I dont know who was or is responsible for the bounty mission balancing, but let me compare the Thorn one and Invective one...
[b]Complete the summoning pits - Thorn (well ok one that is easy!)
5 strikes without a single death - Invective[/b] (easy in the summoning pits) PS: I did it even in the Strike lvl 24 playlist easily...
[b]500 void point kills - Thorn[/b] (if you dont have the luck of having the VoG rifle then good luck and have fun collecting it with only a Fusion rifle while ppl shoot u in the face with a shotgun or Suros Regime.)
[b]25 kills/assist to death difference - Invective[/b] (Did this in 1 and 1/3 matches... I shit you not... And Iam nothing special in the Crucible)
[b]Obtain an Infusion of Light from The Speaker [/b]- Thorn
[b]Complete a weekly challenge mission to obtain A Clot of Darkness[/b] - Invective (meh on lvl 22...)
[b]Need to kill Xyor in a special lvl 26 strike in the Summoning Pits - Thorn[/b] (and oh -blam!-ing hell I can tell you that I cried a little doing it... Got once disconect in the Phogoth room and once I died by the exploding scrub which spawned behind me. You have to fight like 4-5 waves of shielded wizards, knights and as a bonus you have to avoid a lvl 26 Phogoth laser beam. SUCH FUN, MUCH WOW! After like 20 killed wizards and knights... I again shit you not! The shitface finally spawned and it took me another 10 minutes to lure that bitch in the starting corridor that was constantly blocked by spawning knights all over the place and a shitorb that spawns there. If I didnt had the Ice Breaker then I would fcking cut my veins and went to start a discussion with my fiancé on her period that she cant cook to punish myself and most probably would die aswell.)
[b]Buy 50 special ammo packs for 12 000 glimmer[/b] - Invective (HOLY SHIT SO HARDCORE!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Shotgun with void damage You chose a terrible way to fight xyur :/ glad you got it but you made it way hard on yourself
-
What? :D Never said that I was killing him with a shotgun and even if I tried I wouldnt live longer then 2 seconds :D. Shotty was used for the pvp part...
-
Rocks in the back left. So much easier
-
Tried up to the moment one Wizard spawned up the ledge and nuked me to death. I found the usual corridor way safer and without any risk sliding down the rocks. After Xyor spawned he at some point went to the Shrieker corridor and I -blam!- him with gunslinger.
-
Never needed xur. I just completed this bounty a couple days ago for thorn, that statement isn't accurate.
-
My bad it was for the Juju I was doing that literally at the same time.
-
The place to do anything in phogoths room is, out the spawn door, turn left, find pile of giant rocks all the way at bottom left of map , pew pew , win/profit.

Edited by loonigus: 10/8/2014 1:27:27 PMDid, but once I slided down to death and more then once a Wizard got stuck and kept spawning of next ship impossible. Unless you mean a spot Iam not aware of.

I just hang out in that general area but I stay on the ground under the ledge. Gives me room to move around when I get attacked. Just got to watch that spawn cave right there.
