I don't buy it.

by someotherguy, Hertfordshire, England, Thursday, August 06, 2015, 21:27 (3195 days ago) @ Mid7night

I was just on the Moon and realised it's 300 metres from one end of Archer's Line to the other. There's absoluteky no way I've killed anything 5 times that distance away. There's not even a playable space that size.

Edit: How far away are the Atheon portals from the normal play space? Might it be that?

Alternate theory: The queens bounties that aren't Prowling Wolves can be picked up by your Fireteam no matter where they are on the planet. Does that count as a kill? If so I wonder how far The Breach is from Skywatch.

I don't buy it.

The patrol mission markers say how far away they are. I was stood at one end of the map, and the one at the far end said it was 320m away (roughly).

by Beorn @, <End of Failed Timeline>, Thursday, August 06, 2015, 22:06 (3195 days ago) @ Vortech

And there's such a variance in the long-distance kill numbers that the timegate idea holds less water the more I think about it. Same with the Oversoul. If those were the case, we'd have much tighter groupings.

Likely not

by someotherguy, Hertfordshire, England, Thursday, August 06, 2015, 22:09 (3195 days ago) @ Beorn

On the extreme-long-range end there's only variance of 10 metres. Admittedly that's from just two samples, but I can't imagine there's multiple ways to get 1800m.

5 vaults and 2 crotas. Lots of PvP. No prison. So the time gate idea seems possible. Also, how about lamp explosions in the abyss? Probably not far enough. Sniping across the bridge is far, not 1800 though. Hmm...

Cheapley has 3 vaults and 2 crotas. Low totals for both of you, I bet it's somewhere in there. How about oracles calculating strangely? With SGA triggering against them, there's definitely something strange happening.

I've never done Wolf Bounties like that. I've only done them with a Fireteam once, and we just tackled them together.

I've done very few prison runs, though I have done (but not completed) Skolas and I've completed the 32 and 34. I'm just shy of rank 3 with the Queen still so I haven't done very many wolf bounties.

I've killed plenty of oracles in the VOG so I doubt that's it. I don't think I've killed anything as I went through the time gates or got teleported by Aetheon but I can't be sure.

As for Crota, I've killed things by sniping across the bridge encounter and I've also gotten left behind during the abyss while people were killing things far away from me so I doubt that's it.

IDEAS

by Schedonnardus, Texas, Friday, August 07, 2015, 12:29 (3195 days ago) @ Mid7night

I'm guessing any old kill by a teamate won't work, b/c you have to do damage to get the assist.

Couple of Ideas:

Load the HoW Skolas mission. Have one person take the grav lift and go all the way to the end. Another person goes to the Ishtar Cliffs and waits for a pack of wolves.

Load up the Taniks strike, do the same. one person goes into the ship, one stays on moon doing packs of wolves.

Vault of Glass. Do skolas mission. have someone sparrow glitch into the vault, go all the way down to the templar's well, while rest of fire team takes on Skolas (this may not work b/c there isn't a kill bounty associated with it, and you wouldn't be dealing damage to skolas).

VOG. Go to templars well, while others kill packs of wolves in endless steps, ishtar clifs, etc.
