Are you tired of having to kill thousands of enemies to level up, wasting valuable “awake’ time which could be spent on customizing your character’s eyebrow colour?<\/p>\n

If your answer is yes, then we have some good news for you: Destiny player\u00a0yavin247 has built a controller which allows him to rise through the ranks while he sleeps.<\/p>\n

A short video of how the device works is posted below, but it is basically a set of motorised arms which push the controller’s trigger buttons, which in turn make his character shoot and punch repeatedly.<\/p>\n

“Woke up this morning to a brand new 20! [Guardian]” he said on Reddit<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Had about 3,600 kills, and 900 deaths (LOL), and like 50 green engrams. I started at level 16.5 yesterday afternoon, and reached 20 sometime while I was asleep. With the armour I had waiting for him he is now a 26.”<\/p>\n

To ensure his character does not get kicked by Bungie for inactivity, the resourceful gamer included a modification to ensure his player moves slightly every now and then.<\/p>\n

“I did it more for the hell of it, and I’ll be the first to admit I could have done it much faster manually. To those saying it’s pathetic, I don’t disagree with you. But it’s much less an exploit than a bit of fun, just to see if it could be done, and no one else was negatively affected by it.<\/p>\n
