This still leads back to the balance between guaranteed rewards and luck-based rewards. If the guaranteed reward outweighs the (low) potential for a random reward, people will not spend twice as long grinding through trash-mobs "just in case". Right now, I need to complete 25 Strikes. I'm frankly not worried about what "might" drop, because I still have to kill a fair number of trash-mobs to finish anyway, and I'm much more concerned with receiving my exotic at the end. If you wanna kill trash, find players who want to do the same. I don't, and my motives for it aren't less efficient because of it, just different than yours.

There is no balance of guaranteed rewards and luck based rewards. You get your 100 marks, you do your rep and you get your guaranteed reward. Beyond that (which is where I am at the moment) the marks and rep are useless and the random engrams become more important than the marks and rep. The marks and rep can be farmed efficiently so long as people do the strike the way it was meant to be done. I'm not worried about that. What I am worried about are these get rich quick mofos wanting to see the reward screen faster. I don't agree with that at all. It's not a matter of opinion, it's objective fact that they're getting less loot and they're trying to punish me for it. I'm not gonna play that way, sorry. You better hope you find someone that joins during the boss cause I'd quit that run before you catch me skipping stuff. What I'm saying is that as long as you're doing everything efficiently, it doesn't matter if you skip mobs or not. It's going to be fast and you get MORE stuff for doing it that way. We all have our different motives for doing the strikes. Mine is to farm fusion rifles for the bounty. I need a lot of engrams for that purpose. Killing stuff fast and clearing stuff fast is what I can help others do, but you can't ask me to skip level appropriate mobs.

Ahh.. So what this comes down to is that people arent playing the way you want to, and that makes them wrong. Everyone is being painted with the same brush, presumed to have the same motives for joining a strike, but if they're not there for the same reason you are, they aren't doing it right. You not receiving enough engrams for your bounty is really not any other player's problem. If you need to farm them so badly, either invite your matchmade group to a party and ask them to kill everything, or find a place to farm that doesnt require you complaining about the way other players play an open-ended game. As it stands, there will be no success for this thread in changing anyone's mind. Unless you talk to people in-game, you can't know their motives and they can't know yours. There is no wrong way to complete a strike, because the mission outline only says, "go kill this guy." Not, "kill everything between you and the guy cause it might help."

It's not a matter of me playing the way I want to, it's a matter of playing it the way it was designed. With that said, I might as well not respond to you anymore.
