    Global Events are Not a Waste of Time

    I replayed the Hollywood event even though i already got the trophy and patch. I played it for the cache's. Two exotics, a season cache and named item cache's at completion along with other stuff. It was well worth the grind. I did the entire event on normal world except missions were set to heroic.

    My haul was pretty impressive. God-rolled Dark Winter from named cache, Big Horn and Nemesis from exotic cache's. Lots of crafting materials.

    I was very surprised at getting the DW as I've been farming the DZ for months to find a good one. Now i don't have to go in there for the time being.

    You never know what the RNG will bring you.

    Congrats seems like RNG was pretty good to you. personally i have approx 90 odd weapons in my stash half named and Exotics (most i never use) so don't need any extra's

    Sadly i find the Global's and Manhunts a total waste of time.

    Can't stand any of the modifiers/events for the global's and as for the Manhunts not going to replay missions again just to get a skill item i'll never use (haven't done any of the manhunts bar the very first one and that was enough of the same old trudge.

    I saw the two exotic caches also. I thought it was because I had already done it and got the trophy. If they are all that way. I will be sure to finish any I haven't done so I get two caches the next time.

    I hear ya Jack. I have every exotic in the game and 3 toons just hold 100 stash overflow cause you never know what gear becomes the next meta build.
    Basically the GE and Manhunts keep me engaged in the game. Missions are boring and Cps are just that. Nothing special. At least the modifiers force me to use gear i don't have in my loadouts like the firefly and the sticky bomb. IDK lately i have to find ways to make this game fun enough to keep coming back. New games are coming out next month. Maybe time to make a switch.

    Sounds like an awesome haul! Glad to hear you won't have to farm the DZ for a while!

    No exclusive pinnacle rewards, no point.

    Please understand the perspective of players who virtually have the entire game in their backpacks.

    The DZ WAS the life of the game , the devs nerfed it , i wish it was worth farming again , i liked the drama of the DZ . never knowing if you were going to get jumped on by pvp players , the devs lost all this ...
