Tricks and Tips: Help a Guardian out. (Even veterans may learn something).
Firstly, please don't post anything negative or unhelpful. Don't be THAT guy.
I gave a tip on another thread and it was pointed out that A) many people didn't know about it and B) this forum needs to be more helpful.
Here's my tip:
[b]Put field scout on your Thunderlord and reload so you have 60 rounds in the mag. Now change its perks to be more stable. You'll still have 60 rounds but you'll have more stability. Great for more Crits and higher DPS. This works for any gun but best with Thunderlord[/b]
If you have a tip that you think that not many people know about, post it in [b]bold[/b] for everyone to see and be enlightened.
Happy hunting Guardians.
Edit: I would like to commend all posters. Not only have I learned things that I never knew (and I've been playing since Alpha) but this post proves that the forums aren't full of douches. Many thanks.
Edit 2: There are some amazing tips on this thread. [b]Keep scrolling down and read, I'm sure there will be something that you didn't know.[/b] Please read before you post so that tips aren't repeated over and over. Many thanks.
Edit 3: [b][u]This thread has been so invaluable to so many that I will keep shamelessly bumping it for all to see. Keep adding your tips Guardians.[/u][/b]

2 RepliesThe mission "Fist of Crota" is the single most useful one for doing bounties in the entire game. Fallen majors: one drops from the ship at the very start, as well as other clustered dregs and such for grenade kills for the "kill enemies with solar or arc abilities". For Hive majors, you can skip everything and kill the Blade of Crota, and the boss as well if you want. (If you struggle with the boss and have a Striker Titan, just chunk a flash grenade and wail on him while he is blind.) Overcharge bounty? Stand in the room near where Omnigul floats and kill the thrills in groups as they approach. Also useful for Eris' "kill x hive at once with special/heavy, as you can do all this in relative safety so you don't die and reset the bounty. Even the "kill cursed thralls with melee" bounty is easily done here as you can thin them out and retreat to heal, then just go to orbit to rinse/repeat. The whole first area is useful for "melee kill 30 enemies" and the headshot bounty and "kill 100 enemies without dying" as they move slowly and don't pose much of a threat. Obviously, the "kill Blades of Crota" and "Cut the down" bounties are easily done by just running past everything. Due to the spawns, the "precision kills with hunting knife is easy on the early acolytes outside, the kneeling acolytes at the Blade, and on the rushing thralls both outside and in the room after the Blade. For the Fist of Havoc, ArcBlade and Nova Bomb mass-kill bounties, after the Blade run past the first wave of thralls in the next room and stop next to the bank oil-tank thing, then use super. You'll complete the bounty in one super and feel like a badass. (Also useful for generating a bunch of orbs for that bounty.) For "Kill Hive from behind", use the kneeling acolytes at Blade and the rushing thralls in the next room after Blade. (Easiest with sword equipped, use right trigger strong attack after running past them as they will be facing away from you and you can kill them in one downward smash.) I also use this mission for the Unstoppable bounty as I can finish a strike, then make a couple quick runs on Fist of Crota and get to 9000 Xp in relative safety. This mission even counts as Cosmodrome for the purpose of the "collect sprites for kills" bounty. I'm sure there are others that I missed as well, but hopefully this info helps.
