Hey guys, after spending quite a while trying to farm these things i eventually remembered my farming methods from vanilla destiny and started flying in and out of the area after getting a few relic formations near an exit point.
I got 3 crystals in under 10 minutes and thought i should share this with you guys.
EDIT4: Just a reminder for this to work you have to LEAVE the area and come back, no one can stay in the area or the nodes wont reset. Also it works in any area, so if people come you can either wait for them to leave/go to orbit and come back, or move to another area.

Feel free to check out some of my other vids, i play a decent amount of crucible too.
Edit: relic crystals are the mats needed for the dark drinker quest, VOID exotic SWORD.
Edit2: we're trending guys!! Goodjob and thanks to everyone whos watched and liked the vid, hopefully by doing this we can help more players.
Goodluck Guardians!!
EDIT3: apparently you can transfer your 2nd and 3rd sword to your first character and complete it with that character;
[quote]Yea can get only 1 legendary sword per char but you can transfer it to any char and do exotic quest on any char[/quote]
^ Thanks to Roetter420 ^
[quote]Yea you can as long as you don't pick up the 50 major/ 25 crucible kills first you can. Bonus you get to skip those kills as well when you do it. Just the ability kills and material quest[/quote]
^ Thanks to Ihries317 ^

problem is this area is NEVER not full of people, people spawn for patrol every few seconds. there are taken spawning so people stop. there's a public event so people stop, there's champions, and then people spawn some more. i tried this and in about 30 times going to orbit i almost never got a map without people and if i did it soon got people. And often they just stand around and loiter.

Edited by jmccableguy: 10/20/2015 10:03:14 PMIdk if everyone knows this cause I sure didnt. If you aim your gun the ghosts range for finding mats is improved. Using a sniper for big areas like mothyards. Once I found on3 relic I moved to another area. I got my arc mats in 30 min doing this. Just like the video lol

Useless thread. Thread should just be: use a ghost with the resource you need. Done.

Get ghost that tracks what your looking for.. buy the omolon test sniper from the gunsmith. When the ghost is equipped look throu the scope and you can see where all the piles are as they spawn.

Yep, i did the farming from Vanilla too, otherwise it would be a -blam!-ing pain in the ass... picking up 2-3 piles every zone change.
