Can't under estimate the value of a maxed out VoC or AEp either!!! You may have a brand new shiny legendary, but those oracles require a special touch.

Hard mode is going to be rough, but worth the rewards (hopefully)

Damn. I have the gear, but not the shards. I've been kind of casual about CE.

Xur is selling ice breaker and obsidian helm this weekend. I know there's more, but these are the two I care about.

Yeah... Anyone who doesn't have it should make buying the Ice Breaker their number one priority. Probably the most handy gun to have in the game.

This is what frustrates me about the game. I told you guys about the Good Advice bounty yesterday, and then last night I get the other exotic machine gun after the weekly. No exotics for months and then they double me up on the same type weapon in the same day.

So upset I wasted my coins last week. With no alts there's no way I can get enough for icebreaker before Sunday.

True statement. In fact, it's so useful that I plan to buy a 3rd one even though I have two so I can have one on each of my characters. It is easily the weapon I most often have to switch over, via the vault, from character to character

I have 65 strange coins but not enough glimmer to upgrade my older exotics. Awesome, right?

You can farm glimmer on the Mars mission, exclusion zone. Have a couple resupply codes before you start the mission. Near the beginning, when the big door opens run past all of the red health enemies. Yellow health bar enemies will drop, use Super to kill as many as you can, mop up the rest then run back to the red health guys to let them kill you. Rinse and repeat. Your super ought to recharge for every run. If not, maybe equip gear that recharges super energy faster.

It'll keep giving you codes for the extra glimmer, just make sure it's always active. Also you'll acquire a bunch of Network Keys over the course of the farming run. In about 30 or 40 minutes, I was about to get myself 20,000+ glimmer. If I had popped another code, I could have maxed it out.

AggieKatie,
If you got Thunderlord, you got the best machine gun in the game. Its is widely regarded as far superior than super good advice.

I would highly consider starting an Alt of the same class, grinding to 20, switching your high level gear over, run the weekly again and have enough coins.

Yes, it will take about 8 hours, but man, I tell you. This is IMO the most important exotic in the game. This gun will change the way you play and make your life easier. Ghorn can make things quicker as is flashy, but Icebreaker will never be put in the vault once you have it.

You wont regret it.

There are only two weapons in the game worth this amount of grind. Ghorn and Icebreaker.

i set the difficulty to the 1st "hard" mode. I think its 19 or so. makes it easier to kill them. you run right past the first drop ship full of red. head to the left out the door. super the first group of yellows, and rocket (or whatever) the second group. The whole process should take 1-1.5 mins. If you have 2 ppl, you could take out both groups simultaneously.

the key is ignoring the reds. yes, you will get glimmer for killing them. That will give you more glimmer per try, but not more glimmer per minute. going straight to the yellows and then dying gives you way more glimmer per minute, and makes the best use of your resupply codes.

Tbh, I would love to get duplicate exotic bounties at the same time. Complete both, shard on of the weapons, saves you effort later getting a exotic shard (which I wouldn't waste on SGA anyways!)

GAH. I got a husk of the pit, but I need an embalming core which requires crotas bane 3. Wish she had more bounties.

Did the nightfall for the first time last night and got nothing but energy. I still need a bunch more so I'm not too upset. It's such a departure from how my group usually goes into battle. Slowing down and thinking before running headfirst into a firefight was the only way we were able to finish.

I also went from having no exotic weapons this time last week, to having 3. Bad Juju, Gjallarhorn, and Ice Breaker. Plus Xur had Obsidian Mind for sale. Good week

Yesterday was officially Lootapoloza for me. I ran Nightfall and the 30 weekly on all 3 characters and then CE and VOG once each. I bought 2 more Ice Breakers so each of my characters would have one, an Obsidan Mind, a Glasshouse, had an Armamenterium drop, and 2 Gjallahorns drop (already had 1, then got 1 in Nightfall and Aethon dropped the other).

You must be sad because you thought the one Atheon dropped was only 300 and I had to spend glimmer and a shard on it. Cheer up, it was 331.

Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking. I was just happy to get Hunger of Crota last night and was able to grind out he coins in time to finally buy Ice Breaker.
