fastest way to farm pattern extraction?

[Vyrex]

whats the fastest way?

[Nakos]

There isn't a fast way. It's just RNG.

You just gotta keep running the content where the weapons you want Deepsite Resonance for can drop.

Haunted and Opulent you can get one specific one per week (if you have the correct Crown of Sorrow upgrade) but the others? It's just RNG.

my bad i should elaborate taht i meant when you do get a patterned weapon to get kills for it, Is there any mission or anything taht can make me kill alot and fast enough to finish so it adds into the pattenr progress?

[Nakos]

Ahh, gotcha.

Well, I usually go to Terminus East in the EDZ. Go down into Terminus East, wait for a minute or two for the MOBs to spawn in. If you give them a moment they all jump up on the big barrier in the middle and you can kill a whole bunch at once. And it's pretty easy to reset the instance quickly.

That's usually also where I do Grenade kill bounties and Super Multi-kill bounties.

Their is always the Shuro Chi checkpoint inside Last Wish it spawns massive waves of mobs perfect for leveling weapons. Another half decent one however would be the escalation protocol style event on the moon. Its throws wave after wave of enemies at you and due to it being bassically a public event your weapons will be doing cracked damage and amo will be plentiful.

I'll start by saying that for red border weapons the fastest way to unlock patterns is just to scrap the guns... it's a total waste of time to actually fill out the kills on them unless you actively want to keep that specific gun (in which case why do you need to craft it you already have the gun you want surely?). At least unless you're crafting multiple enhanced weapons in short succession you'll drop enough red borders to keep neutral element filled without too much issue.

beyond that to actively boost the kill count on any weapon be it for levelling, unlocking or just boosting the stat tracker your best bet is the shuro chi encounter in the last wish raid. at the start of the raid before any encounters you can access a wall that allows you to skip ahead to any encounter and then you can just farm the ~80 thralls that spawn before you die and start over. you can also use raid banners to keep your ammo high if its a special of heavy weapon.

alternatively you can use the intro to the grasp of avarice dungeon or when it's available the weeky moon mission where you grab the cryptoglyph from underground also has a high spawn rate of easy to kill enemies.

failing these (namely if you're a free to play player who doesnt have access to these. the intro the vault of glass has a guaranteed (but much slower) swarm of enemies to kill.

if you're actively after weapon levels i've found that blasting through rounds of gambit using primarily the weapon i want to level has done me well for both my glaives but any fast crucible gamemode or strike playlist will suffice as well so long as you stick around to the end of the activity. (bonus points since this also allows a small trickle of upgrade materials too and you can farm gunsmith xp from the weapons taht drop).

hope this helped

You don't have to complete the attunement to extract the pattern. You can just dismantle it.

Veles Labyrinth is pretty good, lots of adds and being in tunnels keeps them from spreading out.
But if all you care about is the pattern, you can just dismantle them and get 100 of the material and progress the pattern.

Two strikes will fill them (no matter if you use them or not, just have them equipped) also if you're looking for Doritos.

Huh ... that actually works? I've been a little leery to try it out.

-Dismantled weapons with Deepsight will provide pattern progress if a pattern is available.
-Dismantled weapons with Deepsight will provide 100 Neutral Element.
-If the objective is completed and the item is dismantled or the Deepsight mod extracted, 300 Neutral Element will be acquired.
-When a Deepsight weapon with a pattern is dismantled or extracted, players will be notified via loot stream that pattern progress has been made.

I usually head over to Altars of Sorrow on the Moon. It's a great spot with tons of enemies to finish deepsight and bounties.

If you go on a Reshaping spree like I did, you'll need the extra 200 Elements from going through the motions per weapon. :P

[Chillin]

depends what patterns you want. for witchqueen weapons i just did loads of bountys and racked up enegrams. for the rest i used the terminals and did the activites every week to get 2 free deepsites of my choice.

Don't need to complete them anymore, dismantling gives you pattern progress if there is an applicable pattern to unlock.
