I know this ain't the screenshot thread, but I gotta say, at times the game looks so good it's almost the main thing that keeps me coming back :p

Yeah I got one of those ships as well in the Ishtar Commons cause I wanted to see what loot I could yield. I basically killed all the enemies in the middle, hoped for drops, and instead of running back and forth waiting for them to respawn I ran around the Commons in a circle checking all the chest spots because they all reset when you run back to the Commons entrance. 2 for 1 yay.

Is it a good ship and/or worth whatever effort it costs?
 
Are motes of light only used to buy from the speaker? or should I save them to upgrade something at some point?

Xur, the special weekend vendor, was selling an Exotic Chest Engram for 23 motes of light last weekend. His wares may change this weekend, but I'm betting he'll sell something requiring motes of light again.

Can someone post the video of the guy using hit motes for light for the exotic chest piece, the getting an item for the wrong class, then jumping off the side of the tower

Non-gold chests respawn fairly often. And you can get ship schematics in them. I think I've seen...5 different ones thus far. Don't particularly care for them compared to what I bought.

This whole entire time i thought the only chests that existed were the gold ones!

Ok hit Crucible Rank 2 today so I just straight up bought legendary armor:

Once I hit Vanguard Rank 2 I'll buy my chest piece. I also have enough coins and motes to get some exotic stuff once Xur appears. Fuck the RNG!

Congrats. That's the way to do it. I'm hoping to get to this point by this weekend as well. I have one legendary, so I plan on buying a helmet and chest piece, and then gauntlets from Xur, unless he changes things up. I'll wait and see what he's selling first.

Well at the time I wasn't even looking for one or even had the intent to find one. I was just being lazy and listened to the Bombcast while I ran around rechecking chests for spirit bloom and glimmer. When I actually got it I don't think I even noticed because I didn't even realize I got a ship schematic until I checked the inventory slot. It sorta just... Happened.

It was a white ship called the Outrageous Fortune and it looks very nice. I don't care much for it but it at least looks nice
 
I don't even know why I tried farming. All the blue stuff I got ended up getting dismantled along with the greens and the purple was a hunter's helmet when I'm a warlock. For fuck's sake.

Been farming temple of Crota for the past couple days off and on, kinda bored. In Gaf's most celebrated opinion what is the best chest farming locale?

921 Vanguard reputation to go. If I could do 37 high patrols I'll reach level 2 but I'm going to hit bed now and hopefully the bounties in the morning will be worth 100 each. That will net me 500 on top so I'll have about 400 reputation to get which I'll do through Patrols and Strikes.

I hope I can do it because then I'll have enough Marks to purchase 2 or possibly 3 Legendary items. Hopefully new shaders release tomorrow as well.

God and to think I was going to do video walkthroughs on my time with Destiny, I've already put in over 80 hours or more.
 
Anybody know where any hive majors or ultras might be for this bounty? I haven't struggled with this one before, but I just can't seem to find any today.

Level 4 story on Earth, at the end is a Hive Major so kill it then let yourself be killed. Repeat 10 times.

It's a grind but it eliminates a lot of frustration. Afterwards I have to get Vanguard and Crucible to level 3 just in case I can't find legendary weapons.

I've reached the point where I have to start dismantling blue gear, too. Still might do some farming tomorrow, though. I was gonna do some right now, but my father lost the power cable to our upstairs TV. :lol

I think I saw someone say the easiest way to do that was to kill the Hive in the tunnels under the Cosmodrome, near where you first spawn.

Yeah that was ridiculous as fuck. I didn't even realize that this strike was the one with Phogoth as the boss or I wouldn't have even tried it, that fight is so fucking dumb. Oh well, at least its taken care of and now I have enough Strange Coins to grab an exotic engram this weekend.

Thanks guys for the help btw, y'all did much more damage than me hahaha

I thought motes of light were used to buy the exotic engrams?
