I'M GOING I'M GOING I'M GOING
Its possible to power lvl an alt of the same class and hit lvl20 before Xur leaves. Frankly I understand buying IB if you dont have one, however I am with zewone on this. 1 is more than enough but each their own
it is an amazing gun nonetheless.Thanks but... no, I rather use Thorn. Yes I did play hours with both to make my decision.
its annoying when currencies are added to obviously slow progress and extend the grind, like the vanguard/crucible commendations. there was really no need to add these, at all. its pretty simple to roll over your vanguard once a week by doing a few bounties a day and the weekly+nightfall (500 rep each), and then you still have to grind the max of 100 marks a week, which isn't even enough to buy some armor pieces and weapons. they are completely unnecessary and i have 14 of them in my vault wasting space
they could have let you spend commendations to "reroll" vanguard items as that mechanic is already built into the game (iron banner).
i really dont understand it, maybe its groundwork for something rolling out in the future that will use the currency, but it wouldn't be like bungie to let us stockpile these things in the meantime
this is like the only thing you've been right about on the last two pages.
it is for me. I think I did this 3 times total, to accomodate nightfalls. way, way too tedious for me.
Ice Breaker is also immediately valuable without a single upgrade unlike many exotics.
Welcome to the Grind fest.
If you're got 12 coins and zero Exotic armor, try to get that extra coin. The Hunter helm Xûr is selling is a fantastic choice for Gunslingers and will help you level up quickly (it starts at 30 Light and goes up to 36 when maxed).
If you haven't opened all the Gold Chests on Mars, the fourth one has a guaranteed Strange Coin. With that you should be set
Google for Mars Gold Chest Locations and be on your way.xplicitone

Unless I can get carried most of the way, I don't think I can hit 20 on a new character before Sunday morning. I really do need to create an alt at some point though...

one is enuogh. if your buying more than one your just incredbly impatient and cant bare the thought of taking 3 minutes of your day to to fly to the tower and pick it up out the vault. it will take you longer to level it anyway for total time than having to swap it out a few times a day.

I have like 10 Vanguard commendations and I already own most of the Vanguard weapons from drops. What am I supposed to do with them?????
No, you're not with zewone. He's basically saying it isn't worth it to even have 1, as there are a lot of better options out there. I agree completely you only need 1. I only have 1. In fact, I got a 2nd drop and sharded it. But to advise someone who doesn't have one to not worry about getting one is crazy.Its possible to power lvl an alt of the same class and hit lvl20 before Xur leaves.

The last time Xur sold it and I got it (first time using it), I immediately went and ran the daily mission with it and literally didn't use any other weapon the entire time.
Love that damn gun.
AND the fact that it provides infinite ammo for your OTHER special weapons? I mean, come on.
So! I was doing the Fusion Rifle bounty at everyone's favorite spot in the Cosmodrome. Some Titan smuck comes in and Supers my next batch of Dregs and Vandals. Leaves and heads towards the Blade of Crota event. I follow him then I Super the Blade and his goons, take the sword, and leave. As I'm running away I can feel his anger as he pelts me with his bullets in vain. He then follows me to the Fusion Rifle spot and proceeds to stand in the spawn zone to attempt to ruin my fun. Little did he know I was afk troubleshooting some streaming problems, and came back ready to turn off my PS4 and do something else. Now I am in a battle to out AFK this guy, and there's no way he will win.
EDIT: And like I said I win the afk battle!

Might make Glasshouse my new priority on the Titan, Obsidian Mind definitely on my Warlock, gonna play around with a Hunger/Soul Rip build. Any Voidwalkers that like Bad Juju also make sure to buy the hell out of that helm.
Besides, you should leave the last part out of your argument altogether. Ice Breaker leveling is irrelevant, it's a devastating weapon immediately and its unique feature is unlocked out of the box. It'll just level as it's used, for me.
One is absolutely enough
but that's me.

I agree the idea of re-leveling a bunch of dupes is not exactly the most tantalizing task, however, I have nothing to level other than exotics. Now that they don't require ascendant materials (I never had that big of a stock pile) I can just dump bounty XP into exotics when ever I run them. I have plenty of exotic shards, and the random marks I get each week are always more than enough to buy the planetary mats required to level any exotic weapon. Unlike my class mats, I have weapons parts for days and they can be moved character to character. Now, if only I could dump XP into more than one exotic at a time!

If you don't have IB yet at all, buy it. Don't listen to anyone who says otherwise, buy it. Buying multiples is someone's own decision, but the fact that many people here are buying multiples for all their characters should tell you something about how good the gun is.

Gotcha, well wish you luck with quest for the 3 strange coins!
Hmm I was under the impressions he was saying it was pointless to have more than 1 copies of an exotic weapon. Maybe I read it wrong haha who knows?
the glasshouse is cool, but it only extends WoL/BoL by 5 seconds. i think its handy in something like the Atheon fight where 5 more seconds of WoL can make a big difference but it would be difficult to justify its use in other situations (especially when you re-dip into the bubble) over helm of saint 14 and ruin wings, the benefits of which are huge
it also looks bad with every single shader in the game except thunderdevil, then it just looks okay

Already ran it, but have no problems helping out tomorrow
I'll send you an invite tomorrow morning. Heading straight to a hockey game after work. Won't be on tonight.
Thanks, buddy
Dear fellow Gaffers I need your assistance with something.
Since Xur decided to sell something good for once and I 'm in China on business trip, I gave a friend of mine my psn account details but he needs my assistance to guide him on how to create a second account without affecting the one he already has.
Are there any simple instructions on how to do that?
I remember on ps3 it used to be a piece of cake, but from what I have seen that is not the case on ps4...
Thank you in advance

Oh man I am that guy. I love camping the spots in the cosmodrome or on Venus where people do the 20 super bounty. I will play dumb at first and then see who quits first. I enjoy being an asshole.

Purchased my self the obsidian mind(finally something I wanted for my warlock) and an ice breaker to replace the dismantled one.
So got damn excited, I'll be buying 3 I grind all day everyday anyway.

Guess Ill burn some coins on Obsidian Mind, Glasshouse, and maybe the Symbiote if I ever finish my hunter.
Also everything looks good with thunderdevil.
i think the glass house looks better on the male exo, it looks weird on my female titan, like a bobble head

lol I can't believe people are debating whether to buy IB or not.
Btw finished Crota with third character, shards all the way and my fifth Black Hammer while no one in my fireteam has one. Immediately dismantled it so they can see it on their screens too

I think a lot of the armor for titans looks better on the male models.
Yeah, I meant fusion rifle, not pulse rifle. I got them confused.
I love my Efrideet's Spear from last IB. I re-rolled to get faster reload speed when the mag is empty and last round does bonus damage. With a three round clip one out of every three shots is bonus and the reloads are super fast. Being tied for the highest impact with BH it hits like a monster.

IB x2, Obsidian Mind and Glasshouse bought. My coin stock is at 3 coins right now, it hasn't been that low since week 1. Thankfully I have yet to do the weekly x3.
Damn, how many motes did that cost ya. I spend like 26 and I had to stop at a Solar one with field scout, grenadier and kills grant bonus reserve ammo. Not really what I wanted but I need the motes for the other guns too..

Basically when the exclusivity is up, Xur will probably sell everything not from bounties. Except Ballerhorn, you'll never see it again, muhahaha
As simple as that? No need for manage subscriptions, parental controls and other crap I read when searching for it? Or is that necessary only for game sharing?
Man I feel better now... Thank you iRAWRasaurus!
I'm game if you need more people but don't need any drops.

the hawkmoon hype is out of control... it's not even in the same tier as gjallarhorn and ice breaker.
gjallarhorn and ice breaker are the two standout exotics, i'd say ice breaker is the one that will get you trough most of the encounters but that's debatable. every other exotic is just nice to own.
