i've never seen him in salt mines personally, i've only heard rumors about him like he's fkn slenderman or big foot.

Yea it’s kinda bs that it’s basically required for top 1%. That’s coming from someone with a top 1% score. But at the current rate I won’t have top 1% by the end of the event so I’ve been trying to up my score by a little bit. 2.8 mil is the best I can do without the target. I need over 3 mil to beat my score.

He absolutely should not be spawning in the event version; getting robbed of higher score because RNG didn't favour you isn't 'competition', it's gambling. Or he should be spawning [b]every[/b] run; I'm fine with him f***ing off if you don't burn him down, because you can at least vaguely plan for that (save ammo and Ability energies, change your loadout to a burstier one, etc), all good. But for him to just be RNG as per the other version is absolutely unacceptable, same as the LL score multiplier that Bungie has at least acknowledged is BS and needs to go.

10 runs in a row and NO high value target !!!!

It's frustrating. I got it twice all night, stuck against the wall then teleported. Got it a second time, nova bomb didn't register... And then he teleported. I'm still having to wait for the objectives to clear.... Every block major usually spawns with orbs... This last run before I got frustrated and took a break... I got dogs with orbs. Try to hit that w a bow. Literally every time I get a fast run, I get big whammys. Oh, I got the bug 3 times were the major spawns in the wall. I HAD ALMOST 7 MINUTES at boss 😭, the first 2 adds I killed spawned dogs with orbs. I finished 4:30. Not enough.

Just wait till u get him to spawn and he disappears out of thin air right before you kill him… gotta cook that guy Won’t be able to kill him on hunter with bows. Gotta bonk titan it with worm gods if your using bow modifier.

[quote]I’ve ran this stupid solo mission more times than I care to admit. I’ve scored nearly 3M points and I have seen the high value target literally ONCE!!! I did not clear the mission the one time he showed up. I’m barely holding onto top 1% and I can’t even get this stupid add to spawn. FIX THIS ASAP![/quote] I wanna know how fast are you finishing, I jist finished a run with like 6 mins, had every modifier that was 4 or 5 and am still maxing out at 2.6 mil

Also is it me or is the takens with the shield orbies thingy bugged? Like the orbies don’t spawn in or is completely glitched into a map and since those can’t be completely destroyed makes the takens completely immune/ invincible. Which I think this bug also make it difficult to get higher score for Salt Mine.

Agreed. You need to kill high value target to have “ANY” chance at a top 1-10% score but the spawn values are at best 1/10 to 1/20. Add that to the RNG in which enemies are shielded with drones, if the drones bug out and can’t be shot, plus the RNG in which bonus objective you get (ability kills/precision kills etc) means every run is a f…ing dice role. To make an event where people are supposed to be competing against each other but to add such a crap TON of RNG to every run is a tone-deaf, idiocy move on bungies part. What game developer thought we’ll have a community competitive mode where people compete for scores based on knowing game mechanics, builds, add spawns etc only to add layers and layers of random RNG into the mix is a good idea. I’ve reached rank 11, I ran hyper net and Avalon conquest multiple times. Every fail,I learned add spawns, builds, mechanics etc and the only randomness was the odd bane. But this crap is beyond stupid. Why should I compete against someone who happens to have better RNG than me on a given run, but I understand the activity, mechanics, adds spawns better. In “ANY” competitive game people are given an equal footing. Either make the whole event have identical add spawns, modifiers etc to keep people competing on an equal level of just shelve the whole f…ing event

A streamer said it took 56 tries. Thats a LOW Spawn rate.

I want to remind you that the event will continue for another 11 days 😀

He appears and Bubbles up or ports into an fn wall everytime. Just hoping my score across four events lasts for the helmet because I need to save my strength for renegades.

Will not spawn, or spawns at a low rate? Both can’t be true, so stop contradicting yourself.
