So last night I was collecting relic whatzits in the Cosmodrome (thought we were doing away with that bounty? Anyway) and saw a Warsat Public Event kick off in the Skywatch zone, very near the crashed Hive Seeder. Didn't feel like screwing around with that, and I was in a safe-ish location (near helicopters), so I just settled in to watch. Lo and behold, a named Hive boss shows up & starts knocking Guardians around like a kid working a pile of leaves. I shrugged, crouched down & brought out my Legendary Scout Rifle ("The Calling"). It's modded for maximum range; I can generally reliably snipe with it from almost halfway across a map. I started pumping rounds into the boss & apparently got lucky enough to score the killshot because the Grimoire card dropped. Score! Now, here's the maybe-exploity-bit: almost immediately after the boss died, the event ended & I scored Gold Tier. I was not participating in the event--I was a fair distance away--but still scored Gold Tier. No risk, max reward...that can't be right. Just wanted to bring this to Bungie's attention.
