What is the best place to grind shotgun kills?
I'm reinstalling solely to get Felwinter's Lie. What are the best places to grind the 1000 kills. I'm think either Shuro Chi or the Castellum.

Edit: I got it done. I grinded it out in the Castellum and got it done in around 40 minutes.

Escalation protocol with tractor cannon and ammo finders.

You can use escalation protocol but you run into issues with other people clearing enemies.

Whisper of the worm thrall room works but you have a time limit and have to go back to keep grinding.

Personally I just didn't stress over it, did it on all 3 characters mostly by using triple shotguns and running the moon lost sector bounties. The weekly that has you clear all 4 lost sectors plus the weekly / daily that has you go to other planet's lost sectors. It wasn't enough to finish it by itself but it was a large chunk of progress and didn't feel as if I were ONLY grinding out the shotgun kills.

If you want to just push the bounty without having to compete for kills, you can just warp to Nessus Artifact Edge and jump off to run the lost sector there. It's fairly densely packed with enemies, all but the boss and nightmares die to a single shotgun hit. Once you finish the lost sector, just travel back to artifact edge and run it again. If you run low on ammo, there is a pub evvent that spawns there as well you might catch the flag for or just travel to tribute hall to fill up and back.

What you can also do is go in the Last Wish raid. Insert the wish to warp to Shuro Chi on the wishwall, and clear out the adds in her room over and over. Added bonus is that you can place a rally banner so you'll never run out of ammo.

I did the Scorn lost sector near Spider's hideout on the Tangled Shore a bunch. Only took me like an hour.

Agree with Escalation, but you have to compete.
I racked up a load just casually jumping around the EDZ. Quite a few rapid respawn areas at each fast travel area.

Tangled Shore, Kings Ship lost sector as soon as you load in, you can go to it and very often hit the public event banner to max your ammo.

There is also a kill patrol which is easy and gives fast reward, random encounters happen all the time which result in a chest as well.

Grab some bounties and go.

And sometimes there is a nightfall to set too if you want to get strike bounties.

Shuro Chi is the fastest by a lot if you have enough raid banners. Its around 80 kills in 2 minutes.

It sounds like you speak from experience.

IMO Nessus lost sector in Artifact Edge is way better than Tangled Shore Kingship Dock.

Faster and easier to get to it from the transmat spot, no mass spawns of charging torch guys that can all slam their torches on you and ruin your day or explode on death if you hit their torch wasting kills. More enemies per clear so fewer restarts. Everything is insanely slow moving so much easier to guarantee shotgun kills -- vex vs. scorn.

The kill partol for the area is even a guarantee instead of a maybe because there are only 3 options for bounties in the area unlike tangled shore. It's even in the direct line from the transmat spot to the lost sector entrance.

The Nessus lost sector is one I do for a lot of random kill / multikill / precision kill bounties and quests. Just because there are so many slow moving vex targets in it and it's so fast to start, run and restart.

Shuro Chi and castellum are probably the 2 fastest ways to clear it out.

@Zoomii: Did you like the shotgun, Felwinter's Lie? I did the grinding on my Titan and found that shotgun to be... "clumsy" and lacking. I don't think I will be repeating the grind on my other chars.

Haven't tried it because I didn't care enough.

Get 3 Shotguns -> Levi -> Castelum -> Wait at the doors they come out in pairs = Profit.

I agree your " clumsy " assessment.
Good weapon, but a little frustrating...the legendary I farmed these kills for it with is much friendlier.
