Even with maps I keep coming up short on finding the damn chests.

47 blue engrams, 2 purple (helmet and special weapon) and just got my first key.

Got my Titan to level 29 and went into Crota normal. Not one single armor dropped the entire time. Talk about bad luck.

I didn't even die.

3 keys. Started today just farming (mainly Venus. Best bet.) Ton of blue, 3 legendary engrams. I highly recommend this. It's kind of fun just to wreck these events and get the rewards.

I'd agree that Venus is the best.

That was my experience the one time I ran Vault of Glass. Minus the 'didn't die' part. I had some trouble with the platforming. Otherwise, not a single piece of loot.

Which is normal for me. That's why I don't go out of my way to raid...

Is there any reason to save your blue engrams?

I need to get on a 3 man team to get to these chests. I just don't have much luck finding them. Even with the maps I seem to always go the wrong direction first and by the time I find it it is too late.

I'm saving them so I can get a cryptarch rank boost next week and hopefully a purple or two out of packages.

Just follow whoever else is there. People are usually pretty good about pointing or shooting into the air. Or look for people racing out of the zone on their sparrows - head toward wherever they came from, the chest'll be there.

thats what I do but people aren't very good about pointing them out. They find them and leave. going to do a team tonight so we can talk to each other about where they are.

I am impossibly bad at funding chests.

Well if you can handle a little fun natured ribbing I can help!

Each location of the event has 4 spawn spots for the chest. Just look them up and stick to that area and you'll be fine. I use Venus 99% of the time

I'll be on in a few if anyone wants to do them hit me up
