Seriously.... who on Earth/Mars/Venus/Moon OK'd this quest????
I have 4/10 solar thingys and im gunna rip my head off and eat it if I have to open anymore helium coils. The Solar Sword will be the only exotic sword I will get.....THIS IS NOT WORTH GRINDING FOR. JUST LET ME SHOOT STUFF
Remember Y1, nobody liked farming for materials......still goes the same thing for Y2. Ya think they would learn.
"We want to lessen the grind in Y2(NOT! That was a not joke!)"

EDIT: JUST FINISHED IT! GOT MY 10TH WHATEVER. 222 FILAMENTS LATER!!!
HUUUUUUUGEEEEE SHOUTOUT TO
UNDED-EAGLE THE GREATEST HUNTER ALIVE!!! HELPED ME THROUGH HOURS OF HELIUM FILAMENTS!!
ALL HAIL!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH
Edit: was Y1 player. Look at emblems. Didn't farm in Y1 for same reason it was boring imo. Make an exciting quest for the swords. I'm grateful that they are not RNG, but it's just not that interesting of a quest

Its good if you listen to a podcast or talk with a friend
-
I feel you I've done it so many times in yr 1 I've memorized the routes xD
-
If you get a ghost that has the perk to detect the specific material you're looking for, you can get a sniper rifle with a decent range scope, ads, and you will see where all the materials are located in that area. Much quicker to do it this way.

Made my girlfriend play...got a jibber for"showing her trust".
-
I actually had fun doing patrols again. It had been a while.
-
Why not just buy the mats from the Vanguard or Crucible Quartermasters?
-
My solution, have a younger brother to run around and do it for you.
-
I did it and completed quest for Bolt-Caster, now doing it for Raze Lighter... Is it me or is it that the material for solar is harder and takes a lot longer to farm than the spinmetal for arc?

Pro tip. As soon as you get one material. Go to orbit and then come back.. For some reason (at least for me) it seemed to reset some sort of timer and I managed to get a material every 1-10 materials farmed each instance. Took me on average across all three swords about 45min
-
Took me an hour. No big deal.
-
I did in mars and in the moon...gave up from earth. Boring as hell. Damn. I have more things to do.
-
This is how I did it for the other two swords. Step 1 Find an unpopulated zone (other players can interrupt this process). Step 2 find your material and harvest it. Step 3 hop on sparrow and speed towards the nearest other zone. Step 4 when you see the next areas name load up turn around and go back. The material should be in the same exact spot ready to be harvested again. Repeat. It's best if you can find one close to where two zones meet. (I.E. the rocketyard/divide on earth). Again I haven't done the moon yet but I gathered 10 for the arc sword on earth in less than an hour this way.

A few months late with this. But yeah, they has to string us along aa long as they could.
-
Yeah only reason why i havnt gottem my solar sword is because i have two swords already i dont feel like boring myself with that again lol
-
Currently doing the solar sword quest. The void quest was annoying as hell and this is too. Collecting the items shouldn't be so complicated and iffy. It's like a 8 to 1 ratio . Pretty boring stuff. Id rather just have to kill a bunch of stuff .

Where you here year 1 ?
