Hey guys! Iron Banner is here, and if you want to buy Saladin's goods, you're going to need to farm some glimmer if you want it quick.
I'd like to use this post as a reference point for myself, and for other people as well.
I'm aware of several of the methods, but when Iron Banner is so limited, and it's gear so expensive...we'd all like to know the best way to earn glimmer quickly.

The new hive strike with glimmer items is pretty awesome

I used to run the exclusion zone, but the below method is easier and you usually get a lot of bounties out of the way Siege of the warmind on level 30. Burn black wax idol. Go to the first part, kill everything up to the room with the knight before Rasputin. Then jump off the bridge and repeat. It's all trash with a few yellows, but the volume is very high. It's faster than the exclusion zone, try it if you don't believe me.

"We've waken the Hives" most listened phrase in 2014.
-
Too bad the new Mars strike wont be on the heroic playlist to solo because the middle part where you fight a lot of ultra Vex looks like a good spot to farm, die and repeat.
-
EXCLUSION ZONE LVL22 i think you get about 800 glimmer time but you need resupply codes on
-
I would typically use the first mission on the moon with a wax idol and wake the hive, but there aren't a ton of elites to get the big buck$. I typically don't farm with a team, so strikes are out for me (do you really make considerably more glimmer when in a fireteam?). Exclusion zone is pretty good, but there's a lot of trash to get through (including those annoying shields) before you can get to the elites, but they 'ARE' pretty plentiful on heroic and pretty easy to pop off headshots with. I've heard the gatekeeper is top notch, but I haven't tried that yet. pain to find somebody with the checkpoint. Does it have to be on hard mode?

This one. Over 4000 glimmer every ten minutes with the glimmer boost on. Destiny Mars Glimmer/chest/bounty farming run.: http://youtu.be/V_Asd0LEKcM

ROC Strikes, using whatever glimmer enhancement I need. Probably in the minority here, but I prefer to just run strikes and pick up engrams and rewards etc while im earning, its slower than other methods but its nowhere near as boring!
-
Strike playlist with glimmer mods, it might not be the most effective but I like it.
-
Patrol on Earth, take a left, go down the stairs, once at the bottom, take a right into the room with 3 yellow Hive (2 acolytes, 1 knight). Make your way to opposite stairs, kill all Fallen, swoop back around to where you first went down the stairs. Yellow guys will be respawned by the time you get back over. Rinse, repeat. (house banners (aka: 200 glimmer a pop) drop almost every other cycle.
-
First mission of moon (forgot name) and wax idols.
-
Nexus Heroic strike Level 22 with ether seeds Kill all enemies to last servitor then wipe, gets you 600+ glimmer every time
-
Exclusion Zone heroic Pop resupply codes
-
VoG Gatekeeper
-
Gatekeeper with blue polyphage is the best Exclusion zone with resupply codes would be next Hard mode siege of warmind is decent

Bump. Let's get this goin
