Please don't be that person who shoots the smaller blights on the "aberrations in reality" taken public event. In order to make that event heroic, we need to step in and out of the smaller blights in order to get the 4 second buff to damage the larger blight in the center.
Ever see friendlies shooting at you or meleeing you while you are shooting the smaller blights? I think they are trying to tell you something.
There is nothing more frustrating while doing public events than to see people still shooting the smaller blights and preventing the rest of us from turning the event heroic.
I understand many people still don't know this, and that's reasonable...which is why I need as many of those people to see this as possible.
UPVOTE so we can all get this loot!
Thank you for your time.

Edit:
Also great method from boogie_man_49i that I was unaware of:
"Although I'm sure there may still be some that don't know how to turn it heroic, there is also a method to the madness of shooting the first one or two [rounds of] smaller blights.
The larger blight takes less damage at each progressive [spawn] location in order to turn it heroic.
So, IF you don't have enough people on the event to take it down right away [at the first location], it's easier to just push it to the next location and turn it heroic there rather than wasting ammo on the first one."
(Great point by boogie! Clearly, I'm more so referring to instances where there are plenty of people to take it down at the first spawn location...which would be much faster than a bunch of people pushing it to the 3rd location intentionally.)
Edit 2: YES, you do get more rewards in the form of (at least) additional tokens and legendaries that frequently drop from the yellow bar enemies that spawn after the heroic trigger (e.g., think the yellow-bar war hound/dog during the heroic Cabal Drill PE or the multitude of yellow bars and the big yellow-bar that spawns during the heroic Glimmer Drill PE).
In addition to the small boost in XP and Clan XP for doing heroic PEs, you also get more XP for killing the yellow bars during heroic events simply b/c killing yellow bar enemies gives you more XP.

The only strat you need to know to solo this event: Step 1: equip Wardcliff Coil with at least four rounds available. Step 2: fire off four volleys into the big blight, returning the the little blight to reload and refresh the buff. That’s all it takes. Four volleys from WC and it turns heroic. That works at 295 light.

2 AntwortenIt's amazing how many people still don't know about this after almost 4 months of Destiny 2 being out. This one and the Cabal ship I see people constantly -blam!-ing up.

1 AntwortenOr the fruit loops who insist on getting the Walker -blam!-ing rekt before depositing all the arc charges to trigger the heroic. That one drives me nuts lol. Like, there is a reason we are unlocking those -blam!-ing scorch cannons and no it isn't so we can take the last 1/50th health off the first -blam!-ing Walker! -blam!-!

Or allow me to mow them down on my sparrow save ammo that way :)

That's ok. Some Guardians aren't taking the time to hop up top to the plates on Mercury. Just play the event and collect your token
-
The people that need to see this don't come to these forums. Too bad the internet is such a toxic environment, we can't have local voice chat.

5 AntwortenWouldn't it be nice if we could communicate with people standing right beside us?

Bearbeitet von Ruudin: 12/12/2017 12:04:17 AMIf you have the Wardcliff Coil, it's pretty simple to make the event heroic. Understandable if you don't want to waste heavy, but I don't like to take chances. Besides, the Blightmaker gets wiped pretty fast if there's 2+ people. Doable with 1

When I see a level 300 attacking smaller blights it kills me inside bit by bit How have you managed to get to this point and not figure out PE Heroic for Blight
-
Sorry man I’m one of the idiots lol
-
Thank you! I was completely unaware. I'm always getting attacked from 90 different directions at once so I never took the time to notice. I kinda feel like a jackass now.
-
Thank you. If I still played this would have been very helpful
-
Worst part is when 3 or 4 guardians are hammering the small blights and I am jumping in and out to try and take out the large one. They probably figure I am the one who doesn’t know what to do.
-
It’s the same rewards just less time spent. Thanks Bungie 🙄

Bearbeitet von Akira00x: 12/11/2017 11:34:44 PMWho the shit cares about 2 Tokens and a Blue?

The ignorance in some runs deep bro, had 5 of them doing that very thing A true WTF moment
-
If you happen to have 5 dubious volley rockets aka the ward lift coil and a pulse or plasma grenade you can trigger the heroic version by yourself. I prefer to call it dubious volley since that’s what it was in the d1 database and it’s what I know it by.
-
This, this, and this. I will mention, though. Four Dubious Volley/Wardcliff Coil volleys of rockets (Assuming they all hit) will trigger the Heroic Public Event, without fail, even at the first point. It helps make this Public Event one of the fastest in the game.
-
I didnt know this either. I was one of those shooting the small orbs cos i thought I was supposed to. If this shit so called mmo game had any ingame public chat you could tell them. but unfortunate this is the crappiest triple A game I've seen to date. I haven't even completed the CoO story yet but I just cannot be bothered to start up Destiny 2 again. Even payday2 and CounterStrike Source are more fun.
-
I haven’t even attempted the one on Mercury yet. The one time I did, it was already heroic

6 AntwortenBearbeitet von KillSelf: 12/11/2017 10:04:08 PMWait, really? I've turned it heroic by myself by just killing the smaller blights repeatedly. I didn't know there was actually a thing to hurt the blight directly. Yes, I know that isnt technically the way to do it. The point is it's worked before I even knew this was how to do it.

1 AntwortenLol... I still get people trying to kill the walker tank while I’m frantically trying to put orbs in machines. Nothing worse than being 10 feet away from delivering the last orb and seeing the tank die.... I have to wonder if they’re trolling

OMG.. People are -blam!-..

5 AntwortenThe exotic ghost that grants extra rewards for completing public events drops 5-10 tokens for me every time.

I was “lucky” enough to have to deal with these morons during the walker arsenal event. 🤦♂️
