Maybe their spider sense just tingles about my incompetence?

I have to admit that I enjoyed Iron Banner more than I thought I would. Had my best PvP match since playing Destiny. Some of those guys hit hard, I know somethings are "leveled" but I'll get a couple hits on someone and BAM one hit on me and I go down.

So a couple questions. I've maxed out my Titan Striker sub-class, haven't started working on the Defender sub-class. What's the advantage, if any, to working on the sub-classes? I equipped it for about 2 minutes last night and then realized I didn't even have grenades so it seemed like taking a step backwards. I'm sure there has to be some reason to work on it right? Does it help with your light level?

Also, what's the best way to get ascendant shards and strange coins? I know a few missions state that you can get strange coins as a reward, I still haven't figured out how the ascendant shards actually drop. Where are you all learning this stuff? Trial and error, going to Bungies website, word of mouth, etc? I got an ascendant shard as a reward last night for getting three gold stars on a public event, so obviously that is one way you can get them.

Lol depends on the strike, sometimes you get the same one over and over again (Archon Priest for me) and then I quit.

I have both my Hunter classes maxed out, I change them when i feel like mixing things up. There's no real point if you like the Striker. I originally did it because I felt like i was wasting EXP when i turned in bounties.

Ascendant Shards - Public events (at least 1 per day) and buying equipment with marks and dismantling it seem to be the best ways.

Strange coints - the weekly strike on hard (lvl28) will give you 9, other than that RNG rewards for strikes and crucible and sometimes engrams
