Just started, sick of high levels rushing strikes
I cant get the xp and kill and bounties i need because these lvl 150+ people rush thru all the enemies, despawn them, force thru to loading level, and all out ignoring the fact a lvl 15 is clawing his way to gathering glimmer and xp. Another thing, why are these overpowered levels playing on strikes? Isnt that what the nightfall is for? Getting loot split between people that need to level up, and those that obviously have no beed whatsoever, is pretty messed up. I leave lobbies anymore because within the first 10-25 seconds, everything is completely rushed thru. Maybe make a penalty for rushing, less enemies killed, more score penalty?

Personally, I do the normal strikes 3 times a week for the pinnacle gear, so that's one reason
-
2 RepliesHow can a score penalty be implemented if there isn't even a score tracker in the strike playlist to begin with?? 😂😂 Get some movement exotics and you'll be just as fast as us 👍

I need my vanguard rank up to get the ornament and curb stomping the strike in less than 5 min is the only way i dont go insane grinding the same like 8 strikes

It's just easier to do that than fight for kills. If you do that do not go into lost sectors as they will be considered 1320 and will be harder to fight.

I agree its very frustrating, but i think its not so much a problem of people rushing easy content, but more that alot of the bounties in d2 instill a feeling of “competing against your teamates” for progress, strikes in particular are horrible for this because most strikes are so quick and dont spawn that many enemies relative to what a well equipped gaurdian is capable of killing that people feel the only way to get there progress is to rush through content.
-
I agree it is annoying, but best way to level up is to keep equiping blue armour then higher drops most times. Its a fast way of increasing. Keep doing your pinnacle and quest lines

Edited by destiny2chillout: 11/4/2021 10:31:30 AMThe easiest way for me to do bounties is to start up the EDZ strike. As soon as you spawn run up into one of the lost sectors, I think there are 3 near where you spawn. You can usually do two lost sectors before you get pulled to the guy's that are speed running the strike. 1st lost sector ( do my hand cannon, sword and a few grenade kills ) 2nd lost sector ( do my pulse rifle, bow and a few grenade kills ) by the time you get pulled through your super should be ready. Doing this strike twice usually gets all my strike and gunsmith bounties.

Content vaulted, levelling up that keeps on rising and few strikes in the pool with no heroic modifiers either 4 years in... Are you really that surprised why players are rushing through?

1 Reply[quote]why are these overpowered levels playing on strikes?[/quote] Pvp players farming the strike list for weapons that are in the world pool. Destiny 1 players who are used to interacting with the game in that way. D1 didn't have the wide variety of activities that D2 has. So daily play either fell around doing bounties and patrols in the open world.....grinding strikes.....or playing Crucible. So many do it because its a comfortable and familiar routine. The larger question is why to people play a game, and then try to rush through it and play as little of it as possible? Answer? Some people are loot-motivated. They enjoy getting the rewards more than they actually enjoy playing the game itself. Others like me (and it sounds like you) are gameplay-motivated. We enjoy the game itself, and the rewards are just a nice bonus. So loot-motivated players literally don't "get" why we get frustrated when we can't actually shoot the enemies.. To them, the actual game play is something to get out of the way as quickly as possible on their way to the loot drops. While for us, shooting the aliens is the real fun.

3 RepliesNot my problem sorry I’ll continue to rush through strikes as quickly as possible

I agree with op 100% and I’m a D1d1 continuous player. The immersion in the game-world is almost completely gone to be replaced by incessantly boring reward chasing and grinding. The core playlists are all being sacrificed to the ‘endgame’ which is a real shame. Solo strike list would be my preferred option.

17 RepliesIf its a -blam!- strike like corrupted or glassway I can rush through all I want fight me

4 RepliesLevel 150 is their season pass level. Has nothing to do with power.

Edited by Mara Sov’s Step Bro: 11/1/2021 10:11:51 AMSecond of all you have access to one of the best add clearing exotics in the game the moment you start the game. Get it and use it.

First things first loot isn’t split up. It’s 100% personal loot
-
4 RepliesYeah, they should add a strike option for speed-runners. :)

3 RepliesIf this is the profile you play on then it looks like you play on Playstation. While in orbit open your character menu then tab to the right under Settings. Select the Gameplay section. There should be a setting in there for Cross Play on/off, set it to off. Then launch the strike playlist or individual destination strike. The odds are pretty high you will get many strikes solo with cross play off. Alternatively, you can launch the Legend difficulty level of the Nightfall strike. Legend and above do not have matchmaking so you're 100% guaranteed to get a solo instance there.

1 ReplyEdited by Facelauss: 11/1/2021 4:55:57 PMA few things 1. Light level is relative in Destiny 2. Meaning you can never be above the enemies level (they scale up to you), although you can be below an enemies level 2. Want to level up efficiency? Do pinnacles, don’t just stay bounty farming in the strike playlist. Many people in that playlist are there for the pinnacle only. 3. Farming bounties is more efficiently done in: Thrallway (shattered throne), 2nd boss of Last Wish raid (use wish wall to skip to it), hell even loading up normal disgraced from the map (tons* of enemies + can do gunsmith, strike, & cosmodrome bounties at the same time)
-
I agree that it’s really annoying, but you made a few mistakes. Since you’re new, here’s a quick crash course… 1.) People rush through strikes. - The playlist is not efficient to grind in at any level, yet a Pinnacle drop is locked behind 3 runs. - If you’re looking to grind out materials or just learn/enjoy the strike, use the strike nodes on the director to load into a specific strike. Most strikes (outside of Disgraced and Lake of Shadows) don’t have as many speed runners. 2.) Strike loot isn’t split among players. - Its always going to be 2-3 drops, some glimmer, and planetary mats. - Are you thinking of Borderlands? Keep at it. Strikes are fun, but there’s a whole raft of other things to do and chase. I see you’re over 1200, but soon level up will start slowing down. My advice is find someone to do this with on occasion. Makes everything much more fun

1 Reply1. Most people don’t care about their teammates in strikes. Stiles have got to the point where they are easy to do by yourself. 2. Higher level people can be playing strikes for a number of reasons. They could be trying to get their pinnacle, grinding bounties for xp, trying to get their vanguard rank up, etc. 3. People don’t want to do the same strikes they have been doing for 5 years now. They get to a point where they want to get them done as quick as possible. Best piece of advise I can give you is to not worry about your teammates or the objectives. Just kill ads and get your bounties done

Edited by SAXplayer7: 11/2/2021 12:40:10 AMLevels are so diluted by the high number it is meaningless now. But idk if strikes have anything to do with it.

2 RepliesI had a speed runner on lake of shadows strike and he kept dying. Me and my teammate just left him dead and he actually left after he died the third time. Then I laughed
-
Dont use the playlist. Use the strikes on the planets. Use the strikes that work best with your bounties.
-
Go into the nightfall on your own and do your bounties. Very few go into strikes to do bounties and those who are at max level will not even be doing them.
-
Lol no one is overpowered on a strike re levels. Levels basically mean nothing except in select circumstances. Speed running happens more frequently when you are stuck doing the same crap for the 1000th time. Eventually you just try and get it over with as fast as you can.
