My brother and I play and play and play, but have the hardest time receiving ascendant shards... I know you can't just farm them like materials. We do the daily and weekly and I might luckily receive one. I'm slowly getting bored because I'm just stuck at level 27(him and I both.) I can upgrade my armor, only if I had those dang shards! Then, I could raid with a little more ease or attempt the hard mode.
Any Ideas on how to get ascendant shards?

This is what I do. 1. I dont wear faction item 2. get all crucible marks and vanguard marks for the week - use those marks to buy legendary armor - dismantle the items and you get two to three each. 3. complete normal VoG for the week - you get a lot depending on luck - you get like 6 on bad luck 4. weekly nightfall - again depending on luck 5. tiger strikes over and over until you fill your inventory full of blues - maye you get a legendary from those blues from decoding - if you do get legendary, dismantle. 6. Public event Gold Tier -one for each day -depends on luck(sometimes you get energy) p.s. legendary weapons give ascendant energy not shards. thats all I know.
