Hey all, hopefully a helpful 'heads up' to those Guardians out there (like me!) who are perpetually stuck on virtually zero weapon parts - you can actually get them for Glimmer!
But how? I hear you cry - Well my friends, it's easy - just buy any Exotic weapon you already unlocked! Cost = 2,500 Glimmer and a Shard, but you get the shard back, along with a few weapon parts as well, when you dismantle it.
Caveat - the exchange rate is pretty lousy, costing 2,500 for just 3 or 4 Weapon Parts, but for those situations where you are just a few short of getting that last upgrade you want/need, then it could be a God send (I.e. just before a Raid run or a Trials match etc) and for when you just can't face another hour of grinding the Court to get the last few you need :)
And hey, what else are we going to spend Glimmer on anyway? ;)
So there we go, it's expensive, and less than ideal, but it IS possible to buy Weapon Parts for Glimmer.
Hope it helps Guardians!
Edit 1 - Some great ideas all, will update the main post as soon as I get chance (probably at home etc) to include all the helpful advice too! Thanks all who contributed!
Edit 2 - Compulsory 'we are trending' edit ;)
Edit 3 - WE HAVE BEEN HEARD lol As of the November update, we can apparently buy Weapon Parts from the Gunsmith!
Hopefully this thread helped a few people along the way though, and big thanks to all that contributed to the knowledge base here :)
I do 15 gunsmith orders per week - depending upon whether I want to keep any of them, that's up to 75 parts and 75 legendary marks a week.
The downside is that the bill comes to 37,500 glimmer :-/
