Dawning is obnoxious

Cant we just transmat the cookies wherever they need to go. Its incredibly tedious and annoying hand delivering them everywhere. Makes an already lame event even more boring.

  • Outside of delivering the mandatory ones from the initial quest, I usually go to either Zavala or Banshee and stand there baking their cookies.. The other option is bake cookies for Eva since it requires no traveling what-so-ever as the cookies can be delivered directly from the Directory ~ Eververse tab. IMHO - the only cookie that was a pain in the -blam!- to deliver was the one year when there was one for Riven. Talk about being obnoxious..

    • just skip the event honestly better things to do in other games bungie needs to COMPETE for your time, not treat it like garbage to be expended for their metrics

    • My cat is obnoxious too, occasionally. Well, more than occasionally. Come to think of it, she's a total s...head a lot of the time. But she is so adorable as she knocks my stuff on the floor, and has the sweetest meow, and what are we talking about again? Oh yeah, the Dawning. The lesson is to spend more time playing with your cat, or dog, or hamster. It will be a more rewarding and at least 55.07% less obnoxious way to spend your time.

      • Hand delivery is the "catch". It's a huge time sink. They know this. This event should be FUN. It's a holiday event, the biggest holiday of the year in fact. It should NOT be the grind that it is. After all these years.

      • Just bake all week and deliver at the end when you have a lot of them. They stack. You don’t have to go there for every single bounty before getting another.

      • I used to only make them for Tess, because you used to be able to give them to her by going to the store in the director anywhere you were. Now that only works when you are in the tower physically. Now I only make them for Tess or Eva when I am in the tower ready to focus... It still feels REALLY unrewarding, the drop rate on packages in return is horrible and not worth the time sink... I feel like it used to be 1 of every 2 or 3 cookies had a gift returned, now its 1 in 6 at best.

          This is the first year I’ve actually baked some cookies and it’s going to be my last. I spend more time going from destination to destination delivering them than actually playing the game. No thanks.

              • Clear out 20 spaces in your inventory. Grab the repeatable bounties and bake the 5 treats they ask for. Stack them all week until you run out of resources and when Xur is available turn them into their respective vendor. That way you get the 1 strange coin for each one and can spend them on the weekend. You make one trip to every vendor and by the time you are done you will probably end up with 30-40 gifts in return. LLS give 19-20 Essence of Dawning. The Pale Heart aren't worth doing they suck and take too much time. Other planets are much better.

              • This mechanic replicates the reality of the holiday as you beat the path rarely trodden to interact with the distant acquaintance you probably haven't seen since about 12 months ago. ;) Slots into the Bungie grind strategy seamlessly.

              • I stopped playing Dawning like 4 years ago. No way I would spend my time doing chores like that.
