What is the best way on farming glimmer nowadays?

The Exclusion Zone Mars mission on the first heroic difficulty, use a resupply code right after the first ghost hack. First wave is normal Cabal enemies, the second is some majors, centurion and two phalanxes. Get killed by the phalanxes, repeat.

You'll also get resupply codes and network keys.

Guys best way to farm glimmer is first Mars mission exclusion zone on heroic. Open the door and kill 6 yellow duded and some other scum die and repeat. With resuplly codes that's like 10k glimmer in 20 minutes.
Cosmodrome is faster when the hives don't disappear.
Exclusion Zone is a bit slower, but more reliable.

Pick your poison! ^^
 
I tried to do that with the Black Wax Idol on but I only got like 140 from round. And sometimes they disappear for minutes... Well time to go back to Earth.

I use this method, kill the dregs, vandals and shanks at the top of the stairs to keep them spawning. They will eventually stop spawning after a while, when they do, kill the enemies by the rock near the crashed aircraft, that gets them to re-spawn.

Kinda pissed that it was only gloves and boots sold with IB.

Now loads of people are gonna be 30 but am I?

No am I fuck.

I've got 5 pairs of boots and 3 pairs of raid gloves.

All I want is a fucking chest or helmet (preferably the raid helmet) but no. That's too much to ask for aint it :/

Same situation for me, I was tempted to get the boots/gloves from IB just to have a different look but I didn't want to waste my glimmer on something that had no effect. I'm using the Praxic Fire chest piece so my only chance of getting a helmet right now is hoping it drops in hard raid, of which I have 1 chance of each week.

So after 10 hours with IB over the weekend I reached level 4 and got the level 30 gauntlets and boots. I was also rather fortunate in having timur's lash and Jolder's Hammer drop for me in matches.

I have to admit I rather enjoyed it this time despite playing with randoms quite a lot.

Couple of quick questions though:

Is Perun's fire worth getting as I already have a fully upgraded Light/Beware with the faster charge rate perk?

I'm now level 29 and only need the helm to reach level 30. Is this only obtainable in the hard mode raid?

I need a total of 95 helium filaments to upgrade my boots/gauntlets. Is there a reliable run on the moon?

I finally leveled up my Icebreaker and Corrective Measure. I had been putting it off for weeks now.

Hive raid I are ready!

I'm in the process of levelling my solar accelerated coil grenadier Light/Beware to destroy those wizards. My Thunderlord has been ready for ages and awaits those knights with great anticipation. Thinking that my striker build might be a more viable option this raid compared to VoG, since I can see them throwing hundreds of thralls at us this time.

One thing Iron Banner has taught me is that I'm just not so good at PvP. I'm not going to complain about the PvP problems that everyone mentions (like how lag makes laggers more invincible than non laggers). I can wreck the VoG hard and all other PvE content in Destiny easily. But I don't ever really play PvP in shooters, and in Destiny my k/d ratio is usually embarrassing. I do really try though. I don't have that quick perfect aiming reflex, and I often get flanked, and I don't have a good sense for finding where my enemies are before they take me out. I've decided today that I'm probably just never going to finish the Invective exotic bounty.

I got the Invective, but I forgot what PvP bounty you have to do?

Don't be silly. You can easily complete that bounty with a few matches of a kd > 1 (even 1.1 is fine) as long as you get kills and loads of assists. Pick up a shot gun, stick to tight corridors and make hay

I'm below average in PvP but the Invective bounty is doable. Just dont try to think about it too much and combine it with some other Crucible bounties.
 
We are a team of 4-5 guys who are going to try the Vault of Glass today at 17:00 (GMT +1) and we need 1-2 guys. Anyone interested? Only one of us have tried the raid before so you don't have to be good. Most of us are level 28.

You can also send me a friend invite on PSN. My PSN name is nevernuder.

i can see myself in how you describe your PvP self and i can assure you that the invective bounty is easy as pie...

Thorn bounty on the other hand... i can see myself doing it only with a void primary, which at this rate i'll never own

Mars, Exclusion Zone mission on hard difficulty. Clear the first wave of legionaries and the next one that spawns has over a dozen yellow mobs. I just sit there and pick them off with a scout rifle. Nets you ~500 glimmer per clear, takes about 2 minutes to clear it. I made 6k to get my IB stuff I needed in about 20 mins.

You know that, thanks to you, either the PSN or Bungie's servers will be down the entire day, now?
Or both...

Hey! Nice Hunter IB gloves cosplay!
*thumbs up*

Haha, I think it will be fine. Most of the content seems to be seeded out with the huge patch the other week, and I didn't have that many issues on launch so... But who knows. :)

I assume the Dark Below Vidoc is ancient but I didn't see it mentioned. Some good stuff in there.

Wow - that looks really cool! I am even more hyped than usual. Hopefully, they have found a way to keep VOG weapons relevant (I'm guessing normal raid). Also, looks like the sword will be more freely available.

Looks great that they are revealing awesome exotics, but it would be very nice to see a few surprises popping up from the community, just like when the Mythoclast was first revealed.

I am looking to run it with one of my alts on normal, I'd be happy to guide you guys through it. I've done numerous hard completions, so no worries there.
Problem is I won't be on until 19:00 / 19:30 GMT +1. I'll add you (PSN is TearsOfBlood) when I get on and if you still need someone by then, just shoot me a message. Otherwise, good luck!

Yeah the VEX should be the go to OP weapon. Its the hardest to come by, you cant buy it. Find it so strange and sad that they nerfed it so much that a gun you can buy is stronger.

Yeah, can't wait for the new patch to come out. I think it will be the go-to super weapon until the raid comes out.

But think of all those cheesers who have it...

I got it legit the first time I ran hard, so it did suck a lot when the nerf came.

Thanks man! There's a big chance we'll still be playing at that time. And if we aren't I'm sure there'll be plenty more opportunities to play together. :)

Thanks everyone! The Thorn bounty is finished for me. I've got Thorn. But for some reason Invective has been stuck in my inventory for a long while. It was one of the first exotic bounties that I got, and I have finished all the other exotic bounties so far. I really don't think about it that much when I PvP (and I don't PvP very much except for this week during Iron Banner I played a bunch yesterday and today). Invective bounty just hasn't been easy for me.... I guess I would just need to find a good place to camp and use shotguns is what you are saying... Thanks again!
 
Any GAF bros up for doing gatekeepers to Atheon on hard mode today before the reset?

I have the checkpoint on two characters (level 30 warlock and 29 hunter, both with maxed weapons fate bringer, corrective measure, ice breaker etc).

I should be home around 8pm ish (UK GMT time).

Level 30's would be great for a smooth run through.


Let me know guys;

PSN: MandrakeUK

Oh as PSN can be slow as hell, feel free to email me here too as I will be checking.

Ok, so, watching a stream of a good pvp player: you can shoot on the titan grenade to disable it? '____'

You got Thorn but no Invective? I found Invective to be super easy. I'm gonna try Thorn again tonight in IB with a maxed AE and all my Void Specials/Heavies. If I don't get it that way, I don't deserve it lol
