he said 266%, which would be 133 points. That still seems a little high.

nope, 133 is exactly how many points you're getting with all of the buffs.

also....LEVEL 5 beeches!!!! done and DONE.

Reading comprehension is good.

Only three more wins until I get to level 4. Going to get Perun's Fire and the boots. Then all I need is an exotic helm and then the grind begins for shards and mats.

Best glimmer spot is on the exclusion zone mission on Mars. Kill all the yellow cabal with the extra glimmer buffs on at the beginning that drop from the ship. Then just kill yourself or have one kill you and repeat. You'll have maxed out in 30 or 40 minutes

Nice, never thought about glimmer farming there. I've been going to the ember caves on Venus patrol and doing an endless loop of that area, usually get about 1,000 glimmer per ether seed.

I farm on venus too. The better spot, if you have the Vex glimmer buff, is the Vex area just past the Ember Caves.

My grind it to hop up to the platform with the 2 Minotaur majors, snipe the hobgoblins to the left, then jump down and kill the 3 minitaurs and various goblins to the right. Then jump back up to the platform and repeat.

If you jump back up and the minotaur majors haven't respawned you can snipe from there and pick off mobs until they respawn.

rinse and repeat. Usually got for 1,500 - 2,000 and 1 or 2 blue engrams per blue poly****e

Another area I was thinking was the opening area of the VoG with all of the yellow Praetorians. It will just be an endless run sense you wouldn't be capping the spire.

Got both of my boots and gloves. Now I just need an exotic helm and should be go for 30. Then I can truly feel like I have experienced this game. And then be ready for the expansion.

Today the buff is 150%.....And here is some more math.

1.1 (Shader) x 1.1 (Class Item) x 1.1 (emblem) x 2.5 (Buff) = 333%

50 Rep/Win x 3.33 = 166.5 Rep per win

i've farmed glimmer at the gatekeeper portion of the VOG before. We had gotten to there, and some folks had to leave, so i went back by myself and keep killing all the yellow vex and the first gatekeeper, then jumping off the cliff to do again.

Yes. That's why I have boots listed there.

Boots give you the buff? I thought it was only the class items at level 4, ie the Warlock bond, Hunter cape, and Titan towels.

Great HM VoG run last night. Thanks to JRyder, JDAggie, and Donde for joining up with three of my usual crew for an all-Aggie run. I think our official time from Oracles to done was around 1:16?

The most impressive part of the run was that after wiping to a shield glitch after our 3rd Atheon portal (when we were seconds from killing him), on our second try we killed him in just two portal phases - I'm not sure I've seen him go down that fast even in normal mode.

Good luck to everyone who is finishing up their Iron Banner marathons tonight!

NOTE OF CAUTION!!!!!!

I just grinded out 10k glimmer to buy a piece of Iron Banner armor to break down into shards....

THEY DO NOT BREAK DOWN INTO SHARDS!!!!

I just spent 9,950 glimmer for 3 pieces of sapphire wire.

Yeah, this is common knowledge. Sorry you found out the hard way. This was patched during the queens wrath, bc people were farming ascendant materials.

Lucked out on the raid tonight. Got raid gauntlets to go with my raid chestpiece, then bought the iron banner boots. I'll have a lvl 30 Warlock and 30 Hunter for some hard mode raids + expansion.
