Ruffians impossible to kill MM by yourself

These spawn timers need to be adjusted(no I shouldn’t have to do the date and time trick, and yes I’m aware how and why they spawn)

    • whenever I find myself playing with Blueberries with the mental capacity of fossilized trilobite, I will throw all of the treasure engrams across the map. The smart ones tend to grasp what I'm trying to do - the morons will actually chase them down.

      • This very small issue can be solved simply by making your very own fireteam! Whether it be an lfg with like-minded individuals, or friends, it will be much easier to complete specific objectives if you don't rely on randoms with a different agenda from yours

      • You have like till December to do the triumph. Sounds like a you problem if you want everything in the first week.

        • Yeah, I'm just going to let this seasonal title go, even if Bungie does "fix" the Ruffian mechanic. I've killed like 4 out of probably 30 runs, and I already don't want to do any more Expeditions. I'll never grind out 50 Ruffians. Can't say I'd ever wear the Scallywag title anyway. Maybe if it had been "Captain" or "Treasure Master" or something else that doesn't also have a specific old political meaning in the US.

        • Here's the most reliable method that I've read about and tested for myself. Ruffians spawn in around the 3 minute mark. Not sure if there's a percentage of treasure that has to be done. I've always done it when at 94%. Just keep killing adds until the Ruffian appears. Once you kill him you may have another spawn within 1 min. If you go more than a few minutes without getting a 2nd, just finish the encounter. I've had 1-3 ruffians spawn at each of the first two encounters.

          • I agree. If they aren't going to change how ruffians spawn, then the triumph needs to be removed from the seal as the bad design makes getting all 50 more RNG than anything else.

          • Finally got the 50, such a really bad game design from Bungie, every game I would ask in chat "ruffians" if they went to 100% then I just left. Worst experience as part of the seasons grind so far out of all the seasons.

            A Ruffian spawns between 50-60% then again between 80-88% per collection phase. You will need to stop throwing treasure orbs into the machine at those percentages. It will take a bit for the Ruffian to spawn. You can get up to 4 ruffians per run this way. It’s a proven method with me and my clan. You just need to get the blueberries in the chat channel to tell them.

            • Someone suggested that when the jammers occur part way through the collection phase that it should also spawn a Ruffian. Would really prefer that as a way to at least guarantee 1-2 of them per run, though I'm also not against simply making their spawn timers significantly faster.

            • Throw the engrams away and buy yourself some time for the ruffians to spawn and I feel your pain. Bad design by bungie.

                Manually set the clock on your console 2 days ahead and EVERY matchmade pve activity will load you in solo. Or you can wait around for weeks until bungie tweaks the ruffian timer.
