I like to pop 3OC's doing the strikes I think it's a decent cooldown and a loop on it's own. No lead time. Farming is for hard core grinders that have to be at max light after 2 days of release. Slow the hell down already cause once your at max light well you've by-passed all the content to get you there, therefore the game itself and on-top of that you will leave all your friends behind in the game until they catch-up. This is like the guy who has to race off the line to beat you to the next red light only to look over and see you there beside him again.

I'd rather get to max asap, and then have infusable 400 gear dropping. Plus it makes you tankier and able to do a little more damage.

I used to do this and it worked great for me, since roi dropped for some reason my drop rate is almost non-existent in strikes. So I tried this method and it works as advertised. I ran a total of 9 loops including the setup run over three characters, and 9 exotic engrams have dropped for me. That took just under 2 hrs total. No way I'm getting that from strikes. At least for me, this is the way to go.
