So I was running through some heroic strikes today. I was running past all the useless enemies so that we could speed through it. I got to the boss and wiped to bring the other two forward. They proceeded to send me hate mail calling me a coward and unskilled for running past useless enemies.
Since when has speed running become unskilled
Edit:
For the people saying I think my way is the only way to run strikes, you're wrong. I don't believe that. I understand people run it different ways. I'm simply stating that it's sad that people think speed running makes you unskilled at this game and send hate mail over it
Edit 2:
I admit, it was kind of inconsiderate of me to pull them forward, but at the time I had soloed half the strike and just wanted to finish it finally. When I go into match making, I don't expect people to do things exactly my way. It's every man for himself. If someone kept killing ads at boss or kept dying at boss, I wouldn't send hate mail over it. It's my risk for using match making. My point is stop expecting thing to go your way of you use match making, and don't send hate mail for it, because you chose to use match making
Edit 3:
Wow so much salt for speed running. I bet half of you are taken tots. Would have liked to see you try grinding strikes in HoW. You would have been screwed. Everyone was speed running trying to get a dry rot or a hopscotch pilgrim

1 RispondiI sent two guys a message today for not speed running. Come on people. Some of us use rep booster and need speed runs for maximum rep
-
Unless the people are completely new and have never done it before, then I'm running past the useless ones. If they don't follow, then I'll clear out the other ads along the way for them, I never pull them to me unless I know they are trying to keep up but can't.

2 RisposteKilling anything but the boss is pointless....

Modificato da Stupid Shinji: 5/27/2016 7:39:34 PMHell if I'm using a booster you best believe I'm gonna be speeding through, why waste my time on adds that do nothing to affect my vanguard rep gains.
-
Modificato da Swarlly: 5/27/2016 7:55:28 PMYeah they suck. When I was new and all sudden the best guy pulled us to the boss I thought it was rad, less work and now its like yeah less grind.
-
Lol if they wanna kill those enemies they can strike with a team or go patrol somewhere.

I wait to see what the other guys are wanting to do before I rush off. I prefer to speed through it. But if the other 2 are killing adds I just assume they have some bounty and play along at their speed. I usually only get marks at the end anyway and maybe a legendary engram
-
Speed runs forever!
-
Lmao why so much hate? you won't get anything useful from killing the adds.
-
1 RispondiProbably because People like me who try to get bounties done while doing strikes. On the rare occasion we need a random it is quite annoying when someone is rushing through. Lol if they rush through the strike and keep dying we do nothing to help.
-
Killing all the ads? Ain't nobody got time for that. Why make a strike last longer then absolutely necessary.
-
When in Rome, do as the Romans.

7 RisposteI never speed run. If I see people doing that in Heroic Strikes, I shoot the boss a couple times and hide, wait till you die, and tbag your ghost till im killed. I'll cause us to wipe so many times, you'll end up leaving. Play the whole strike or don't play at all.
-
Good for you. I wish my randoms were like you. It's a race to loot. I'm not playing the strike for the 1,000th time for practice. Whoever gets to the end first and has the least kills, wins.
-
So your selfish.
-
I speed run all strikes. I wish I had a blueberry like you...
-
My thoughts exactly. There is no point in killing the enemies beforehand if you can run past them
-
2 RisposteMan that sucks. I mean. As long as you don't die and force the team up, who cares? Sucks you got some bad messages.
-
Honestly i do hate it when people do that. I understand why and all but I never message them for any reason. Mainly when i run strikes i watch the other two and try to keep pace. I do sometimes for easy kills if I'm needing ammo but that's it. Sorry you got the hate message.
