Best Materials Farming Guide

Introduction

This guide allows the players to farm 300+ materials such as Spinmetal, Helium Filaments, Spirit Bloom and Relic Iron per hour. It will use the Spawn-Trap method to farm the materials.

What is Spawn Trap

On your way to farm the material, you might see that the material and chest doesn't disappear right after you gather/open them, they actually disappear after quite a while. This is the backbone of this farming method. We won't allow them to respawn. They will stay in one place so that we don't have to FIND them. Just go to one place, gather, move away and gather again. This is called spawn-trap. This apply to both materials and Chests, but note that chest have much faster respawn time and they don't usually spawn in the convenience places, so trapping a chest is usually harder.

How to Trap Materials and Chests?

Materials and chests don't disappear the moment you gather/open them but they cannot be collected anymore. In order to trap them, you have to be fast enough to get to another area and return to the current area while they are still waiting to despawn. For example, you move from the Rocketyard to the Divide and then return to the RocketYard. After that, your previously harvested materials and chests will become harvestable again. Harvest the chest or materials then repeat the process til you have enough materials.

Finding An Area to Spawn Trap

Players need to find a area to spawn trap materials. Players need to go to Earth for Spinmetal, Moon for Helium Filaments, Venus for Spirit Bloom and Mars for Relic Irons. The location for farming these materials must be a place where you can get in and get out quickly using your Sparrow. For example, the Rocket Yard on Earth is a good place for sparrow running and leaving. Places like the Skywatch (The place contain the old Treasure Cave) is bad because you can only enter/leave the area on foot, thus making your cycle much longer, or even not working at all.

Secondly, you might want to find a place with low traffic, that mean, not much people wandering around, because having other people in the area will make your chest/mats despawn and this method will not works. So, I recommended avoid All the spawn area on patrol (the place in which you are spawned on patrol mode), all the respawn place for Strike (RocketYards, Embercave,Hell mount, and that place on Mars) and that Raid area on Venus, because people will ocassionally spawn there and mess up with your methods.

So, find an area that satisfy all of the above requirements, but don't have to be too strict about it except the Sparrow part, if you don't want people to interupt you but want to farm in the Rocketyard, you can just open your computer, download something that eat almost all of your bandwith, in which, make no one will spawn in your world anymore because your internet connection for Destiny is soo low that the game will not match matching anypeople with you.(this is the most basic method, if you want, can set NAT type, or restrict the maximum speed on your console, all works).

After finding all the neccessary place, your farm route begins. There will be two phase, first is the PREPARATION PHASE, and the second is the TRAPPING PHASE.
