Okay, so far my destiny exp in the April update has been great; i got the zen meteor when the update dropped and got more and more exotics through 3oC but for the the past few weeks I've been running low on shards and i can't dismantle the exotics i have because i still use them unless i get one the 3oC and it's a lower light then i get a shard but it gets immediately used. So, in my opinion i think xur selling the exotic shards is a good plus why the hell do we need to buy motes of light from him in the first place if we could easily level up and get 5 of them.

Agreed

Just buy a piece of armour from Xur and shard it.

No. Exotics drop too frequently to ever run out

Here's a suggestion if you have the Glimmer: Buy a heavy weapon booster, apply. Equip exotic heavy, use 6 MoL. Dismantle for shard and re-buy.

Dupe shards from the kiosk bro. Costs 2500 glimmer and 3-4 motes of light

What are you using shards on so much that you keep running out? Are you upgrading things you can get as drops? Just use them to upgrade the gear that can't drop (spindle, malice, swords etc.). Everything else will drop from 3oC or post match rewards at higher light levels. No need to waste resources on leveling up a bad juju when it can be your next drop.

I've got 67 shards sooo

I know everyone says do the kiosk thing but to me that sounds stupid as hell buying a gun to level up just to get two shards, it might be effective but sounds idiotic if you think about what you're doing.

Edited by Destroydacre: 5/31/2016 2:19:42 AMI agree, I'm really not sure why bungie stopped having Xur sell shards (yes increase grind etc). But as others have stated, the best way to get some shards quickly is the exotic weapon kiosk. Buy any heavy (costs 1 shard + 2.5k glimmer) buy a heavy weapon telemetry from banshee and activate it, equip the heavy you just bought and level it up with motes (takes 6 with the telemetry I believe). Then break it down for 2 exotic shards and a net of +1.
