[quote]The quest for the skimmer is absolutely f’ed. -> Earning 1,200 points on banking medals requires hours of time sink, especially when each medal doesn’t contribute a whole lot to the total score. I’m not sure how long it would actually take to complete this one if you played every single day with optimal medal gainage and treated this game as if it were your job, but from my experience as a more casual player, I played about 3-4 hours on Tuesday and am still under 100 points. The grind on this is [u]excessive[/u]. -> Top 10% of all scores is straight impossible on certain classes with certain guns and at certain times of the day. You basically have to focus on getting as many medals as possible (Don’t even get me started on the Ability Acceleration. It’s absolutely broken with Well and Warlocks. Nice job, Bungo). Plus, if you wait too long or can’t get on at daily reset, it’s straight up impossible for regular, casual players to get scores in the top 10% because the score pool is inflated so much. -> The focus packages is basically the only other viable option if you don’t get top 10%, but if you just pledge on the class that’s going to win, even if that’s not your main class, doesn’t that just defeat the purpose of a class-based Guardian games? And of course, the [u]ONLY[/u] other Skimmer available is in a $25 bundle with multiple other items that you will never use ever… you can’t even buy it with real-world money on its own… because of course not. Whoever was the ‘genius’ who came up with this questline should be taken out back and given the Old Yeller treatment. Good Lord… they make an actual fun thing in the game that they give to “everybody,” but will take away after 3 weeks if you don’t treat the game like your job or spend $25 on it.[/quote] Hmmm, dont think so., me and a buddy 2 manned the NF on Tuesday and got 233k achieving the top 10% - exotic skinner unlocked. We emote champions before finishers, which granted 9,250 points each.

  • since then that 233k has increased because of a lot of people passing that number up I believe it is around 290k right now

  • Yeah, that’s if you get lucky. I played yesterday at night for a bit when I had some free time… because I actually have a life and can’t play at reset… to see if I could get it. [u]Soloed[/u] the NF with about 250k, got top 30%. I even emoted before killing champs. It’s dumb.

Emote killing champs and majors gives a total score of about 300k. Chain kills to get other medals can add an extra 100 - 150 k to the score. It's got nothing to do with luck. Just simply using the modifiers to your advantage. The guardian games buffs are the same for all classes so not sure why you think warlocks have it better.

  • I played on Tuesday and yesterday when it was Disgraced. Warlocks do have an easier time with the ability acceleration because Well. It makes them unkillable, gives them the Let there Be Light medal every time guaranteed, and gives a damage boost. Closest anything has to that is Titans with bubble, but you can’t shoot out of a bubble like with a well.

Disgraced was today and reset is in a few hours that will have a new strike. Ability acceleration is the same for all classes. The bonus for warlocks is in a well they can chain weapon kills while they also count as super kills. Survivability shouldn t be an issue because the nightfalls are considerably easier than regular hero nightfalls.
