The rewards don’t match the time investment/boredom factor.
100 fractalines for killing 125 cabal with precision bow kills ?
Is anybody wasting their time on this?
This game is turning into such a chore.
Edit: I removed some language that detracted from my point.

It's almost like you have an entire week to earn them

96 отв.I'll give feedback that you aren't enjoying the obelisk bounties. Let me know what suggestions you have on improving them. Thanks.

Agreed too much grinding for simple random rolls
-
I don’t think i agree with you very often, but in this case i do. While weeklies should take longer than dailies, they should also be things that you’ll do organically while playing your activities. When you have to play a specific structured way for extended period to get it done, focusing just on the bounties requirements, it starts to kill the fun you’re [i]supposed[/i] to be having.

I spent about 5 hours today doing evry weekly bounty on my titan. Gotta say, it was soooo boring
-
7 отв.They are the easiest to complete. They complete themselves while you're playing other activities. You can't get 20 odd bow kills a day?? What are you doing, sitting in the Tower watching the ships go by??!
-
Can't help but agree .. They make me have to set my time back 3 years on my ps4 so I dont have to fight with other players to complete these bounties .. At the very least if they are being done in a strike or something they should count teammates kills.. Also..just to throw some more things out there .. This eva daily bounties should be rewarding us 5-10 (minimum) dawning essence instead of null taste sharp flavor etc etc .. Patrols give 1 essence.. Public events are 3 .. Strikes are 16 I believe..
-
2 отв.Dont do them then. You can just do crucible if you'd like. At least these bounties guarantee a lot of fractalines.

7 отв.Key word “Weekly”

1 ответ"Fractiline for what?" is the question...there's nothing exceptional to work for. Gotta be better than what I already have.

4 отв.This season is becoming even more boring than Anthem was with how that game handled missions and progress. This is something serious. This entire season is going to be a major rip off like the expansion itself, i should have known better than to throw money at Bungie yet again, this company never changes, they did a good job with the previous year and i opted out of the entire thing and bought the stuff 50% off at a later date, thought they would keep it up with this year with similiar content but nah, of course they had to step down again. I really should have paid attention to all of the stuff going on. Bungie giving away a good portion of the game away for free had to have more reasoning behind it other than "being good" or "need more players", the plan all along was to potentially shut up critics that could bring the game down. They already made a step down on the cosmetics recently, we now have lots more paid cosmetics than before. Sure we have the possibility to "grind dust", but what is the point of grinding dust when like 50% or more of the items are behind a pay wall for silver. They made a step down on the expansion/season this time around, it is by far the weakest expansion/seasons in the life cycle of both D1 and D2, the only positive side to this expansion is the lore since it is a direct continuation of what was left behind with D2 vanilla. And now they decided to also step down on the quests/bounties, this game is boring as hell. I noticed how they nerfed a good portion of the bounties from the 3 major activities this season. It is like they already knew the whining would come so they nerfed one aspect of the game and make it slightly easier on us while doubling or tripling down the grind on the newer bounties this season, i mean... it is obvious at this point. Everytime i buy stuff early for Destiny i regret shortly after, the only two moments i did no regret completly was TTK and Rise of Iron from D1 (the regret aspect at the time was getting the complete deal for a much cheaper price than what me and many others had to pay for, like having 90-100 bucks worth of content sold for 20 bucks a year later with TTK, or having all previous content + rise of iron for 60 bucks).

Изменено (PyroAJM): 12/20/2019 6:21:25 AMThis isn't going to be a huge time saver, but for anyone doing the bounty from this week for 60 void ability kills, getting kills with a void sword with no ammo counts as a melee ability kill for that bounty. Also, if that void sword you're using happens to be Black Talon, those ammo-less kills will also count towards the catalyst.
-
300 Scorn per character. 900! It has become a boring job. Even if you find a good place to farm stuff it’s a slog.
-
11 отв.Tangled Shore is the fastest way to do all the bounties. The only one I hate is 20 captain kills. Cabal kills - Soriks Cut when you spawn go right into the mine kill everything reload instance go back and repeat. Scorn - Lost Sector in Thieves Landing kill everything run back to bridge run back and repeat. Hive - Jensym I think it's called? left of thieves landing, the hive spawn pretty quickly. Make sure to use a void class while doing this to use your super once in awhile to get void kills. When you do the scorn kills use Symmetry, revolution counts towards triple kills and you'll finish the scout bounty before you finish scorn kills. I only had to switch planets twice Nessus for Vex and Earth for captains, it's actually a short grind when you know where to farm.
-
The only bounty I do not really like is the captain one. But it's easy enough when you know what to do.
-
Изменено (OldManVanDerBoom): 12/18/2019 8:13:08 PMAgree. 100 bow kills or 100 Cabal kills is something you get done while doing other things. But 125 precision bow final blows on Cabal (for which explosive head arrow explosion kills dont count btw) or the 200 scout rifle mult kill are just needlessly grindy & annoying.
-
Agreed, only some of the Obelisk bounties are super tedious and not enjoyable. Example, 125 precision bow kills on Cabal? I dragged myself through that. 20 Fallen Captains? Rapidly defeat enemies in groups of 3 with a scout without reloading, 180 kills.. whereas the other bounties like 300 scorn kills, regular Vex and Cabal kills are perfect. Should definitely award more Fractaline too. Tone down the requirements it'll be perfect, atm some of the bounties are real tedious and boring. Other than that the content is fantastic! Just find I'm spending way too much time doing the Obelisk bounties.

1 ответThe best line I’ve heard criticizing a video-game-grind was for an old Grand Theft Auto at a Gaming Expo: “A game needs to be fun. It should be about [i]choices[/i] not [i]chores[/i].” That was like 15 years ago, but that quote still sticks with me, when I start getting bored with the grind. 😏
-
I think they're fine. I do them all in the background while playing anyway.
-
It seems better to just upgrade the Obelisks far enough where you can play other activities and get the Fractalines from those sources instead. Kinda sounds like a Chalice of Opulence situation here, doesn't it?
-
Meanwhile, I saw a post asking for more Fractiline drops... Lol, seriously? If you do the 8 bounties on all three characters (which isn't a huge time investment if you know where to go to get them done as quickly as possible) they will allow you to level 1 Obelisk to 10 per week with Fractiline left over. That doesn't include what you may get from doing actual activities in between. I'd say it's pretty good for no more than you have to do.
-
This game has turned into ' go to Leviathan and farm kills for catylst' 'Go to Leviathan and get kills for bounties' 🤣🤣🤣
-
4 отв.You can do the Hive and scout rifle kills pretty dang quick either in EP lvl 1 or just pop into the LS and run it a few times. You can also run say rockets or linear fusion rifle bounties as well. Cabal + Wish Ender on Leviathan I had another one but can't remember what it was but I completed it while running strikes so it could not have been that bad. Last weeks Mars bounties were nice, fast and easy to complete. Loved those and 'thought' I'd see those again this week so it was a no brainier to grab them. Slapped myself when I looked at them.
-
Yes more grind=more rewards or replayable bounties. 8 per character isn’t enough especially if you want to farm weapons and upgrade your stations
-
Agreed, giving it a miss as well.
