You can get Weapon Parts for Glimmer!

Hey all, hopefully a helpful 'heads up' to those Guardians out there (like me!) who are perpetually stuck on virtually zero weapon parts - you can actually get them for Glimmer! But how? I hear you cry - Well my friends, it's easy - just buy any Exotic weapon you already unlocked! Cost = 2,500 Glimmer and a Shard, but you get the shard back, along with a few weapon parts as well, when you dismantle it. Caveat - the exchange rate is pretty lousy, costing 2,500 for just 3 or 4 Weapon Parts, but for those situations where you are just a few short of getting that last upgrade you want/need, then it could be a God send (I.e. just before a Raid run or a Trials match etc) and for when you just can't face another hour of grinding the Court to get the last few you need :) And hey, what else are we going to spend Glimmer on anyway? ;) So there we go, it's expensive, and less than ideal, but it IS possible to buy Weapon Parts for Glimmer. Hope it helps Guardians! Edit 1 - Some great ideas all, will update the main post as soon as I get chance (probably at home etc) to include all the helpful advice too! Thanks all who contributed! Edit 2 - Compulsory 'we are trending' edit ;) Edit 3 - WE HAVE BEEN HEARD lol As of the November update, we can apparently buy Weapon Parts from the Gunsmith! Hopefully this thread helped a few people along the way though, and big thanks to all that contributed to the knowledge base here :)

  • Run strikes. About 12 consecutive strikes should get you a good amount. Or simply keep grinding. Court of Oryx, PvP, strikes. This is what the game is about. How do you think people have over 500 weapons parts? Grinding. If you don't have the luxury of grinding, then quite simply the game is not for you. I don't think destiny is kind to casual players.
