Materials needed: 1 exotic shard Glimmer Motes of light Heavy/primary/special telemetry(optional) Many people seem to be running dry on exotic shards so I decided to post this method I use to get my shards. This process involves purchasing an exotic of your choice from the kiosk in the vanguard room for one exotic shard and some glimmer. Then level it up fully with motes of light. A telemetry saves you some motes. Then when you fully level the exotic (don't purchase the upgrades) dismantle it for two exotic shards. So basically you gain a one shard profit every time. Hopefully this helps some players out. Feel free to ask any questions if you don't fully understand.
