The reason they’re skipping champions is the armor challenge for nightfalls. They got adept version of the nightfall weapon. They don’t care about platinum because they don’t need to. They want to get those runs done as fast as possible to complete the “get the silver leaves from nightfalls,” challenge, which is actually hard to successfully do with non upgraded armor in a gm nightfall. This is just one example of how adding incentive to something in game may not necessarily have the “intended,” results.

It's definitely not just a "I need to grind silver leaves" thing. Before I joined my clan I ran a lot of lower level stuff solo. Players running that stuff NEVER stop to kill champs. Half of them never even equip the proper mods. They either A. Just try to burn champs down WITHOUT the mods, or B. decide they don't need the Plat run, and bypass them. Either way, most of the time I was left to either kill the champs myself, on my own, or back out to find a new fireteam, that wasn't handicapped.

This. And afk is becoming a problem.

Its always been a problem. Once in awhile there are AFK farms that the community likes to take advantage of. Like when the forges were still around. It was awful, then. Couldn't find a match without somebody sitting AFK, for a week or 2.

The forge was allowed because if you lowered your light you weren't matched with players.

I farmed silver leaves with full solstice armor in GM corrupted. It wasn't bad lol

You know you can just swap your armour out at the end of the strike and it still counts, right?

Run a dungeon for the Solstice armour upgrade. That's how I did mine.

Unfortunately… People in destiny ALWAYS take the quickest and easiest way to get ANYTHING done. Hero nightfalls are easy and don’t require you to make a fireteam. That’s why people pick them over dungeons It truly does suck, but again… This is what’ll happen when you incentives doing ANYTHING like this. People will be deciding to ruin others experience for their own benefit. I personally don’t do this, for good reason. But everyone else basically says: “Screw you. I don’t care about you needs. I’ll do what I want. Here’s the middle finger. Deal with it.”

Yup, I agree. That's why I do "most" things in this game solo, if I'm capable. If I'm not, I have a clan that I can usually rely on to help out, eventually lol.

But on a rather strange side note I’d like to add. I somehow got the challenge done in grandmaster nightfalls without wearing a single piece of event armor on my titan. I don’t know how that happened.

[quote]But on a rather strange side note I’d like to add. I somehow got the challenge done in grandmaster nightfalls without wearing a single piece of event armor on my titan. I don’t know how that happened.[/quote] Because you don't need to wear the armour. The armour is only required of you need silver leaves or silver ash. Most of the challenges don't require you wear the armour at all. Yes most of challenges say earn leaves by completing strikes, crucible, public events, patrols etc but you the challenge only requires you complete the activity. You don't actually have to earn leaves from them.

Nah the challenge is to complete a GM wearing full levelled up candescent armour. It's bugged and gives it you without the armour
