make them purchasable. increment reputation level requirements like Eris (5, 10, 15, for example), charge 200 vanguard and 200 crucible marks each.
edit: the 5/10/15 scale was just an example (see how it says "for example"?). obviously you would want higher ranks to validate your commitment to a faction and also show off how much you've been grinding. right now, you can get one at rank 6 because you got lucky. but if you had to get to rank 50 [b]to be eligible to buy one[/b], you'd instantly show off how much reputation you earned for a faction simply by having that shader.
edit: combined lvl 55 i finally got the hanged man... now i can actually represent Dead Orbit as if i'd been wearing their faction class armor for hundreds of hours and now pledged to them since TTK! #stilldoesntmakesense

2 Repliesno it would get rid of the point of even having a faction rank

I still cant figure out why custom shaders isn't a thing here.

4 RepliesThis is a terrible idea I grind my ass off for these shaders if people could buy them id stop play Destiny.

3 RepliesEdited by TRDoug: 8/9/2015 7:29:13 PMShaders in TTK will be stored at Eva Levante. Every shader we've ever gotten will be unlocked in her inventory and the ones we don't have will also be there with a hint at how to get it. They've said that they're leaving it less to RNG and more to us completing certain tasks to obtain things. They've also said RNG will be more geared to the class and not just a shot in the dark for anything Some changes are kinda exciting Sucks that there's new ships on the way though, I want the old ones! What they should do is when something is replaced allow us to buy the old stuff from the respective vendor

4 RepliesWhat about the people that have grinded to levels of 50+ with there faction to get everything. I say no, Keep them the same just raise the rng in the loot table for faction packages
-
6 RepliesJust stop, seriously. The whole point is how hard they are to get to drop. Its like people WANT this game to be worthless or something.
-
I'd agree. Just would have to be higher than 5,10, and 15. That's barely anything
-
I'm level 76 in DO and have 3 shaders (missing hanged man and the ship). I agree they should be purchasable based on faction rank level...should have to achieve considerable rank before they are sold though to keep them meaningful.

I don't know, I kinda like rng http://youtu.be/nYy4qjRROx http://youtu.be/_XBegwpyub4 It's quite wonderful.

2 RepliesIv gotton 4 different shaders so far. 1 from each faction Guess im lucky. Got bittersteel and revenent not even level 30 Do.
-
Bump. This needs to be trending....it may well already be addressed in TTK, but still..
-
Lord Saladin, Eris Morn and Petra Venj sell shaders at a predetermined level. They're simply cosmetic, and allow players to show dedication to said factions. Putting shaders up for purchase after having achieved a certain level or requiring to do a specific task to unlock these shaders might make the factions relevant again.

Rank 57 DO, not a single shader or ship yet. Game is short on defined goals and long on hoping to get lucky.
-
Should be able to purchase, or they unlock every five ranks. As it stands, the drop rate is ridiculous and simply gives you what you already have, or motes and coins.

Bump! I want 2 more revenant shaders

3 RepliesWhile I want some I don't agree with this. I want to get it in a drop from a package. All of the faction shaders except FWC and get them from packages
-
3 RepliesI have been saying the same thing. Bungie mentioned that they are changing the way faction items and emblems work in TTK.
-
Only if... -a certain rank -not all the shaders are available to be purchased
-
15 RepliesNo. Tired of grinding to get stuff and then people want it given to them. Grind like the rest of us have. What lvl are you to want this?
