Level 29 warlock.
I'd let him have most of the Destiny time off till recently when I decided he needed some lovin and I got on.
After playing with a 31 Titan striker primarily, it took some getting used to, but he's grown into quite a great guardian I can't think of deleting him. Which brings me to the snag I've just hit.
I was so busy leveling him up from the lower teen levels that I dismantled my warlock bond for vanguard. He's not even rank 2 yet.
So now I'm at the point where it's time to start evening out my stat boosters (I have too much strength, need intellect) so I go look that Ikora has the grieves I want to have ideally... I can't purchase them... with 185 vanguard marks... because I'm not rank 2 yet.
Normally? I'd just go get them from FWC and be done, but I need those specific for my set.
I cannot purchase any vanguard warlock bonds though.
This is just an fyi post Bungie. I'm currently laughing at the misfortune that someone mistook that. lol... how can you make warlock bonds or ANY class item for that matter require a reputation level to purchase? It's free advertising for that faction, whichever it may be... they would be HAPPY to give them away for glimmer (or the Speaker motes of light)..
Feel free to have a conversation if you want. I'm literally sitting here thinking... how did someone overlook this... opps? I'm sorry? Well... shit happens I guess...

You don't need any bonds to level up your vanguard or crucible, in fact you don't even have to wear one. It's not like the factions where you need to wear the faction's class item to level it up.
