10 Video Game Exploits We All Did

10. Loot Cave - Destiny

Destiny Loot Cave
Bungie

I can’t think of many more iconic places to start than Destiny’s infamous loot cave so that’s exactly where we’ll kick this one off.

Cast your mind back to 2014 and the pew-pew fans among you will likely remember when Destiny players uncovered a respawn zone that would let them almost infinitely farm enemies for drops and experience. The cave was found behind Skywatch in the Cosmodrome on Earth. Essentially, you were expected to stand far enough away so the cave would keep churning out baddies and you could keep looting their corpses. Bungie cottoned on pretty fast and shut down the loot cave, subbing in a pile of charred remains that, when activated, reads, "A million deaths are not enough for Master Rahool."

It’s a cute nod to all the murdering you did there and if you played Destiny and didn’t at least try this one please expect your righteous gamer pin in the mail.
