Just got my second elder cipher :heh:

These shyts drop like candy. Don't see how I'm supposed to keep playing this game until whenever the big expansion drops

My and my crew did. :yeshrug:

Not that hard once you understand the mechanics. It isn't endless adds spawning either. You can clear them out to a manageable level and DPS the boss. The key is running all the way right out of airlock, using the big rocks on the end platform as shields from damage, manage the adds first. When he is searching for guardians, all group up together (like literally on top of each other....no homo) and use shotty's, I recommend Invective for ammo regen, or Ice Breakers to get out the bubble. The Eye guy will always come right if you are all down there too, so you should always have Jailbreaker. After breaking out, DPS the boss. Rinse, repeat. Took like 40 mins.
I had a weak link in my Fireteam... actually my bro fell asleep when we got to the last part. Had to invite someone off my FL to help us complete the rest. I know it's doable, but I can see how that shyt could take somebody forever to beat if they didn't look up how it works. And that detainment shyt was OC, and I'm guessing that's why Bungie came out and nerfed it quite a bit.

this is good :dwillhuh:

you actually like that zippin back and forth shyt? the drop rate was increased for Treasure chests, Prison of Elders small chests, and you get one from Petra for doing a bounty once a week. this is good news breh :dwillhuh:

I just got one from turning in a bounty, then a package she gave me had another key in it. thats more in one day than all of last week doing all that goofy farming shyt.

For low level dudes like myself farming for blue/purp engrams, keys, tokens and ammo is the way to go. In one week I have 3 treasure keys, and about 5 tokens for ships, shaders, etc.

I can't do shyt on HoW at all at level 20 something. I only have one character that is level 30.

Y'all acting like keys are actually worth anything too. There are easier chances at exotics in this game then farming keys. Only reason I'll farm keys now is for the Elder Cipher bounty part that requires you to open the chest.

For who and where? I've been playing for a minute and don't have exotic anything.

You get 2 chances at an exotic from both raids. (Gorgon Chest, Aetheon, Deathsingers, Crota) Nightfalls have a fairly high drop rate of exotics too. If you have 3 characters that's 15 chances at something exotic which are all a lot more fun than farming for keys.

But since they increased the key drop rate and give you an increased chance of keys at the end of the PoE, they've pretty much taken the need for key farming out the game.
