Should I be saving my engrams?
So with the update due at some point in the hopeful near future I wanted to see what your thoughts were on hoarding engrams to be decrypted once the update has taken place?
I have about 50 engrams saved up but don't know if I'm wasting my time or not due to them possibly being time gated ?
What are you doing ?
Thanks guys

13 RepliesNo point. The moment you get the exotic engram is the moment its contents are decided. The only part that can be altered prior to decryption is light level. For instance, if my titan picks up an exotic arm engram. Nothing I do will change it from becoming that 30th immolation fist that I do not need. The only thing I can do to lessen the pain is to equip my highest armor before decrypting in order to get a guaranteed 310 immolation fist.

Save em, that's how I got plan c and jade rabbit. After the last new exotic update

How do you have the storage space? Am I a freaking hoarder?? Wait, is hoarding guns bad thing??
-
You are wasting your time. None of those will decrypt into the new gear. Do people ever learn?
-
Yes there's nothing else to do

1 ReplyYou will only get pre update gear. The engrams don't update

Depends if it is a dlc or update we getting, if it is a dlc u won't get new stuff but if it is just an update then there is a chance u could get new stuff,, if u don't need anything don't see any harm keeping them at least u rank up cryptarc for new stuff

I was gonna but I figured wheres the fun? I decrypted like 50 legendary and exotic engrams yesterday.

1 ReplyI wouldn't. There's no fun in having all the new exotics pop up on your screen within 3 minutes. Where's the hunt, guardian?

If you've already got 50 might as well hold on to em but there's absolutely no need to go higher than that
-
I don't know this for sure but I've once heard if the engram drops in that specific time frame it's going to be a drop from THAT time period of what's out no matter when you decode it... Maybe someone else can confirm...
-
Only reason I would say no, is that if you get everything first day through saved engrams. You won't have any reward screen to get excited about.

Save them these new exotics look cool
