Alternative Glimmer/XP/Bounty Farm

First post on the forums, lets see if I can get trending! Please grind thru the wall of text. You can skim over it and still get the clear message. For those of you that aren't aware there is a spot that is way better than the "We've woken the Hive!" door on The Dark Beyond. Siege of the Warmind. Heres the breakdown: At level 30: --2 Knights-- --6 Acolytes-- --35-40 Thrall-- --3 of which are Hallowed Thrall(yes, Hive Majors that are Thrall)-- There is a 3rd Knight, which is a Hallowed knight. Dont kill him just like the Knight at the Dark Beyond door. -Note- This Hallowed Knight has a Hive Shredder and NOT a Boomer. It takes him forever to kill you. More on that in a sec. You can complete nearly EVERY bounty that you do at the Dark Beyond, with greater effect. Examples of Bounties you can do: -All in the Head -Knuckleduster -Cleansing Light -Overcharge -Predator and Pray -Unstoppable -Hive Majors Most of Eris' Bounties Heres how to go about it: -Get to the checkpoint(see pics). -Pop a Black Wax Idol -Kill everything on the way to the stairs -Kill 5-6 waves of Thrall for Bounties -Reset checkpoint by jumping off the sides -Note- The Knight is a Level 30 Hallowed Knight with a Shredder, you wont "accidently" kill this one. And he'll take forever to kill you. When done well this run nets you: ~350 Glimmer(with Black Wax Idol buff) ~875 experience(had Unstoppable reset to measure this each time, its accurate) ~35-40 Thrall kills for bounties(Overcharge, etc) I did this run dozens of times, when timed it take approx. 90 seconds to do a run and jump off. In 1 Black Wax Idol, with variation, you can complete about 6-7 runs in 10 minutes. That nets you: ~2450 Glimmer ~6125 XP ~350 Kills for various Bounties In 1 Hour you can obtain: ~15000 Glimmer(2 Xur Upgrades) ~36750 XP(good for those Exotics you had to reset/relevel/upgrade) ~Lots of Kills for whatever you would need thousands of kills for. (approx 2100 kills) Also, you get additional Black Wax Idols that drop as loot, as well as Silken Codex's, increasing your Glimmer more. You can NEVER go into the negatives with Black Wax Idols doing this method. Oh and Green Engrams galore. Thats to be expected though. This whole method can be sped up with 2 or 3 people. I only did it Solo. Group timers would be harder, simply because it would depend on the group. But just faster in general. Hope people see this and try it. Im not claiming to be "Original Glimmer farm finder" I just did the math behind what most already know. Have fun and report your success! http://i1303.photobucket.com/albums/ag153/gage_walker1/IMG_20141218_084537356_HDR_zps80aa15a8.jpg http://i1303.photobucket.com/albums/ag153/gage_walker1/IMG_20141218_084644441_HDR_zps87996016.jpg http://i1303.photobucket.com/albums/ag153/gage_walker1/IMG_20141218_091946226_HDR_zpsc0ce1396.jpg http://i1303.photobucket.com/albums/ag153/gage_walker1/IMG_20141218_092005780_zpsef32b0fd.jpg
