It was efficient: tons of blues, a fair number of purples (Destiny)

in those days strikes did not drop amazing loot. I don't know what the game drops these days but I loot cave farmed then played strikes. I wasn't getting better drops in the strikes.

Strikes were my favourite part of the game and I played them into the ground. Nevertheless it was definitely worth my time to start my day at the Tower to pick up bounties then go to the cave with mates to:

• get loot
  
• pick up free heavy ammo
  
• do warsat public events
  
• kill lots of high level enemies when they moved against each other
  
• do patrol missions
  
• achieve bounties
  
• pick up some spin-metal
  
• plan the rest of the day
  
• move on to story missions and strikes

I also saw notifications for grimmoire cards unlocking for classes that I didn't have. Did the game put me into a fireteam because a group of us were killing enemies together?

My cryptarch rating was through the roof from the amount of gear I was decrypting. And he gave prezzies on each level achieved.

As soon as the cave was patched I had to move over to farming the divide. I picked up more spin metal but it took longer to get the other stuff I needed from patrolling. The downgrade was immediately noticeable.

How much loot cave farming did you do?
