The most efficient farm in Destiny

So as all of Destiny knows, 1.2.0 came out the other day. I was very excited to see the Queen's emissary return with all new bounties. Just like any other guardian would do, I picked them up and hunted the targets down. What I found out after completing them and the helping my friend out, I can replay them and still get the loot chest. So I farmed that for a short time until my friend suggested that we do the old material farming glitch (you use your sparrow to go to another are and come back, you know the one.). So, what I would do is hit up Venus Patrol, take a left from spawn and head on over to the ember caves. If you stay in the general area for a few minutes, a queen's wrath event will spawn. Just solo it or take some friends and take everything down. As soon as it ends, grab your sparrow and find the chest ASAP. I believe there are 4 chest locations. If the chest is one of the 3 that spawn closest to the platform areas, grab the chest's loot and take the cave you go take for the Archon Priest's Strike. As soon as you see the white words in the bottom left corner, turn back and grab the chest as many times as possible until the Ether Key buff disappears. Now there is one other chest location, Its the path you take to the Citadel, the left side of the large rock you initially see. Grab the chest, hop on your sparrow, quickly go until you see the white words, turn back, grab chest as many times as you can. When your Ether key runs out, just hang out at the place where the last Queen's wrath event spawned. It'll take a few minutes for it to reappear, so just hang out, grab some ammo, fool around, sometimes public events will happen, that'll keep you busy for the few minutes you need to wait. Make sure to stay in the Ember Caves when you're waiting. So if you just keep repeating this process, you will end up with a TON of materials, engrams, glimmer, synthesis, and so on. From only 2 hours worth, I already have 1 treasure key (used for Prison of Elders!), around 250 spirit bloom, 6 legendary engrams, 38 decoherent engrams, and I went from around 7000 glimmer to about 16000. I'm going to continue this method for a while, I believe it to be the most efficient. The earth missions were annoying because the chest locations were too spread out, and the Citadel is hard to navigate for me personally.
