Likelihood of completing blue armour quests before Monday...ZERO
Why are some of the blue armour challenges on the Hunter so OTT?
20 challenges, 100 arc supers, 100 void grenades and 100 solar melees are ridiculous to say the least.
I do not have the time to spend hours a day doing this, it took me long enough to get the green ones done but they were easy in comparison.
If I can't get it done in time am I going to be severely under levelled come the forsaken Dlc or does it really not matter that much other then for the sake of collecting things?
Ive done all the other requirements on it but those last 4 seem impossible in the time frame. its already nearly 10.30PM and I have to work all day tomorrow so its not looking good.
Not had the time to attempt the solstice challenges till this week had I known they'd be this much of a faff I probably wouldn't have bothered.
Thanks Bungie for setting such a hard series of tasks. whinge whinge moan moan.

2 RepliesSolar Melees: Ophidia Spathe, Way of the Sharpshooter. Also, a solar sword with no ammo will count as melee kills, so make sure your just using the hilt. Void Grenades: Vortex grenades with Way of the Trapper and Orpheus Rig. Throw grenade, tether, immediately get grenade back, repeat. Hephaestus or Core Terminus is good for this. Arc Super: Use masterwork weapons for orbs. Use super at boss room in Core Terminus. EZ-PZ.

Come on man I had purple on my titan in 3 days, no joke 3 days. EP farming is the place to get the kills.

20 challenges is a ballache. Void nades, start up EP, round up that first wave of thrall and throw a vortex grenade at your feet. Wash rinse repeat. Solar melee kills, put on a solar sword, spunk the ammo away and kill stuff with the hilt. Honestly, the 20 challenges and 10 adventures is the longest part. The rest can be done really quickly.

1 Reply100 solar melees is easy on the hunter. You literally have two abilities that instantly charge your melee again, plus an exotic to have 2 throwing knives.
-
If you're only completing now there's pretty much zero point anyway, youre going to drop it in a week anyway.

Edited by HxH UNKNWN: 8/28/2018 11:48:16 AMHunter was probably the easiest Use a masterwork gun to generate orbs or rally the flag to get your super and go find a group of enemies kill them, fast travel back to the location rally the flag again and rinse and repeat Solar melee - use ophida spathe (2 knife throws) and use the bottom solar tree where precision knife kills give you an instant melee charge, also use the dodge where you dodge near enemies and get an immediate knife charge. Void nade kills - mars lost sector by ana, go until you reach the boss room , the room right before that spawns weak thrall and if you shoot or get the attention of the thrall in the boss room they’ll come too. Get surrounded by them all and drop your vortex nade. 8-10 kills at a time or however many thrall are there. Rinse and repeat you’re done, sure it’s grindy like every other class but it’s beyond doable and pretty fast if you synergize your exotics properly: Use frostees if you have them to regen nade energy faster.

Hunter is not so bad. I thought warlock was worse.

It really shouldn't take any more than a few hours to finish the blue gear. the only thing that should take long especially with the hunter is the crucible wins but everything else you can finish in a couple hours. i mean i finished all 3 characters in 2 weeks masterworked and i have a full time job lol
-
If your not going to have 4-6 hours to dedicate this afternoon, as well as two+ clan members to help. I wouldn’t bother honestly.
-
Go to each planet/moon and do the 3 daily challenges. That will be 18 and then do one Vanguard strike for the other 2. Then load up the nightfall. In the first big room you can knock out the rest. So many thrall running at you in a straight line you can throw knives for days. Just make sure to kill yourself and before you get to the Ogre and 2 knights.

I started the green last week and got super bored. Not even going to try to finish greens. Ive got both destiny t-shirts... Despite its issues at least it was fun to play.

6 RepliesEdited by Cerberus64: 8/27/2018 9:54:38 AM100 Solar Melees - use the solar class and equip Ophidia Spathe chest piece for 2 knives per charge. Best place is in the Castellum for infinite enemies - just get a crit shot with the knife and it gives it back to you - should have it done in about 10 minutes. 20 Challenges - there are 3 challenges on each planet - all very easy - collect planetary materials, get kills, run a Lost Sector... plus there are daily Vanguard and Crucible challenges to make up the 20. 100 Arc Supers/100 Void Grenades - easiest way is to do the console time change trick and run Escalation Protocol 1st wave over and over. Go to orbit and on the PS4 go to your settings and manually turn the time back 3 to 6 hours - then when you fly into Mars it will be uninhabited and no one will try and steal your EP kills. (if you are on XBox I don't think you can change the console's time so you will just have to try and pop the EP and hope no one interferes).

Wow i know right, if only they gave us like 3 weeks to complete it, that would be so much better imo.

2 RepliesEdited by GifuBound: 8/26/2018 9:30:55 PMFirst of all this armor was not meant to be attained by all players. Only those who truly have the time and effort into completing tasks from all aspects of the game. And don’t worry you will by no means be under leveled when forsaken comes out. I have the full armor set and i bet you on th first day when forsaken drops i’ll be rock’n all blues because they’ll have perks and will be much higher light. So don’t sweat it man, your good.

1 ReplyDoing all 3 challenges on all 6 planets will give you 18 challenges and then just do another 2 from strikes or crucible which is fairly easy. Use a solar sword with 0 ammo and kill 100 enemies with it, if you do it on earth its fairly easy. For the supers do the Adventure Post Modern Prometheus on IO. Void Grenades do the lost sector in mars (the hive one) you get around 10 every grenade if you attract enough thralls or just do the EP level 1. With the new softcap, its gonna be fairly easy to level up past 400 when forsaken drops so dont stress yourself too much. No one gonna use y1 armor in y2 cos of perks, you only need it if you are going for the collection.

1 ReplyJust something for the collectors and grinders. I did the first mission to get the greens, read the requirements and said "-blam!- that." :P Our Guardians don't [i]need[/i] it.
-
1 ReplyApart from the challenges, its not as bad as you think. Void nades, void nades work with tether, so tether a group and nade them, bring orpheus rigs to get your super and grenades back. Lost sector by braytech was best i found. Solar melees, ophidian spate(2 knives) and the hunter tree that gives you another knive after a crit knife kill. Also there's a cheese, a solar sword with 0 ammo, a kill with this counts towards a solar melee. Arc super, just equip raiden flux, find a well populated lost sector and go nuts. Braytech one i find is best again.
-
1 ReplyOh I get it......you want to be given the armor without actually completing the objectives. Find a new game princess.
-
Void nade and solar melee - go into the whisper mission and go into the green room as a nightstalker with the rigs on, drop down to the shadow thrall, have a legendary sword with no ammo and a solar burn, super the thrall, hilt smash, rinse and repeat till solar is done, spam nades to victory. Ez pz.

5 RepliesYou have had 4 weeks to do it, plus it's not exactly difficult if you play smart.
-
It's 60 solar melee kills btw.
-
2 RepliesIt's not really that bad.. takes like maybe an hour or 2? Got it all done on all 3 characters in 2 days. Just grind. Also I doubt it will matter that much once forsaken is out. It's a 15 light level difference and the soft cap will probably be around 550. You'll pass 400 in the first 5 mins of forsaken.

took me 4 days for mine.
