I don't find this as a problem, knowing that the game when it releases will give you more glimmer at higher leveled places. Not to mention that the items you dismantle will provide a lot more than what you get out of chests (unless there was a item in it for you to dismantle it!). If someone needs glimmer, they go out and get glimmer. What is the shame in that? How else would you get materials in WoW, go around and follow the designated trail of ore to mine the fastest. In Destiny's case, go around and search for designated areas where the chest appears.

Yes, but I think there is a problem with treating cash as a mineable resource. It could easily break the economy. Plus it is a resource that everybody needs so there will be lot of conflict.

If there was even a economy value in the game, then yes, it would but because there isn't even a way to trade with other players other than yourself to another character, glimmer and items are not a problem at all. Again, I do not see this as a problem. Gotta think about how this would absolutely affect other players.

The problem is that Bungie will set the price on upgrade etc based on the expected income of players. So it will either be too cheap for farmers, or too expensive for non- farmers. Based on memory, in skyfall I could wipe three groups of mobs and earn maybe 25-50 in glimmer and junk. Then I could do a 30 second sweep of the chest spawns and get on average two chests, lets say 250-300 glimmer. That seems broken to me. Even more so as you didnt actually have to kill the mobs to get to the spawns.
