I just did this a little while. 1000 kills 33 deaths, got 6 blues, a fuck tonne of greens, zero legendaries and 4 silken codex.

    Seems like an okay spot.

    [–]vikmourne 5ポイント6ポイント  (12子コメント)

    I think this has been hotfixed. I'm now only getting maybe a single green (non-engram) every 5-6 lives. It makes sense, the rate at which loot could be obtained here as suggested felt very broken.

    You need to get to the gate, once you get to the gate and start the event you will get a check point that will respawn you there when you die.

    Just did this up to 1k+ kills and my haul was 25 greens, 4 blues (2 of which became greens, other 2 were downgrades), 0 purples, and about 3k glimmer (used some black wax idols).

    I have terrible luck in this game...
