Call to Arms Salt Mines is the biggest Troll of the event so far
To list it off;
- Constant AoE environmental hazards; Check
- Enemies that constantly apply debuffs or force player movement (Stasis and Strand Dread Psions, respectively); Check
- Enemy spawns that are as slow as molasses, during a timed Ops; Check
- Invulnerable enemies with buggy vulnerability mechanics; Check
- Limited revives that go away after a time because the last 2 points combined are almost impossible to work around; Check, Check, and Check.
Overall, this Call to Arms challenge is not worth the effort so far, because at this point, you know that Bungie is just Trolling us. Why else would they make Dread Salt Mines a definitive part of the event?

3 RepliesMore proof no one at bungie playes their own game or they just hate us and want to make us suffer.

4 RepliesReally? I thought the biggest troll of the event was naming the Title Avant-garde.

I DO NOT do Salt Mines Dread. I don’t care WHAT is up for grabs. THAT is the WORST solo ops to me. Not even remotely fun. The Dread are the crappiest enemy introduced into this game by a WIDE margin. They make ANY activity miserable and an AUTOMATIC SKIP for me. I will NOT do one with them in it. Period.

Youre wasting most of the timer in one area because youre having to kill every damn enemy AND do the objective shooting before you can move on. The dread are by far the worse Especially in the salt mines

2 RepliesThere are no "invulnerable" enemies. Shoot the drones....It takes maybe 11 mins to complete for a number of guaranteed drops.

1 ReplyIt did it on the lowest difficulty possible just to get the intial quest done and have access to the rest. If you really care about score you can always come back to it later.

It’s awful!!!!

salt was bad, had top tier builds in hunter and warlock no dice. when bungie over inflates the difficulty by not thinking it through. you pull out titan sword builds. l did that and finished it. seems bungie needs better planning a lot lately. sword titan is boring but a counter for bad game balance .but geez bungie cant you make it fun without the over top unbalancing. been this way far to long,its time to come home.

Yeah i cant select Pressure Cooker knowing i may wait through 8 more add spawns before the game let's me move on.

2 RepliesEdited by Grim: 11/12/2025 8:59:48 AMWhat I hate most about this event isn't even the salt mines no pun intended. It's that people have already proven it to be nearly impossible to get the helmet. The whole point of sweating my @$$ off was the helmet. But now I found out you have to be in the top 30% for everything and in the top 10% on two of the things to have a high enough score to even get it. That means I have to get in the top 30% of pvp and almost ever match is a sweat fest from h*ll. I give up, i got to 30% on 3 of them but the coil is a joke and I don't think its possible for to score any higher it's just not happening for me. Plus I got to the second (tier I guess) for pvp and it just refuses to count my score anymore, glitchy pos.

1 ReplyThe worst part IMO is that we've already farmed all these weapons and the holofoils for this event are meh. Only positive so far is that I have now actually done the new exotic quest and got the useless axe =D

They could have done a better job at it to get a win when the morale and the player base are so low, yet the event is making me question if they even think about it.
