All 3 characters to have the same weapon each (e.g Icebreaker) or swap it around?

How do you guys do it? I can see the pros and cons for each. Pro of having 3 of each: no need to swap. Cons: maxing out the 3 will take 3 times longer Pro of having one and swapping: you level up the gun faster since you are able to concentrate all your materials into that one gun Cons: you need to swap it around (inconvenience) What are your thoughts?

  • Ya I found that weapon swapping was taking a lot of time so I have 1 for each character for the truly good exotics (ghorn, mytho, IB) and VOG weapons. Still working on getting 3 of each Crota weapon. I mostly raid w/ randoms from the forums so the patience needed to swap between 3 runs isn't always there and can screw you sometimes.

    • I have 7? weapons that I swap between each. Partly RNG based, partly can't be bothered max out multiples of the same gun. If I get the same gun twice il generally look at perks, decide which is better for me and destroy the other. Levelling guns takes quite a bit longer than armour so it's just not worth my time when I can just swap a gun I really like between them (obviously raid/exotic guns don't count as they have the same rolls every time)

    • One for each. What else do you honestly have to do after the raids? I do it with guns like IB and exotic/raid armor. Some raid guns also. Only the best though. Space is at a premium afterall.

    • Only 1 of each, besides the 2 ghorn's... Waste of vault space

    • I have one for each. Maxed all my Ice Breakers within a week. I'm too lazy to swap them in the Vaults.

    • Yeah as you keep playing 3 of each is best. You get tired of swapping and if your under a time constraint like joining a group to run crota hard and get back to them just to find out the have 6 already will piss you off!

      • A vault in the ship would give us more time to get stuff done that's for sure

      • After a few weeks of swapping IB back n forth, logging in with the one that didnt have it, having to switch characters drop it in vault, switch back, etc etc... easier to buy a 2nd one. Glad Xur sold it again.

        • I've been swapping it around for a long time now. It isn't a big deal as I usually start and finish in the tower every time I play. You just have to store it every day when you finish playing. I do plan on buying two more tonight though. That's only because I have aLOT of strange coins and nothing to spend them on.

        • Swappings too tedious. I keep an IB, P&T, Suros, Thunderlord and Mida on each of my characters.

        • I try to get multiples so I don't have to juggle different stuff out of my vault to make room only to then switch characters, go to the tower and get the gun I want, and then finally start playing.

        • I've started levelling HAWKMOON Gjallahorn and some PVP weapons on each character due to annoyance of vault space shortage and pain of switching

        • Put everything in your vault. Just make sure to go to the tower before you start playing and before you get off to grab your stuff.

        • Depends on what the weapon is and how much you love it. I LOVE fatebringer, Icebreaker and Gjallarhorn, so as such I have one maxed on each character (almost). Only thing I'm missing now is a third maxed fatebringer. Already have 3 max Gjallys, and soon 3 maxed IBs. No its not at all a problem to drop off items in the vault to share, but when those are the 3 weapons you primarily run to tower to switch it makes switching characters so much easier knowing each char has at least your standard 3 on them at all times. Now If I could just get a FEW more LDR 5001's to drop for my 2nd and 3rd characters I'd be even happier. Currently I have a void, arc, and solar LDR but only one of each. Really I just want another few with field scout for 6 round sniper mags on LDR.

        • Buy three! I bought two last time and upgraded one because I earned it or so people say. It is worth it

        • I swap 16 guns every time I switch characters. 4 stay in the vault permanently, others stay on separate characters.
