i'm confused how you get the emblems, I did the one for my sunsinger where you get the kills in a strike, all I got was some 220 bond.

That's a different quest. For each subclass, there's a PvE quest (which you did with your Sunsinger and a PvP quest. The former reward you class items, the latter reward you emblems.
 
Ive got this to come, I just need to get the 25 PvP then glitch all 3 for the quest then Warlock Void, Hunter Solar and Titan Arc and I think I've got ghosts for all 4 materials

Been doing the calcified fragments all afternoon and am at 34/50 and have no stolen runes am I fucked http://destinycalcifiedfragments.com/psn/mehrmantrout . Ive also still got the taken wars to do but don't think I can take much more of this it's a whole new level of mind numbing nonsense they've introduced

For new page

Also a word of warning if you're running Oryx for no rewards it will still take the 20 shards at the end if you have them in your inventory, I had 22 at the start of the raid last night and had 2 this morning
 
Np, thanks for helping out as well.


Best reason for maining a warlock =D.

All three were fairly easy. Also, I found the rasputin mission to be the best place to farm. You're way less likely to fuck up the checkpoint as opposed to waking the hive.

I'm doing it with Hunter and its equally easy for all three elements. Siege of Warmind + Bad Juju and you get 2 supers per run, and the whole thing takes 20-30min max. Collecting rares is the most tedious part of the quest.
 
SGA from Reddit:

Okay, so I'm sure many of my fellow Hunters are debating whether or not to buy the Celestial Nighthawk from Xur this weekend. After all, we already have the blueprint for the Y2 version, and are just waiting on saving up the necessary Legendary Marks. Since Xur's roll isn't all that hot, why would we buy it?

Simply put, right now the Kiosk roll for the Nighthawk is PERFECT. Max Intellect, Inverse Shadow, and the perk that starts shield regen upon orb pickup. Its insane. And, I didn't know this until yesterday, but if you own a Y2 version of an exotic, you do NOT need Legendary Marks to get it - just an Exotic Shard and some Glimmer. So, you buy the Y2 Nighthawk for 13 coins from Xur, shard it, then go get the Nighthawk from the Kiosk for a shard and some glimmer. You get a net loss of some glimemr and 13 SCs for an AMAZING roll on one of the BEST class Exotics!

It was already mentioned how good the kiosk roll was on certain exotics but you can save a ton of marks by simply buying the Xur Y2 version and grabbing a dupe out of the kiosk for an exotic shard.

wait if you buy it from xur

why do you shard it and then pick it up again from the blueprint collection? Isn't that redundant?

I actually need to do this part. Is lvl 295 enough? I have the void sword

Recommended light is 300, but you should be fine. However, we're gonna need a third from here, otherwise we risk a dumbass random killing the wardens. I've got the Arc sword, by the way. So we need to be careful with the wardens.

Ok I should be on in about 20 minutes. psn: minimumhippo
So the idea is we get the boss down till he's near death, then kill the wardens and quickly kill the boss?

I'm assuming this is for people who hadn't already found a Year 2 Nighthawk yet (which is probably most people); if you had the Year 1 version but not Year 2, it costs 150 Marks to pull out a Year 2 exotic. For most people it's probably instead most cost efficient to just spend 13 coins at Xur to unlock the Year 2 blueprint.
 
Oh so you're saying that if you buy it from Xur, the highest level of that item shows up in your kiosk?

...That's a bit broke.
Well, once you obtain any Y2 exotic they become unlocked in the kiosk. People just realized they have really good rolls on the kiosk version.

So you can save some marks by not doing the Y1 -> Y2 unlock and just buying the Y2 versions from Xur when available.
 
When are Bungie going to reward me with one of these sniper shotguns that everyone else is running around with? I can shoot someone at about one meter and i'll take down their shield.

Someone can shotgun me from about 10 meters away and i'll die without even knowing what happened.

I thought crucible was meant to be someone normalised so that the few who spend 15 hours a day playing couldn't just use their beast shotgun to get sniper kills?

xur's has higher light, but infusion makes it irrelevant because you want stats

I see. I didn't know anyone was doing the Y1>Y2 unlocking >_>;

I can't believe people are trying so hard on Twitch to unlock a secret that probably gives you another 2 moldering shards, some wormspore, and some primary ammo synth.

One of the taken king quests will reward you with a Conspiracy Theory D shotgun with max range and rangefinder perks. Just keep doing quests and you'll get it.

If you want a felwinters it's too late, that's for year one players only. However there won't be any of those in Iron Banner or Trials :)

Correct. However, I can't recall how much health the wardens have, so just to be sure, we should maybe get their health down too before we coordinate to kill them. Let's each focus on our respective warden.

also it's why i'm buying all the exotics off xur for all classes, coins are plentiful and it's "cheaper" in terms of effort to unlock the blueprints that way than wait for RNG or spending marks

First one the other guy had damage reduction due to fist of panic, 2nd one was because the guy was a red bar warrior.

Sounds good. So we need 1 more person for last part of the exotic sword quest in about 15 minutes. Anyone?

Crucible is actually more fucked than ever. Get used to things feeling unfair when youre playing.

I dont think people care about the rewards as much as just being the first ones to solve the puzzle.

Been trying to play PvP for close to an hour with not a single win. Trying to do mayhem clash playlist and get to the next step in the crucible questline. I'm over this :(
