If you have lots of cores don't buy prisms from the special orders section, buy them from the material exchange one. They basically cost 310 LS (10 cores + 10k Glimmer) this way as opposed to 400 LS via Special Orders and you can buy as many as you want. If you're low on cores you can be buying the 5 cores per day and exchange LS to glimmer so that's 1 prism per 2 days for 310 LS total.

I immediately went and bought like 500 raid banners when the announcement originally dropped. I've since spent like 4k shards on focusing, Glimmer, crafting (craftening flushed my shard & core supplies down the drain) etc. Very annoyed that shards are being depreciated, when enhancement cores are so much harder to obtain. Shards are the perfect currency for this game imo.

I'm not sure if I wanna sit around converting all mine, but I feel I must regardless... Got 317k shards to convert. Bright side is Phantasmal Fragments can be put in vault, and I can store up to nearly 32m Glimmer worth of Fragments. Will never worry about Glimmer for a long time I guess.
@McSpicyYT11 ай бұрын
If Bungie decides to make it so we can't trade in our phantasmal fragments for glimmer, the community (especially the people who've invested thousands of shards into phant-frags) are going to be absolutely pissed. All that currency saved up, thrown down the drain. I understand the point of getting rid of shards is to get rid of stocked up materials, but there's not a reason we shouldn't be able to invest in some saved up glimmer.
@AlexCamejo0111 ай бұрын
They specifically said in the twab that you won’t be able to exchange once the change is made because they want to make it fair for those who don’t have 20k shards laying there

Just a point: Bungie have said Legendary Shards are Deprecated in season 23, not abolished unless I've missed something. We really need more TWAB info to actually tell us of the economy next season (which isn't far away). Sounds as if you're currently saying 'use them or lose them' at the end of this season.

@djodyssey9911 ай бұрын
They’re deprecated because it is a use them or lose them situation. When The Final Shape releases, shards will be gone. All of this is talked about in the 9/14 TWID.

@@djodyssey99 Agreed in the Final Shape, however we have one more season before that, hence the uncertainty. Spend them all this season or not?

@@ColinDyckes My bad, I misunderstood your comment at first. Nah, we don’t need to spend them all THIS season. We still have S23 to use them, which is when the shard depreciation starts. They’re just going to be taking shards out of the cost from the Exotic Monument and weapon focusing.

Was at 200k shards, down to 170k now. Bee. Buying an alloy a week for many months. Just been mass focusing weapons to use uo my shards while buying my daily cores.

I made the mistake of burning through all of my legendary shards a few weeks back: buying mats from Rahoul, buying... whatever the moon currency is that you can trade for glimmer to rahool. Then Iron Banner came and I wanted the bow. And I had 20 legendary shards, then spent the entire week trying to farm shards to use with my engrams and to upgrade armor since I didn't have any PVP focused armor rolls. also: after all that grinding and over 50 engrams: I didn't get 1 single decent roll on the bow.

No. I've rarely ever been down for legendary lost sectors. In fact, I've been struggling just to push myself into Nightfall, and honestly I've constantly ran out of cores/prisms even after a grinding session on either of those. Either that or they just do not drop enough that it just bores and discourages me.
