Yeeeeea, no hate but I'ma have to downvote this one. It does stink that theres no way to just go farm it, but I think you're argument fell apart when you mentioned going after it for the Splintered seal. Assuming you've been staying on top of both the toy Penguins and the Augment Triumphs, there's still 5 weeks left before you can get the title. This is Week 4 of Beyond Light, so we aren't even halfway to the earliest possible date for the seal. This means that in order to have the triumph completed to get the seal at the earliest date possible, you need to do a total of 3 Crux Convergence events a week with a fireteam, and only one of those three has to be heroic. Honestly, I don't think the inability to grind something out "right now" warrants a change to the system, because this isn't something that is meant to be easily farmable. Even if you just do pub-events here and there with your team it shouldn't be too hard to finish. I'm at like 38/50 and we've never once gone in and tried to farm them. It would be different if you were actually being locked out of something by RNG -- for example, when Last Wish first launched, you needed the collection badge for the raid in order to get the title, and included in that loot pool was the Sparrow you get with the glittering key, as well as 1KV, which were both rare RNG drops and locked people out of the seal since you can only raid three times a week.

  • You’d have a point, but the issue is that I have no other reason to be roaming around Europa in a fireteam. The week starts and I jump in to get my exo challenge done, find the penguin, and hack the augment cache. That’s it. So at that rate, the only way I (or anyone like myself) can make progress is by specifically hunting these events. I’m fine with it taking a while, I just don’t think it’s a good experience to have no way of making guaranteed progress. I’m asking for my time to be respected, not “gimme gimme, I want my triumph now”. I tried for another hour or so today, and got the same thing. One crux event followed by a dozen other types. You can’t tell me that isn’t a negative experience.

  • It's now 22nd Jan and I'm having the exact same problem that the OP had. I don't want to drag a fireteam up and down Europa searching for an event that never, ever spawns. Or finding an event solo and frantically begging anyone in the surrounding area to let you join them. Almost 4 hours of hopping event to event and I've had ONE Crux. Bungie can increase and decrease rng odds of anything in the game. If Brig Brigade is the only event needed for a triumph - and therefore a title - why not increase the odds? As opposed to the other public events we've been running since vanilla.
