Grimoire Issues

I'm kind of a completionist, and I've noticed a couple of problems with some unattainable Grimoire cards (some of which have workaround solutions, but which need to be fixed). I've already made sure I picked up all the Dead Ghosts for their Grimoire cards, including the bugged ones that were recently fixed. This list is for the cards that are still broken (as of Jan 27). I thought I'd just leave these here and see if @BNGHelp1 could reply with any word on if these are known problems and if they're getting fixed. 1) [b]Guardian class completions (ie: Guardian > Classes > Titan) aren't giving out Grimoire points[/b] -- it's a little thing, but for each class, completing the activities like Crucible kills as a Titan / Titans Killed in Crucible don't give out the 5 pts per activity completion it claims to reward (even though it seems to still be recording kills and suchnot just fine. 2) [b]Enemies > Fallen > House of Wolves is only attainable by watching the first cutscene at the Reef, but the cutscene isn't available if you've already been through it.[/b] This shouldn't have been an issue if the card wasn't bugged at launch (because you have to go through the story anyway), but now we're stuck because we can't unlock the cutscene to get the now-fixed Grimoire card. In the story playthrough, the option to go to the Reef comes right after completing the first mission on Venus. Going there triggers the first Reef cutscene, where the House of Wolves Card is apparently handed out (it was bugged early into the game's release and was only recently patched). Problem is, if you already played through the story missions, re-playing the first mission on Venus [b]doesn't[/b] unlock the Reef again. So for someone like me (who fully leveled 3 characters almost immediately after launch), you have to resort to drastic measures. [b][i]Known work-arounds: [/i][/b] [b]a) Create a new character and play through the story missions until you reach the Reef cutscene.[/b] If you only have 1 or 2 characters, it isn't that big of a deal. But if you have the full 3 characters already leveled, it means scrapping one, hoping you have enough Vault Space to stash the extra gear and weapons that character is carrying, and then spending the time to re-level your new character (and BOTH SUBCLASSES) [b]b) Help someone else level a new character.[/b] Make them fireteam leader and walk them through their first time going to Venus and the first trip to the Reef. They'll unlock access to the Reef via normal story progression, and as long as you're with them for the ride, you should also receive the card. 3) [b]Enemies > Cabal > Siege Dancers card only drops for completing the PlayStation-exclusive Dust Palace strike on Mars.[/b] Unfortunately for all of us here on Xbox, that means the card likely won't become available until the PS content opens up to us. Why Bungie would include a card for console-exclusive content is beyond me. Everybody should be able to complete 100% of the Grimoire, without needing to wait on exclusive content later being released to everyone. The Xbox completionists thank you for your consideration (*sarcasm). 4) [b]Places > Mercury > Mercury card is not unlocked.[/b] Not sure what the issue is here, (if it's tied to playing the Mercury map in Crucible??) but one way or another, I've tried everything I can think of, and the card just isn't available. (Note: I've gotten the cards for The Asteroid Belt, Jupiter, and Saturn (other non-visit-able planets) just fine -- there seems to just be some issue with Mercury). 5) [b]Activites > Crucible Playlists > Doubles doesn't record wins.[/b] Apparently, the Grimoire is treating Doubles wins as Skirmish wins instead. Needs to be fixed so that the card records wins in the right category. 6) [b]Activities > Crucible Playlists > Combined Arms card is still not available,[/b] so wins in Combined Arms aren't counting towards completing anything. Hope this list helps clarify some things, and as a completionist, I'm hoping these can be fixed soon so I can keep racking up my Grimoire score. Thanks again Bungie :)

    Also, for me the [b]Guardian > Sub-Classes > Guardian Abilities[/b] card is glitched. I have 3 32 characters of each class with both their respective subclasses fully levelled, and still nothing... I heard it has been fixed recently (I've even seen people with it), but I really don't feel like deleting one of my 32's so I can create/change sub-class/delete 3x to get the card (and then recreate & re-fully-level my deleted char)
