i personally dont care if other people do it but deep down you all know it is an exploit. the fact that all these people are trying to justify it as the way the game should be played is what frustrates me. i am 98% certain that the during the design phase of this game the devs were not thinking "hey wouldnt it be cool if there was a cave where all the players could go to endlesly spawn kill hive to farm for loot thats supposed to take them days to aquire in an hour or so and completely negate all the other stuff we are throwing into game for them to enjoy? "
edit: this just in! looks like they nerfed the spawn rate of that cave!! guess all you guys in the comments who said if it was an exploit it would be fixed just got proven right!
edit two: Also here is a quote from the news page.
[quote] shooting at a black hole for hours on end isn't our dream for how Destiny is played. Our hope is that social engagement in public spaces is only one part of the Destiny experience. Expect changes soon which decrease the efficiency of cave farming and correspondingly increase engram drops from completing activities.[/quote]

Then don't do it your self
-
I don't see how letting them leave the cave is any different. It's just a bottleneck tactic. Not like clutching or any ACTUAL exploit
-
xD... Clearly youve never played an mmo before child.
-
What makes me laugh even more are the "I hate people that Farm" comments but yet they've done it themselves. Maybe if the game didn't require so much of a grind all the time people wouldn't do it.
-
Aaaand reported for trolling.
-
Just stop. What farmers do has no impact on your game. Who cares if it is an exploit or not, just play the game as you want.

Butthurt guy who's never gotten a legendary hue hue hue
-
Dude the legendary engrams you get are almost never legendary and if they are they are a different class than yours so I think that justifies the exploiting
-
Honestly, I don't really care. Gets shit done. Can't complain. If they patch it, won't complain either. They're other places to do almost the exact same thing all over the patrols in different planets. And hell I know bungie has heard of this by now and probably said "-blam!- it it isn't game breaking"
-
Clearly you're a console-exclusive gamer and have never played a half decent MMO.
-
Deep down I wonder what's going on in kids head to think it's an exploit. Using the cave and constantly play in strikes, the only difference is people seem to think they are better. Bungie should patch the moaners games so that they can only do each strike once, and enemies no longer spawn once killed just so you realise THE GAME IS ABOUT FARMING
-
Farming is a thing. Maybe they didnt intend it. But shit happens.

Edited by III URBAN III: 9/20/2014 11:12:54 PMApparently they did lol Must have been a great idea of the lead designer Oh forgot to say/ask, haven't checked myself but didn't the farming method via killing Vex then jumping off the cliff get patched?
-
its not an exploit, if you wanna be technical its spawn killing. killing everything just as it spawns
