I saw an older thread and was surprised that no one replied. I believe collecting these items is the BEST way to save glimmer for events such as the Iron Banner, heavy ammo syntheses (yes, I'd rather spend glimmer than strange coins on synths).
I've thus far saved 817 Axiomatic Beads, equating to 163,400 glimmer. I did not cash any in last Iron Banner, and still managed to spend over 100k (3 Spears, 3 Lashes, 2 sets of Chest armour and helm for the Titan, Goldspiral, sash etc). It's also interesting to point out that the beads do NOT stack up, and thus take only ONE space in the vault. We can become rich, Guardians :D
-
Around 50 of each! It's like you have a mini atm in there lol
-
What's the best way to farm them?
-
I have 48 all together. 30 of those are network keys.
-
1200+
-
Thanks for this. I always cash these in as soon as I get them. I'll start collecting them from now on. Ed
-
just under 200 of each or there about. Started collecting them after spending close to 40k glimmer on Iron banner a few months ago and almost wanting to slit my wrists from grinding Exclusion Zone for hours on end.
-
First. Armor. And around 300+ sounds about right
-
11 Banners 7 aoxomic beads 4 mars ones 6 dont remember the name
-
I cashed a lot of mine from the last IB. Have to start saving up again.
-
Those beads did you farm them from the archon priest strike?
-
Edited by Dnns84: 5/13/2015 9:34:00 AMI only started saving them 2-3 weeks ago and got 130 combined. But I also have nearly 3000 asc/rad shards/energy. That will also add up to a lot of glimmer if I need it
-
Edited by Roman: 5/13/2015 9:33:00 AMomg 800+? I have about 100 banners and another 100 beads, around 80 hive things, 30 or so cabal but I haven't been saving them like I should be, only started saving them at the beginning of the April usually these don't drop for me, just glmer making items - like wax idols and ether seeds I do have 400 ascendant energies and over 800 shards, 100+ of each of Crota materials (this is with all raid weapons and armors maxed out already), probably 60 exotic shards (with every exotic on Xbox one already maxed out and multiples of Gjallarhorn and Thunderlord), over 300 of motes of light, more then 400 of each material (like relic iron, spinimetal, etc) - a boat load of sapphire wire and weapon parts - over 3k each about 30 vanguard commodations and at least 60 crucible ones, and in each character, vanguard and supported faction will be ready to level up - on my main - every faction in the game will be ready to level up I'm ready to max out all exotics and more on day 1 lol
-
Guess what? Those 414 shards you have can be converted to 103,500 additional glimmer, lol. No max player needs to farm for anything now (after 1.2.0.1 that is).
-
Welp i got 367 shards to turn into glimmer so thats 91,750 got 362 energies that i dont see myself using after HoW and upgrading the last few legendaries i do have so we'll say i'll b at 300 so 60k there got 250 radiant shards and no use for them as i have all 3 with full crota gear so if that goes for the same price so 50k i have 150 radiant enrergy but still need to obtain/lvl 2 crota weapons so we'll say 100 get converted to 20k So over all useless material that i can convert racks to 221,750 glimmer :) im satisfied though i would love to just horde items like you for even more cash! in all honesty though even though i can horde, just raising the glimmer cap to a ridiculous number like 9,999,999 would free up a lot of room and seems relatively easy on bungies part <.<
-
What about daily reward packages from patrols?
-
0 (Zero)...
-
Zero. No need now that our shards + energies turn into $$&
-
1017 banner things
-
None...I always cash them in when I go to the cryptarch cause they're the first things you can do there... I think I'll start saving the codices and network keys I get...
-
I had over 16,000 glimmer worth of items but cashed em in this last iron banner...went on a spree!!!!!
-
You clearly either deeply love the Vex or deeply hate them. Lol
-
Nah, I just farm beads at the local por.....wait what kind of beads do you mean?
-
Immediately Googled plural of codex. I'm more impressed that you have the correct word.
-
Used them all on iron banner
-
This is genius! I was about to rip on you like "why wouldn't you be cashing them in?!" Never thought of it as a way to horde money. Well done.
-
I had 30,000 glimmer worth before IB, now down to about 8,000. I'll be saving them all again ready for HoW as well as being able to turn some unwanted ascendant materials into 250 glimmer each too.
