Just a quick reminder and clarification here, guys: Forum Ninjas are [b][u]volunteer community members[/b][/u], just like you. We've been around the forums for awhile, and we have some extra tools to deal with violations of the Code of Conduct (bad posts, etc.), but we have [b][u]no official status when it comes to Bungie itself, Destiny, or other Bungie games[/b][/u]. Anytime a Ninja comments on an aspect of the game, the company, or its policies, we are expressing our personal opinions, not an official stance. Thanks.

Edited by Jittery: 9/24/2014 3:55:00 AMPeople say play the game how YOU want right? Then I want to play by sitting and dancing in front of the cave as I have some friends with me as we play poker. I don't give a COOKIE (yes, I said cookie) who says anything. In my eyes there is 2 types of farming. Legit farming where you ACTUALLY got to try and then there is go to the lowest lvl area and kill things and get lucky. Which I went their and tested it I was their for 10-40minutes and got 2 legendaries and 8blues along with 10greens. I think Bungie should add MORE hive/fallen their to make it more difficult to farm it. The game was made to make people try hard and work for there gear not be a hand out. And for those who are farming it and reading this which I can bet you are right now, go farm somewhere more difficult that way people stop complaining because you will have people like me who will record everything you say and do and you will look stupid on youtube as you angerily shoot, ram the characters or attempt too to get out of the cave. I hope Bungie nerfs the cave of its drops or adds monsters to make it harder therefore not everyone can just be running around in legendary gear so easily. Your not even working for it so why should you have it? Because the cryptarch gives you crap gear even though you did try in the begining? Well, tough. We all go and farm day and day and still get nothing but its the satisfactory of finally getting something good because you worked for it not because you sat in a lvl 8 area as your lvl 20+ killing things in 5-8hits as you watched all the engrams and ammo drop left and right. There may not be anything wrong with this and bungie may never nerf it but that doesn't mean people won't stop standing inside the cave either. There is nothing against it so reporting people for it is useless. Anywho, my point is both sides are right so both sides should stop complaining because neither side will win this arguement until Bungie says something. Till then you will get those people who farm it and those who like to piss off others and sit in it. Edit: 6 out of 10 who reply to this are the people who sit at the cave and hope I am not on there console so they can sit their and farm. Edit 2: My goal is to hit at LEAST 50replies. MAKE IT COME TRUE! lmao I know this post is going to tick off least 7 out of 10 people who actually sit their for hours farming it. I also don't know why there mad if you don't know if I am on playstation or Xbox or even both. So, why be mad if you don't know? Edit 3: I am amazed on how kids and adults react to the things they read online when most the time the things they read are never true and a [b]troll [/b] is present. But yet, people get mad anyways and flip tables out of anger. Edit 4: Do people not like trolls anymore? I mean people watch it happen everyday from what I know :D anywho DANCE PARTY! DANCE WITH ME! [spoiler]GET To DA CHOPPA NOW[/spoiler] Edit 5: If you actually think I am going to sit infront of a cave and waste my time then you need to rethink that. If I really wanted to tick people off I would just go to pvp and "hard scope" people while I am in the far back on a rock or something and just dance or t-bag after every kill to tick off people. Like seriously, why would I sit infront of a cave with a 2-5% chance at a legendary drop rate when I can get at least an 8% in PvP. In all honestly if anyone who sat at that cave till people left then they would need to run to another cave and sit their. Edit 6: My ADHD is kicking in and I am to tired to read all of this crap props to anyone who sits here and reads my horrible grammar. Edit 7:.....Im bored......sleepy.......a tad peckish...........to lazy to move........abit of drool dripping dow nthe side of my mouth.......should I wipe it...ooh nevermind it fell........still abit hungry......

I love the people that dance in the cave. True guardians. They are playing you hardcore; farming your tears as you go to orbit and back.

Forum Moderators are not Bungie employees. Bungie has officially announced nothing.

Edited by tombok90: 9/24/2014 6:57:34 AMSorry your wrong, read the entire thread, the ninja even states its not an official response. "It's not an official response, but I do know that loot farming does not violate the Terms and Conditions. :) Remember, ninjas aren't Bungie employees. We're community members. Rock on." This was posted by Shacker on a response by some one stating that it was bungie's official stance on the cave hole.

Cave is love, Cave is life

Guys, guys, this guy is right. Let us all come together black and white and farm the cave. Let us not discriminate - let us treat each other with respect - let Friday 26th be known from this forth as Desticave Day!! Let us drink from the same Cave! Let us sit on the same side of the spawn bubble! Desticave Day! Desticave Day!
-
Yep. Bungie has solidified that they have no blaming idea what they are doing with this game anymore
-
Unfortunately for cave farmers. I'm going to continue enjoying my spelunking and dancing in said cave while others shoot at me. I'll be doing this until Bungie actually implements a smart loot system. Such as: Mobs below your level dropping nothing but greens as a source of farming dismantle/upgrade mats. Higher levels dropping greens and blues with a chance to drop legendaries. Bosses and noteworthy bullet sponges during raids dropping possible greens, blues with an increased drop chance at a legendary and a very very slim chance at dropping an Exotic. THAT is how the loot should be working in this game. Not by dumbing it down for those who are mentally unable to comprehend how a FPS/RPGesque game should be working.
-
Still pathetic either way
-
How sad..I'm ashamed of Bungie.
-
By sitting in the cave for safety reasons I am playing the game how I want to. I also like spelunking.
-
We are actually defending the Last City by keeping the Hive enemy pinned down in the cave system....
-
nice. very nice indeed.
-
By your name cavernous are you referring to your anus being cavernous?
-
You're wrong.

Edited by NathanW18: 9/24/2014 3:38:23 AMIs this moderator a Bungie employee? I have no idea why people are complaining about others farming, but having an official stance from Bungie on this would at least stop some of the constant loot cave threads. It baffes my mind why someone whould waste their free time standing in a cave, only in an attempt to frustrate other players. Bungie does not need other players to police their game. They're fully capable of hotfixing the spawns if they wish to.

Boom roasted

I know far better farming spots, but I still like the cave. You always meet people there and there is a chance for a world event. It is also a great place to complete certain vanguard quests. I myself have sat in front of the cave just to mess with some real life friends. Regardless people shouldn't be mad at people for farming the cave nor should people be mad at people for preventing it. Just hop into orbit and go back to earth if you care that much. Also when you guys get full legendaries you are gonna realize you should have been farming ascendant materials :P

In yo face Cave-haters!

Edited by DisarmedSpectre: 9/24/2014 4:39:15 AMWho cares about the cave? Its a cave why do we all talk about it so much its a hole... Shouldnt be dropping legendarys but whatever!
-
Cue several hundred replies that have already been posted several hundred times...
-
I tried this method to gear up and I received around 15 legendary engrams for my efforts...unfortunately I didn't get anything that I could use except the occasional strange coin. I did get an exotic titan helmet...but I'm a hunter. Maybe I can wear it in a few months once I level a titan T_T
-
My damn phone wont let me open the link. So im going to say what i think the ninja said. "For those of you who farm, go ahead, its part of the game. For those of you who dont, thats ok too" Then he breaks out the cherry poptarts to celebrate a hard days work. Am i close at least??
-
I don't understand why this method makes people so pissy. I payed 100 bucks for this game its my "destiny" to play my own way. If they patch it I ain't even mad.
