The grind is real! Void ability kills with the hunter is no joke!
Let me start by saying that I understand the grind maybe sometimes I even enjoy the grind.
Running the solar version of this questline with my titan was a blast. It took me 3 hours but I did it anyway since the reward is worth it.
However getting the void ability kills for the 'a sword reforged' quest line with my hunter is just ridiculous.
I manage to get about 10% void ability kills in the first hour. In no way on par with the five out of ten materials gathered.
Having no void melee and having a super that doesn't generate void kills grenades are your only option.
Bungie really needs to take a look at this.
Maybe make killed tethered enemies count as ability kills or up the percentage gained?
If anyone has any suggestions please reply below.
I'm back to the grind, 9 hours to go :(
EDIT: used 'the dark beyond mission' method.
The 9 hours turned into 30 minutes :)
Still I don't think this is the way bungie intended us to play this game...

I used blood born and vortex on the first mission on the moon took me an hour and a half

Quiver and vortex grenade. You're welcome.

5 RepliesImagine doing the void kills as a titan, it's pretty awful

4 RepliesThat's why you should do the solar on titan, void on warlock and arc on Hunter. Thanks to those currently suffering on that quest, your impulsive light paved the way for others.
-
Quiver gives you 3 shots. Envenomed deals some damage, not on par with other melees though.
-
You are doing it wrong if it takes you that long.

1 ReplyUse a void weapon and finish in 15 min.

2 RepliesI think I have that one, I tried it too and got nothing for it. It's a long one. My plan is to kill dregs with my grenade for several hours. It's what fifty kills right? Unless I have a different one. It's a bit frustrating.
-
I'm in the same boat man. I found out it counts in the raid though so I gained a ton of kills trying to beat it yesterday.

3 RepliesI'm doing this same quest, but on my Warlock. I'm stuck killing three Knights with 1 super. I've tried Radiance (Radiant Skin + Radiant Will) and Stormtrance (Transcendence) with no luck. Any tips? :(

1 Reply"We've woken the Hive!" Do that mission on that checkpoint, with envenomed on your smokes, the last grenade, and lockdown. Kill big hordes with grenades. Use quiver so you can direct impact acolytes/thrall. Regular kills with guns won't count even if the enemies are tethered. This is what I did and averaged 2-3% each time. Let them kill you, respawn at the checkpoint get your super, rinse and repeat. Boring grind, but it's the fastest I found.

I feel your struggle. I picked void on my titan. It took the better part of 2 days grinding but it got done.

1 ReplyDoes it have to be on patrol? If not (and on ps4) do the echo chamber strike. Get the shiny ball and start tossing nades every 3 seconds or so. Don't have this quest yet, just trying to offer some help!
-
Wow... You really need to rethink your setup...
-
My smoke counted for me.. and if you have quiver unlocked that would be 3 kills every super.
-
So uh titan or hunter for void? Both seem rough but I didn't know about the exotic quest and got the solar on my warlock
-
1 ReplyWhat quest is this?

1 ReplyHa, I did solar. Solar titan has melee which instantly resets with kill. It was a breeze. Just waiting for armsday to continue.

2 RepliesEdited by ERWIN: 9/21/2015 4:17:31 PMDoing the Dark Beyond mission on 240 light helps. With Lockdown, void wall grenade, and envenomed. Helps a lot
-
Arc for me, boy was it easy on my hunter.

3 RepliesTry being a defender...

1 ReplyI really hope smoke grenade with poison works for void kills. If so, this will be a breeze. Monte Carlo + Sealed ahamkara grasps = nearly infinite smoke nades.
-
1) 1st mission on the moon. Nuff said. Got it done in no time. 2) be happy you have a super to get kills with, because it's Titans that should be the ones complaining. All they have is a grenade and melee for void kills.
-
It took me a few mjnutes. Put shadow shot on the one that enemies explode. This is so easy

3 RepliesYou realize that you can just wait for Mayhem to show up, right?
