It's not orbs from precision kills that grant you progress. They only orbs that grant progress are the ones created from double kills off of a masterworked weapon.
I don't believe this is intentional but we've had no response

U don’t need double kills, or master worked weapon, it just has to be a precision kill to spawn orbs. The orbs are not guaranteed on precision kills. I just completed yesterday & some headshots were w/non master worked weapons.

I know, and that is why I mentioned PRECISION KILLS. There is a bounty in Crucible, which I completed today, just like that. Again: 5 PRECISION KILLS and 2 RELVERIC ORBS. I am saying that because some people think is it just like 200 precision kills in Crucible. No. It is not. It is 500 at least.

You forgot: this is Bungie. It's RNG - for some people, it will be 100 precision kills (or, possibly, for streamers it might be 50 - wouldn't want to upset them, would we?), for others it will be 1000. Wouldn't want anything to be predictable, would we?
