Quick Links
Destiny 2 is filled with activities and challenges for Guardians to complete. While some of these challenges can be enjoyable or easy, others are monotonous and a massive time sink. Bounties suffer from this the worst, tasking players will killing a certain number of enemies or completing a set number of activities.
Strikes are a great way to knock these out quickly, allowing you to complete Gunsmith, Vanguard, and planetary bounties simultaneously. Some strikes also serve as great farming spots for completing Exotic Catalyst objectives or quest steps. Today, we’ll go over the best strikes for farming faction kills, boss eliminations, and other objectives.
Updated August 7th, 2021, by Charles Burgar: Additional strikes have been released since we first published this article, some of which have become top-tier strikes for certain bounty objectives. We’ve changed some of our recommendations to newer strikes that are much better for certain kills farms. Vex and Fallen farms also have alternate strike recommendations since these are typically the hardest kill requirements to fulfill. Use the table of contents above to jump to a specific strike farm you need.
Lake Of Shadows – Best Choice
Lake of Shadows is the defacto strike to farm for many Destiny players, and this is for good reason. This strike has hundreds of Taken, is a linear strike that can be speedrun in under five minutes, and has a weak boss that can easily be killed with a Sword.
If that wasn’t enough, Lake of Shadows also starts players in Trostland, a zone in the EDZ with three unique Lost Sectors. Each player can hop into a specific Lost Sector and farm bounties if they don’t need Taken kills. No strike in Destiny 2 comes close to the efficiency of farming Lake of Shadows.
Broodhold – Best Hive And Boss Farm
Whenever a Vanguard bounty asks for Hive strike kills or completions, complete a few runs of the Broodhold strike on the Tangled Shore. This strike is relatively quick, has over a hundred Hive throughout the mission, and counts as two boss kills when the Brood Queen and her shadow are slain.
Fallen can also be seen at the start of the strike, although there aren’t enough to make this a good Fallen farm. If you need to farm Hive kills or boss kills, Broodhold is your best option.
Proving Grounds – Best Cabal Farm
Season of the Chosen’s Proving Grounds strike is one of the most enemy-rich strikes you’ll find in Destiny 2. Hundreds of Cabal are present, quite a few enemies count as minibosses, and it can be cleared in just a few minutes. Every enemy is a Cabal in this strike, so if you need to rack up a large amount of Cabal kills for a bounty or Exotic Catalyst, look no further.
Warden Of Nothing – Best Vex Farm
While the Vex appear in most strikes on Nessus, they appear in much greater numbers in the Warden of Nothing strike on the Tangled Shore. The first half of this strike is almost exclusively Vex, allowing players to rack up kills for Vex bounties rather quickly.
As for the strike itself, the Warden of Nothing is rather slow. Reaching the boss can take up to ten minutes based on how fast your team is, although the boss is trivially easy. Warden of Nothing makes up for its length by having Vex and Cabal in great numbers, but players who only need Cabal kills are better off farming Proving Grounds or The Arms Dealer.
Alternate Vex Farm: The Inverted Spire
If you get tired of farming the Warden of Nothing, The Inverted Spire strike on Nessus is a solid alternative. Make your way to the second encounter with a large group of Vex. Destroy the Vex, then restart the mission. You can also push to the end of the mission to fight a Vex boss, although the second half of Inverted Spire is rather long due to the defense section.
The Devils’ Lair – Fast Fallen Farm
Destiny veterans can probably play this strike with their eyes closed, but it’s one of the best Fallen farms in the game currently. The Destiny 2 remake of this strike features hundreds of Fallen enemies and a fairly easy boss. Builds that use Warmind Cells or spam Supers can easily rack up a massive body count in this mission. Whenever you need to complete Fallen-related objectives, look no further than The Devils’ Lair.
Alternate Fallen Farm: The Disgraced
A fantastic Fallen farm can be found in the first section of The Disgraced strike in the Cosmodrome. Drive to the opening encounter, then take down the first wave of Fallen that spawn. A second wave will soon rush into the room from the opposite end of the entrance, granting even more Fallen kills. Once they’re dead, restart the strike.
This makes for a quick, painless Fallen kill farm for players that don’t want to farm Lost Sectors while in the Lake of Shadows strike. Unless you’re playing the Nightfall variant, this farm is extremely fast. The strike itself, however, is not. If you need boss kills, you’re better off farming Lake of Shadows or Broodhold.
