It really is where the magic comes from...

Anyone else remember goatsee?

It's gotta spawn somewhere, right?

Try not to make it too much fun, or Bungie might patch it.

bungie why... why did you do this! going to the loot cave is an american past time like going to a baseball game with your favorite team playing ... yeah you can sit there for hours just watching, eating hotdogs and peanuts and drinking beer or soda. and mabey just mabey you might catch a home run. with this nerf…

This is a sad day...

Even though the loot cave was an ineffective way to gain legendary armor and it was much simpler to just play crucible and strikes, I loved the cave. Reaching the cave with my fireteam and having other random teams already there was exciting. Spending an hour or two shooting the cave and making a routine connected the…

That was the best part of the game
