Because farming gives you the same amount, if not, more loot then you would in a strike or whatever. Why go through the trouble of constantly dying, leaving teammates, and bullet sponge bosses when you have an easier time getting 5 times the rewards farming the cave.
Don't deny it, YOU KNOW ITS TRUE!!!

I only use the cave to level my special and heavy weapons faster. *shrug*
-
Because you like the sweet vibrations of a tractor?
-
Because mama told me to make an honest living. So I became a farmer.
-
You know actually playing the missions with a team and winning is a lot more satisfying and enjoyable than just farming for gear. What's the point of getting better gear anyway to help you farm even more efficiently??
-
Why do you naysayers care so much? Keep doing what you do and the farmers will keep doing what they do. You people are like the ones complaining about how gay marriage is going to ruin it for everyone else. Grow up.
-
I'd rather earn by doing a raid u can see by my titan my gear is 10 times better than urs and if ur bored start a new guy as i hav and guess what its fun to do not standing in the same place for an hour to get a couple of okay items when you can do a strike get marks n buy the great gear better yet go on during the weeken n get yellow gear i have yellow by NOT farmming
-
I want to know why you are farming, because buying gear from vanguard and crucible marks has guaranteed results, takes far less time, and isn't as monotonous.
-
Lmao look at your gear! Your doing it for what? Have fun, stay out of my game modes...... My purchased equipment > your crappy loot drops any day. The only things farmings good for is breaking all that down for upgrades
-
if purples gave purples and high level enemies dropped purples on some sought of regularity we'd all be running the highest levels we could, since anything can drop anything, and purples can be anything it only makes sense to loot cave, plus every now and again you get a public event and then you get the little wars break out which are nice distractions, then grind again.
-
Because you suck dick and can't complete the harder strikes for gear?
-
Sounds like you can't handle the truth
-
Enjoy your ~30% chance of getting a legendary from engrams while i'm guaranteed them through crucible and vanguard marks while enjoying the game with friends.

Edited by DisarmedSpectre: 9/23/2014 10:47:56 AMWell in all honesty how do you see what your doing as farming? Do alot of MMOs u play have areas you go to kill enemies that spawn every couple seconds for end game loot? Because all the ones Ive played you farmed for items and the enemies werent stacked up one shotters for endgame items.. Maybe as a console gamer you feel rushed?
-
I also farm because it's really the best way to interact with strangers. Sure you're doing nothing, until an event kicks in and you have to trust randoms to wreck shit with you.
-
I do strikes, pvp, and farm. I got good gear while doing all methods. Nobody cares about "how" you get gear, just as long as you eventually get it. Just play the game how you want to play and -blam!- everyone else's opinions. :)
-
You gotta be a very sad person to want to "farm" just play the damn game ffs
-
Because the loot system sucks?
-
The loot system in this game is so screwed up. The only legendary primary iv'e received is from a blue engram.. from the CAVE. Legendary and Exotic engrams need to be fixed, because I have yet to see anything above blue from them. Rewards from strikes and crucible matches need dramatically higher chance for superior loot.
-
At least strikes make us feel like we've earned our rewards. Btw I will dance in that cave for the rest of Bungie's ten year plan.
-
i honestly dont see why people get upset at people farming the cave..it has zero impact on anyone else playing the game. if someone chooses to sit in one spot and shoot fish is barrel for their $60, I say let them, they paid for the game, who are they to say how someone should play the game they bought?
-
Lvl 40cryptarch. Cant touch this.
-
True... Strike loot needs to be different. If I can predict a loot table on the strike or on the boss drops then strikes become very valuable... But if it's just as random as a cave that has lvl 5 guys... Then why would I farm a strike... Why not just do the strike once so I can see the content and then head to the cave for my rewards?
-
Well farming is in here because the loot system is wacky. Plus, as a Destiny player who primarily plays RPGs - farming is my go-to method of getting loot. Not only will I have a better chance of loot, I also get Xp for my MoL and materials from those green engrams.

because impatient

I thought you guys just like your sexy tractors.

Because its like virtually sitting on the couch and using a broomstick to change the channel?
