Why people are afk farming

It is by far the most efficient strategy to level your character. If the game had a more efficient leveling system built into it's more legitimate systems we would be utilizing that. Many other games have leveling systems that put you close to end game levels at the end of story content. So you don't have to work as hard. This game makes you play hours upon hours, days upon weeks even, to get to end game levels. And it makes you play content we've already been playing up to this point. TLDR: If you Make a better leveling experience, you will get more players who want to engage with it And not *want* to find the exploits.

    • I do it because I'm a dad with kids and doing non repeatable bounties for limited twisted energy is just not fun/rewarded for time as I have had to do it for 3 seasons now. Especially that the bounties hinder the experience of playing and having fun. In addition to the fact that the public event does not reward any and I am so tired of playing all the old content. I really need a some time away from my console so I'll rush any of this abysmal content so I can put my controller down for a while and just feel like there is no pinch to rush and play a game that should just feel good to play.

    • Honestly. Leveling in destiny isn’t fun, which is why people turn to exploits. You could literally play an entire week and not get anything worth your time. Prime engrams really shouldn’t have a cap imo, and the milestones are just boring as -blam!-.

      • maybe it's not the new content being hard but it's just an afk farm where you dont have to do anything for umbral engrams you have 100 days to rank up to 1050-60

        • Im 1035 from playing. I think people are too entitled and want, want want without putting in work. But at the same time, you paid for the game, do as you see fit. More power to ya.

          • AFK Forge farming is not the most efficient way to level. But it [b]is[/b] more efficient if you do not want to do all the same content for the millionth time, or do not want to do end game content to level. For me, well....you can see.

          • I'm not doing either really. I did a strike the other day and was about to grind and shut it down. Leveling doing the same shit we did for years is horrible. It feels like a job foreal. Like bungie should pay me to play this strike for the 500th time. Or this flashpoint for the 7028 time. What happens when content is subpar and even funnier when that subpar content is taken away. You end of leveling by doing things that are 2 years old.

            • I'll afk farm until they fix my controller. Game is unplayable with the remapping fiasco.

            • Its not the best way to get the engrams/level, nightmare hunts are. The reason for forge farming is you don't have to play the game and you can run it while not being able to play. The issue comes with the people not dropping below 750, ruining it for others. They should've seen it coming, the forge has been used like this two times before. [spoiler]If you get matched with people farming above 750, play the forge until they get kicked. Another solution is to remove forges and add the exotics into the engram pool or another source.[/spoiler]

            • I have to agree. I feel bad for anyone who wants to legit run through Forges, but the leveling in this game is so tedious and boring that I can’t blame anyone for AFK farming. I’m not for it but I can’t in good conscience be against it.

            • I have no problem with ppl doing this.... I do it myself. However today i tried to do the forge legit and couldn't get a game because ppl were going in at high light levels and were AFK. if you are going to do it at least get your gear down below 750. There is a bond etc in the armour collections that is only level 21. That alone gets your LL way down.

            • Maybe if raids and dungeons and trials and nightfalls gave more xp for completing them, we wouldn't AFK farm Bungie.

                In case anyone's curious, they have doubled and tripled down on the absurd power-grind each season. You can check the max. power-level on gear that's been released over the past year, and you can see that it's a 200 (or 250) increase with Beyond Light, and then 50 every season. So yeah, just in case you were wondering, they have already decided they WILL force you to grind 50 levels above the soft cap every 3 months. And then the pinnacle grind on top of that if you wanna engage with certain engame content. It's -blam!-ing absurd. Once I realized that, I realized that it was in fact the 2nd or even 3rd final straw for me. Removing content from the game in massive chunks, retiring all my gear AND constant needless grind 4x a year? No thanks, I'm done. I was already starting to get burnt out, but this is just absurd.
