Grenade Kills in Strikes (FWC) - Nightfall has torrent. Go in solo and use grenades as much as you want, plus since you can go solo, nobody else will be around to steal your kills.
Public Events (FWC) - EDZ. There's almost always one either about to start or already underway.
Power Weapon Kills - Sword is good for this, as you can kill plenty of weaker adds without running out of ammo.
Super Kills in EDZ + Generate Orbs (NM) - If you're a Hunter and have Orpheus Rig, use it and run public events (Glimmer extraction is best). If you're not, team up with a Hunter that does and use the orbs they generate to fuel your own Super. Also, using a Rocket Launcher Masterwork helps a lot.
Patrols in EDZ (NM) - Patrols that involve you just moving to an adjacent area and standing still in a certain spot tend to go by the quickest.
Lost Sectors not on Earth (DO) - Spawn on Titan by the NPC. Turn left, jump off the platform in the direction of an adjacent platform, there's a lost sector under some stairs just ahead. Go in, kill the wizard, grab the chest, then fast travel back to the start and repeat.
Melee kills not on Earth (DO) - Just run around on Titan punching everything you see. Try to target weaker enemies, as there's more of them and they die easily.
Precision kills (DO) - You could probably go Nightfall and use the fact that you can run it solo to your advantage. Get precision kills on every enemy using whatever weapons you prefer, and nobody else will be able to steal your kills.

Thanks for taking the time to write this.

Great tips. Might I add for Lost Sectors on Titan, you can easily complete the melee and headshots there as well. There are many one shot enemies in there.

I just want to say thanks for this post. It is so refreshing to find a helpful post on this forum rather than the mindless poison spewed by so many others.

Another item for super kills in EDZ for NM. Use you super to kill ads, then look at the map for an upcoming public event. Go there, tag the flag to instantly re-power your super, rinse and repeat. Also, you can fast travel to another area, use your super, then go back to the public event area (provided it has not started yet) and re-power up. You can do this over and over until the public event starts.

Great post, thanks!

A couple for power weapon kills - there's a lost sector on Titan right behind the portal for the Witches' Ritual public event. There's lots of thralls in there. Let them swarm you, then blow yourself up with a rocket. If you're in a Glimmer Extraction public event, if you trigger the heroic version, the Fallen skiffs continuously drop of enemies in the same spot, making them easy to take out with rockets.

One more tip to expand on the power weapon kills - go to the Leviathan Raid, open the underbelly with the switches (1, 5, 3, 2, 4, 6) then go to the engine room and equip your sword. Go in, kill all ads, get full power ammo, go outside, re-open the door, rinse and repeat. You will be finished with power weapon kills in about a half hour.

Super helpful post! Thanks!

This is a great post. I figured out the spamming grenades in nightfall, but using a sword for power kills and having my hunter commit to NM would've been good to know. I think it is important to note that when you unlock an ornament for a faction, your other characters (even if they are a different class or don't have the armor yet) will also have that ornament. I feel like Bungie didn't really make this clear.

Bump for later
