  • You get 2 shards for dismantling a fully upgraded exotic. If you want shards just buy multiples of the armours and dismantle them. You can buy 3 for the price of one legacy engram! It's not rocket science

  • Dude I think you get double the shards from dismantling old exotics - I'm not 100% but I deleted a couple that I have already in year two because I was making a new character and I swear when I looked I had like 13 or something- I know I didn't delete over 4 or 5. This was on the character with nothing on it because the other one has like 60. You might wanna check it out. Only the ones you have already got in yr. 2 though. I don't trust bungie . I don't care that it says on the wall I have every exotic gun from yr 1 until I get a yr 2 version I won't delete it

  • You get 2 if you had them fully upgraded.

  • Only get double shards if you have put enough xp on it to max it out.

  • Yeah I double checked this yesterday and disabled my thunderlord yr 1 and got 2 shards , eight weapon parts and something else maybe a note of light. So fact - you do get 2 exotic shards if it is maxed out - yr 1

  • No, dismantling a fully-upgraded Exotic [u]might[/u] produce two Exotic Shards.

  • Yr1 has given me two shards every time this past week and I have deleted 9 or 10 of them so that's pretty good odds- 100%

    They're expensive because they're a TRAP. How many people don't notice the " Legacy " part -and waste their S coins on this crap.

    [quote]They're expensive because they're a TRAP. How many people don't notice the " Legacy " part -and waste their S coins on this crap.[/quote] Dumb asses!!! Lmao... Xur shouldn't be having the shit!!! I believe alot of shit should've been changed in Taken Kings.. POE, Crota & Atheon should've been a bit upgraded, like Extreme Hard mode or something, so we can get year 2 shit from them, as for lower level players, can't play until they reach level 40!!! And they brought over a couple year 1 weapons & armor over to Taken King! Why not bring alot more... A year 2 Ice Breaker would've been nice! Hereafter? "Nobody" use that shit!!! Everybody is using 1000 yard stare with firefly!!! And another thing issssss... They should've made another hand cannon with arc, solar or void on it! And the last damn thing i gotta say! "Put the rest of the armor in the game".. I'm tired of seeing The "Crest of Chicken Pussy" and look, Xur selling it again!!! Damn... Smh!!! Everybody is hoping they gonna get the new Titan boots that gives him speed, or the rest of the armor, by grinding your ass's off! I believe they prolonging the shit til Christmas, then we'll see the rest, just to spread out the game, because they didn't add enough shit! People is already getting bored off the game, well most on my friends list! Hold up! What about the hunter helmet that you get from Phogoth? Haven't seen anybody with it! Like i said, they should've put all Year 1 weapons & Armor in the Taken King, but of course make them higher level, so we can have fun grinding for it, we'll be like,,,,, Yes' i got the No Land Beyond!!! Lmao.... Now that's one that people got mad getting... Lol.. Year 1 armor perks were better to me than this new shit! Like the Titan helmet that makes him stay still in the air for a moment!!! Why??? So he can get shot down... Smh.... On the real though! Everybody already got most of the shit from the Taken King!!! The only thing that made peeps happy, is that there is a Raid!!! Chop down the armor more so we can wear 2 exotics.. Gauntlets should just be sleeves, not including gloves! Grinding for some sparkly Michael Jackson gloves would've been cool! And when you melee someone, it'll say Beeat It! Beat It!!! Lol.. Naw jk.. But $40 for the Taken King to get juked, with it half ass on armor, and you'll get it on an update is bullshit! I figure, if i pay for something, i want all my shit, Shit!!! Anyways, my badd for leaving a long asssss comment bro! Just wanted to vent!!! But some of the shit needs to be done!!! And take that Legacy shit off Xur!!! Damn!!! Half ass Taken King!!!!! I'm Out Y'all..

  • Maybe if they were fully upgraded, but I just dismantled the two Lord of wolves, one queenbreaker, and a fourth horseman and only got one each.

  • Yeah I think you only get one, I've sharded armor and weapons that I have duplicates of and got 1 pretty much every time

  • Why not buy y2 exotics, then? And dismantle them for your shards?

  • i do, my point is that the legacy engrams (for useless exotics) are more expensive than the Yr2 stuff. It doesn't seem to make sense.

  • Possibly because... when you buy a Year 1 Legacy, you also unlock the Year 2 version (if such exists), making it 2 for 1 once you spend the Marks. Does that make more sense...? I don't know. If they were too cheap by comparison, everyone would buy them to unlock the Y2 versions by default...? I'm just speculating here.
