So last night I took my very good PSN friend on the loop/route for material farming
We started @11PM and finished @3AM, so 4 hours, 1 hour per planet
He had roughly 150+ of each material, got like 12+ Ass Shards (Public Time Events were just giving it to him), 30+ Vanguard Marks, filled at least quarter circle by doing patrols for reputation, enough green items to dismantle for parts,blue/legendary engrams
The best part is talking with someone else and farming, the hours flew by, within a few loops it became second nature to him, we just chatted and kept doing, not even realizing we were farming
He even went, we are farming, but doesn't feel like it
My stockpile got a huge surge for all 4 materials, hitting really close to having 800 of each material by end of the week
