Hello guardians and my new Christmas-noob-guardians, I am writing this post to help you level up your exotics that you get during your time in destiny. In less than 30 minutes, I can show you how to your weapon to the max level as fast as possible while avoiding the absolute grind that is destiny. [b]A DESTINY'S WEAPON/ARMOR LEVELING GUIDE[/b] [u][b][i]First[/i][/b][/u] Complete all bounties on all your characters but [b][i]DO NOT TURN THEM IN[/i][/b]. Fill up your inventory with completed bounties and let them sit there till later. [u][b][i]Second[/i][/b][/u] [b][i]BUY TELEMETRY'S FROM XUR!!! [/i][/b]. He comes on the weekends and sells this item for strange coins (something that you can get by doing the weekly heroic, decoding engrams, or doing public events) This consumable boosts the amount of EXP that you get when leveling up your weapon. So make sure to grab about 10 of them. I think he sells 5 for 1 coin or something like that. [b][i][u]Third: 2 parts![/u] [/i][/b] This is the most important step to get something to the max level as fast as possible. [b][i]DO THE NIGHTFALL STRIKE[/i][/b]. This event boosts all EXP gains on your character for one week and also gives you legendary, ascendant, and exotic loot drops. [b]WHEN THE NIGHTFALL IS JUST ABOUT OVER, USE A TELEMETRY!!![/b]. The experience boost that you get from the nightfall and telemetry is insane! PS: don't forget to actually equip what you want to level up. Or you just wasted a huge exp boost on the wrong thing. PSS: [b][i]you can use more than one weapon telemetry at once[/i][/b]. For example, I was using a scout rifle, fusion rifle, and rocket telemetry all at the same time. [u][b][i]Fourth[/i][/b][/u] [b][i] GO TO THE TOWER AND TURN IN ALLTHE BOUNTIES! [/i][/b]. If done correctly all this EXP will take you up a couple of upgrade nodes. Turning in all these bounties at once will also grant you the chance at an exotic bounty! [b][i][u]Fifth (optional)[/u] [/i][/b] [b][i]Run the daily or weekly heroic.[/i][/b] if you can do it quick, run these missions. You have 30ish minutes to do so. If you are not skilled enough or struggling with the missions, skip this step or run out your time with vanguard/crucible. [b][i][u]Sixth[/u][/i][/b] [b][i]TRANSFER ALL THE WEAPONS AND TELEMETRIES INTO THE VAULT AT THE TOWER[/i][/b] so that you can repeat this with another character. Rinse and repeat till you run out of bounties/characters. [b][i][u]My Story[/u][/i][/b] By doing this process today, I took a non- upgraded gjallahorn, vision of confluence and promethian foil up to the the last upgrade tree in a matter of minutes! Also, by turning in these bounties, I got 3 exotic bounties! 1 for each of my characters! I feel like no one is utilizing this item correctly. [b][u]GET TO IT!!! [/u][/b]
