Would you like to buy blue or purple engrams from the Cryptarch?

Yes

4060

No

585

Maybe

431

As it is right now, the best engram you can buy from the Cryptarch is a green uncommon one. Why can't we buy blue rare engrams and maybe an occasional purple legendary? Maybe if you hit level 15 or 20 with the Cryptarch, you could buy a blue rare engram and at level 25 or 30, have one day a week or so the Cryptarch would sell a purple legendary engram. It is just an idea. It would make him more useful outside of just decoding our engrams all the time. Bump if you agree and let me know what you think. No trolls please. Edit: Naturally, the legendary engrams would have to be kinda expensive and you couldn't buy a bunch of them at a time. I believe the green uncommon engrams are about 250 glimmer. Maybe the blue rare engrams could cost 1000 glimmer and the legendary ones could cost around 10,000 glimmer? I know Bungie likes us to keep grinding and this would definitely encourage most of the Destiny community to grind extra for those engrams. Edit #2- I just got off Destiny and found that the green uncommon engram is 450 so I was wrong. What a waste! Anyways, thanks for all the support so far. Let's keep it coming! Edit #3- I have seen a couple of good ideas for the other vendors as well. If you guys have any ideas for other vendors or improvements to my idea with the Cryptarch, post your ideas! Thanks again for the support! Maybe Bungie will see this and consider some of these ideas for a future update! Bump so they can see this! Final Edit- Wow! I wasn't expecting this amount of feedback on this topic! You guys have some great ideas! Good to see the Destiny community can still talk about ideas for the game without constant trolling. Maybe Bungie can be as creative when it comes to improving the vendors at the tower. Hopefully we can keep this trending and they can see some of these great ideas and use some of them. Thanks again for the support guys! Keep it real Guardians!

    My idea based on this: [i]The Exchanger[/i] You could find the exchanger in the bar by dead orbit. She would exchange marks and engrams for other stuff. A example inventory: 100 vanguard marks= 100 crucible marks 100 crucible marks= 100 vanguard marks 30 strange coins= 1 exotic engram 20 strange coins= a random legendary ship 10 strange coins= a random legendary shader 5 strange coins= a random legendary mark/ 5 motes of light= 1 strange coin bond/cloak 30 Ascendant mats= 1 exotic engram 10 green items= 1 blue engrams 10 blue items= 1 legendary engrams 15 legendary items= 1 exotic engram [i]* By items I mean anything of that tier of rarity[/i] When you exchange 10 blues for a legendary, for example, you can choose what type of engram you want, like primary or chest plate. The same with all engram tiers Edit1: You cannot exchange sparrows for engrams. Let me just clear that up right now Edit2: removed raid engrams after so great constructive criticism.
