Starting to feel the lack of content complaints. Grinding the same half dozen strikes for 2-3 marks a pop when it takes 65 to buy anything worthwhile, nevermind that marks reset every week.

Marks? What are those? And they reset every week? If that's something you need to progress someone like me with limited time is screwed.

Crucible and Vanguard marks are earned by playing the Crucible and doing Vanguard playlist and stuff like that. They do not reset every week, as noted in multiple replies to that post. You can only earn 100 a week and that cap resets. There are even things that cost over 100 x.x Like the sparrows that cost 175.
 
Does the "day 1 Vanguard pack" in the box nerf the game too much? I hate being OP in the beginning of games.

Wondering if it's worth using, or if I should save it for when I resell the game (assuming I do) to entice buyers .
 
I really, really want the Hawkmoon =/

Bought one of those exotic engrams and lucked out, got one for Hunter. Downside is, since it's a chestpiece, it overlaps with the only legendary I have for my class lol. Need 2 more coins so I can buy Red Death and finally have a weapon higher than Rare.

Damn dude. That's a lot of coins

It's just level 5 gear that's slightly better than normal level 5 gear. And the weapons don't have any modifiers. They're slightly stronger than normal level 5 weapons, but no special bonuses.

Edit: Also you have to buy the stuff. The unlock just lets you do that.
 
Man, I want to get all these Grimoire bonus' leveled up. They are so hidden away on Bungie.net. I wonder if most people know about em.

It's completely possible to find better items before you get the glimmer for the set. It's unremarkable stuff.

Nope, they'll help you out when you're having a drought and not getting decent drops, but that doesn't last too long. And they aren't accessible until Level 5 and you have to pay 250 glimmer for one item. They scale to level 10 once you hit that level, but never go higher. The guns themselves have decent damage for their level, but no special upgrades to them like other Uncommon level guns have.
 
No ammo drops!?
oh gahd

I think he means the story mission, and I think there are ammo drops, just not for the weapon slot you're using. Like, no primary ammo if you're using primary. That's just what I was told, I haven't checked it myself yet.

Edit: Yeah, "Juggler: No ammo drops for your equipped weapon." name makes it sound like you're supposed to switch around.
 
Woke up sick so I gamed for about 3 hours and got all the vanguard bounties done. Gonna take a nap and get back on later. Hopefully I get to rank 1 of my new faction by the end of the day.
 
Making small talk with a customer and I ask him what he's up to today and he says "Destiny"

He's a level 11 Hunter.

Damn Destiny. You everywhere in my life.

Thanks guys.
 
How can I get more strange coins?

I have 2, 3 from the weekly mission is 5... How do I get enough for the sunbreakers?

Quoting myself from earlier:

For one-offs, the weekly strikes provide them once per difficulty. After that, it becomes a matter of luck and preference. Personally, I think either the Crucible or Nexus farming is best.

The Crucible has a chance of giving coins outright and a chance at engrams which can provide coins.

Nexus farming can get you around 10 engrams in an hour which have chances at being strange coins.

Pick your poison =p

Besides that, public events can also provide them or other materials.
 
I've heard public events have a decent chance of handing them out. Decoding blue and higher engrams has a chance, and there's also a chance to get them in PVP.
