Everything I currently own I got through strikes, heroics, crucible, bounties and faction rep. Unfortunately I am at that place in my progression where I need ascendant shards to level my light. As I have already completed all the strikes and dailies, nor have the patience to sit through countless hours of crucible hoping something drops that I can use, I farm to get legendary gear to break it down. Does that make me less of a gamer that enjoys this game less than you? *Edit* I would like to say that I did not begin to farm until last night, already having reached 27.
