[*]It would be neat if something like Mythic Public Events existed, where 6+ Guardians are required for the takedown/completion of a Raid-difficulty task. Maybe something for Clans to tackle...

Sounds great.

I hear talk of "heroic" public events, and I even completed one somehow, but I still don't really know how they differ from "normal" events.

So each normal Public Event has a "secret" task to complete which extends it into a Heroic Public event. For the Fallen Glimmer drill, there's a piece of equipment you have to destroy. When the glimmer drill starts, look around for a "collector", for lack of a better term. It will take damage. Destroy this collector at each of the locations the Drill spawns at BEFORE the crew is killed. You'll end up with an additional task of protecting a big ol' pile of glimmer from the Fallen before it's transmatted out.

On Titan, there's the Fallen Walker Public Event. For that you have to stun the walker, and his neck will open up like usual. But he will drop three of those power cores. Load those into the machines projecting fields around the Scorch Cannons, until you've unlocked both caches. Then a second Walker will drop. Kill both, and win.

There's also a Taken public event in the EDZ where you have to step into these blight bubbles and then back out, and pour DPS on the main objective (a larger blight mass), and that triggers it, I believe.

And there's a Hive Public Event...on Titan, I think? I'm fuzzy on that one. I think there are two spell circles on the floor you and other Guardians have to stand in as you kill Hive, and then a big Hive baddie is spawned. I'm sure there are more but I can't recall having run into them. Point is, there's an additional step you have to complete, and then it will announce your Public Event is now Heroic.
