I would rather see Xur offer bounties to earn cores. Maybe a consumable to increase the drop rate of cores from enemies.

Agreed, a bounty system for cores would be the most balanced solution. Guaranteed avenues to the rewards you need, but still some work to earn them. Could even avoid xur altogether and have it tied to the spider since he already sells the things. Maybe have a couple of his wanted bounties every couple of days be harder than normal but guarantee a core drop on defeating the wanted boss, just one possibility

This. Flat out purchasing... not so sure we another avenue for that. Bake into playing the game, though - that would be cool

[quote]This. Flat out purchasing... not so sure we another avenue for that. Bake into playing the game, though - that would be cool[/quote] I'd be down for both methods. The bounties could be the "free" method to obtain them. They reward Cores in quantities of 5 & maybe 10 (for Hard Content like Nightfalls & etc) only cost glimmer if anything. BUT they should only last as long as he is up/available. So folks have 2 days. (Could revive Nightfalls & Heroics on weekends) Buying them should remain an option but like with Spider they should cost Legendary Shards but with none of that doubling in price bullshit.

I like where you’re going with that! Meaningful reward for a challenging activity. I’d participate. I might be the only one who doesn’t mind Spiders setup. 1 for 10, 2 for 30, I’ve even gone as high as 3 shards in one day, only because I wanted to test my comfort level. With 2,000+ shards, why not, right? I think it’s a decent mechanic to keep people coming back to the shore in the shadow of the Dreaming City.

This makes sense! Would increase your time in game, but worth doing bounties if in need of cores. Sounds like a win for bungie if it's not too hard from a design standpoint.

They could have revamped 3oC to do just that. Chance of obtaining Masterwork Cores from high level enemies for 4 hours.
-
They do. Its called Finest Matterweave.
-
Finest Matterweave works once and then you have to use another one. With 3oC it would drop multiple times within the 4 hours that 3oC is active.
-
But yes, what he said. A consumable for masterwork cores. FWIW in D1 3oCs were consumed after one drop.
-
Yeah but the drop rate of Matterweave is extremely rare, not really abundant enough to even warrant not going to Spider and it's only 1 and you have to fight bosses till one drops.
-
I agree, but have xur give bounties with bigger amount of MWC. But why not give Banshee daily bounties that reward MWC also?
-
I would love to see Banshee offer bounties for mod components. Those are in short supply as well.
-
I agree.
-
There is a consumable to increase drop rate
-
For mw cores? What consumable is that?
-
It's called finest matterweave. Can't recall how i got them. Would probably be best to do a google search, but i hope this points you in the right direction.
-
Finest matterweave. It stays on until it drops from defeating boss type enemies then it goes away. Kind of stupid you get it from dismantling gear. Should just give the core instead

Huh. Good to know. Thanks.
