So I've spent a decent chunk of time patrolling the Cosmodrome over the past 2 days, and I've come across something unusual. I can't find the blades of Crota. I've got a couple bounties for killing them, and I've made zero progress since Tuesday. I spent a full 30 minutes sitting in the moth yards waiting for them... Nothing.

Has anyone seen the Blades since downloading the update?

Haven't checked yet, but if you want to knock that bounty out quick just load Fist of Crota mission, boost your sparrow through the first fight, kill the guy, go to orbit, repeat.

I saw a bunch of Reddit posts this morning asking the same thing. Sounds like they are indeed MIA.

Just load up the very first Crota mission. The first Knight you kill on the interior (surrounded by the three hive running the ritual) counts as a Blade of Crota. Since it's right at the start of the mission, kill him, then reload.

I thought I saw the text pop up once or twice, but I'm not sure. I definitely haven't seen them or any stray acolytes out and about. I figured it had to do with the XBL issues, but if PS players aren't seeing them either....

- No text -

Since it came up once every 5 minutes wherever you were, I'm guessing they addressed that to show up a lot less often, if at all.

I think I'm seeing fewer material chests as well - at least on Cosmodrome. They're not gone entirely, but my farming rate while waiting for a Walker in the divide was pretty low last night.
