I'm not sure how i feel about the farming, maybe i just have bad luck but i didn't get much more than i normally get just doing strike playlists (at least that guarantees a blue for completing it). Plus i like to actually play the game.

But I might check it out tonight while i watch football snapped in the corner, apparently you dont even have to shoot.

Protip for farming Hive - use wax idols for crazy amounts of glimmer.

But will do anyways, because they will just take up inventory space

Well you'll need glimmer to buy your class specific item for each war faction. They're 2500 each and there are 4 factions so you'll need at least 10,000 to be able to join them all. After that just keep whichever you want to level equipped while doing crucible matches until you level up enough to purchase legendary gear and weapons.

I use glimmer to help (barely) leveling up the cryptarch, especially when he has green class items.

You can also buy new sparrows and ships, although that's super useless.

The chest is in the same room as Sepiks Prime. Go in through the main door, hang a right, down the stairs in the corner, chest is straight ahead.

I've got those ammo consumables from those chests.... Thats it though. What are some of the things you guys have received?

[f0rge]

Other than that Uncommon Sparrow? Nothing worth noting, random green crap that's never useful is about the best.

[tahdizzle]

I got a legendary cloak that allows you to gain FWC rep.

So I have 3 legendary items not for my class. Really tempted to just dismantle them for shards.

[tahdizzle]

I need 6 more dang strange coins by tomorrow!

[wheelhaus]

Or until Sunday morning-ish, He hangs out almost all weekend.

[tahdizzle]

That gives me enough time to get 6 legendary engrams to have them decoded for strange coins... wah wah waaaaah

[tahdizzle]

Hopefully the Nine vendor will have Monte Carlo! (good thing i don't have destiny on XboxOne.)

[f0rge]

Gah I only have 7 strange coins and 16 motes of light. Looks like I'm not getting anything from Xur this weekend :/

On another note, I hung around the Russia "treasure cave" last night for about 2-3 hours while watching the football game and picked up a ton of blue and probably 5 purple engrams. Got to level 25 FINALLY.

Sadly most of the purples that turned out purple were weapons, ended up with 2 sniper rifles that i'll never use (i'm a shotgun guy). Also got a purple warlock bond for my hunter....yay?

Hey guys,

PSN: SnarffPenguin
Class: 25 Hunter(to be a lot higher after spending my 30 strange coins and crucible points on legendary gear)

Feel free to add me in game, I'm on pretty frequently

[tahdizzle]

Rocket Launcher Exotic?! Booo!

Guess I'll wait for next week. Exotic chest engram though.

He better have Monte Carlo!
