It's getting to be a common thing now during the Lvl 24 Strikes that I see these kids race as fast as they can through the Strike usually hopping on their speeder bypassing the first several mobs of lower level enemies which is fine but then they continue on and bypass as many of the Lvl 24 enemies as they can just to get to the final boss quicker.
Why? The boss gives you nothing and your chances of getting anything worthwhile from the end game roll are poor odds for the amount of time it takes to complete each Strike. Your best shot of getting a Legendary Engram drop or at least multiple blue Engrams to give you a chance at Legendary gear and to rank up the Cryptarch is to kill every Lvl 24 enemy up to the boss because that is where all of my Legendary Engrams have come from and I get at least half of my blue Engrams from Mob drops to go along with what I get in the end game roll.
The Lvl 24 Tiger Strikes since the last patch appear to have a higher drop rate than the normal game modes at least in the areas you're facing Lvl 24 enemies, and so bypassing them to finish the Strike faster is just decreasing your chance of getting multiple drops. There's little other reason to be grinding Lvl 24 Strikes in that manner because you can earn Vanguard rep faster farming Patrols, Vanguard Marks faster farming Public Events, and if you need a bunch of Strikes for a Bounty run the Lvl 8 Devil's Lair on Earth and get them done quick.
So don't be that guy that runs way out ahead of everyone else. Don't waste you and your teammates chances for more Legendary/Exotic drops. It doesn't take but an extra 5 minutes or so to clear out all the Lvl 24 enemies your bypassing between you and the Boss when you do it as a group.

I race through them because I want to get max vanguard points as fast as possible so I can buy legendary stuff just to break down into ascendant material. I've gotten two exotic drops from cryptarch that were for a different class (I ended up creating a warlock just for the chest pc) and the exotic auto I use I bought from Xur. Two of my armor pcs were from the queen's bounty. The only good drops I've gotten were from VOG. Because of the VOG once per week raid limit I have friends actually level another character of the same class just to take advantage. I myself do not feel like spending 30 hrs just to level from 28 to 30. I've gotten a couple purple engrams since the patch that turned out to be strange coins. My point is even if you are lucky enough to get legendary stuff you still have to grind for the ascendent material. This is a grind game, which makes no sense because there is no monthly fee.
