What the -BLAM- is glimmer?
why do we want it and why are the Fallen mining it?
-
It’s what we are made of and what engrams are made of
-
In the game, it’s just currency, but lore says that it could be a power source among other uses.
-
Programable matter and currency.

I don't know what it is, but apparently [url=https://gameclipscontent-d2007.xboxlive.com/xuid-2710201918632103-private/edd00bc6-5fce-4288-9f3e-5f565b3abbae.MP4?sv=2015-12-11&sr=b&si=DefaultAccess&sig=bscEIO2jd40gwSABXGz04DJr8F%2BMEjZHL38521Gxpgs%3D&__gda__=1524206536_8fbe7fc0a889b9eed80321f17b27ce86]it's bouncy[/url].

Destiny 1 Grimoire Card, so you wouldn't know without digging through some third party sources anymore. Glimmer is a type of special programmable quasi-matter. You can literally program it to be any material in any shape you desire.

It serves as a source of fuel and currency I believe

13 RepliesAfter California divided itself into 3 independent states, one of the new mini states moved to converting its over abundant garbage problem and open boarder immigration policy into a form of soylent green generation after an attempt to enact socialist policies tanked its economy. Because the state had threatened to leave the union before this point, they were receiving no aid from an unsympathetic US federal government. This soylent green was called "Sparkle" as not to offend anyone. Years later, some researchers came across the ruins of the failed state and became inspired by the Sparkle. They decided to use a technology based compound that could reassemble itself into downloaded structures rather than food made from garbage and people who weren't politically correct. This material was named "Glimmer" as reference to the mistakes of the past which must never be repeated.

The Fallen want it because it’s shiny, and we like it’s shape. It’s also very, very pretty when you have piles of it.
-
Well my memory is tad bit foggy, and so let me go and look at the Grimoire entry on Glimmer and...... And... ...... Oh shit - nevermind.

1 ReplyAlso, I'm probably remembering this wrong so go ahead and flame, but in D1 wasn't it implied that's where the ammo that enemies drop comes from? Your ghost transmutes glimmer into ammo? Programmable matter. Maybe?

1 ReplyYou're joking, right?

glimmer is a fuel for our eye candy during load screens..... btw glimmer is terrible name for the main currencey.
-
Why is there a huge pile just sitting there and we get almost none of it, Devrim steals all of it.
-
Glimmer is programmable matter. In the future you can fabricate anything and that’s its fuel/currency. Engrams are broken information/matter/colorful glimmer chunks that must be reassembled to achieve its true form.
-
It's a form of programmable matter, it can be used to make armor and weapon repairs and upgrades. It's used as currency in the City, it is a wad of cash that can fix your car.

Why are bottle caps currency in Fallout?

12 RepliesIts folklore.

Glimmer is bit coin.

A made up material for a made up purpose in a made up world. The made up aliens mine it for made up reasons in made up areas, to give you made up reasons to shoot said aliens and steal said made up material.

Currency. Obviously.

4 RepliesJust go read the grimoire card for it. It's in the companion app for a reason. [spoiler]Oh, wait...[/spoiler]
