Patrol is too easy
There needs to be a place that has high level enemies and plenty of them so we can fight it out!

i will typically use weapons/armor that aren't leveled up or i don't use that much while on patrol. it makes it a bit more challenging. its similar to higher level opponents.

My friends and I consider it an embarrassment to die while on patrol.

1 ReplyI'd prefer they add a level selector to the patrol maps in the same way as the missions and strikes. That way I can choose my own difficulty for the entire map. Maybe follow suite from DiabloIII torment modes with higher levels have slightly better loot drops (based on destiny's loot style that would likely be better legendary loot and engram drop chance, not actual level of gear). That builds a nice feedback loop with you getting loot, improving your character, picking a harder level, getting more loot and so on. You want the increased loot chance as the better your gear the more likely it's a side-grade rather than upgrade and you want to keep the feeling of progression going.

2 RepliesWould have been cool to have some wildlife to fight as well.

Edited by jmferris: 11/24/2014 3:59:39 PMAgreed. Easy level patrols cannot scale well with gen-pop randoms - but no reason to not put a difficulty selection on them. Then, you could get matched with gen-pop randoms who chose the same. Increase the chance/rate of drops or put an experience modifier on them (and make experience mean more than just a Mote, like increased weapon and armor leveling rates), and I would be a happy camper. Have also noticed a lot more lower-level people in the last week, in terms of gen-pop randoms. Not sure if it is people working on alts, or if we are starting to see more new players, in general. [b]Edit:[/b] As soon as I hit post, I remembered about the trial version of Destiny. Will bet that those are a good portion of that population of lower-level folks, of late.

The citadel is pretty fun. Not all that challenging but more fun than the earth and moon.

6 RepliesI just hate getting 50 patrol missions telling me to run all the way across the map to scan a pile of rocks.
-
Yes, I would like a planet geared towards harder patrols or at least patrols that can allow up to 6 man fireteams.
-
I agree. Let's get some higher level patrol options. Or maybe some interesting bad guy combos to mix shit up.
-
7 RepliesThere are very rare VIP kill missions called Troll Patrol. These missions spawn a miniboss thats on par to a public event target. Things can get pretty interesting when you get one of those

8 Repliesthe warzones are amazing, try to get to the ishtar commons in the middle of each hour or so, dudes for days Also there used to be Randal the Vandal in the forgotten shore ,but he's been nerf'd/fixed :[
-
Hard mode patrol starting at lvl 20?
-
There's a place on Mars in The Barrens where a civil war between Vex and Cabal sometimes happens. Can get quite intense.
-
They could also have harder public events that give out better drops then shards and energy.
-
You sure about that?
-
I find it funny that they nerf us against lower level pve enemies. Like it makes a difference. once you are the same level as the enemy then you can kill that enemy.

I'd like to up the level of patrols, like we can do with missions.

1 ReplyI did noticed enemys to follow me further. Looks like they're roaming. Even saw 3 pikes crossing the forgotten shores shooting up guardians. Looked awsome!
-
The Grottos on cosmodrome (always a fun place to get killed)

26 RepliesEdited by SGT 12XU: 11/23/2014 3:04:24 PMThe flash mob event at the Skywatch loot cave is intense. It spawns once in a while and can wreck you. Basically Hive and Fallen come in many waves. It can be a handful for 3-4 players from what I remember. That was long ago, so maybe it's easy now (much higher level now). Edit: the Vex/Fallen flash mob on Venus by the Fallen crashed ship. That mob spawn goes off. I got wrecked there once. Four Minotaurs and three Captains were all over me...along with 30 other enemies.
-
If patrols need a buff, loot box rewards need a buff to match.
-
On earth if the hive and fallen really get serious it can be crazy
-
There are
-
I agree. With the higher level patrols not only are enemies harder, but you get more rep & exp for them
-
Just put on the ak-47 you get at the start of the campaign. It has 20 damage. Patrol instantly harder.
