And ran out of exotic shards.
Now maybe you all have had this happen to you, ect..
But I started thinking about ways to even get an exotic shard:
#1. It cannot be dropped naturally. Anywhere.
#2. Xur no longer sells them (or I have missed them these past few times)
#3. 3oC's method specifically makes it so Strange Coins cost less with Xur's weapon then running entire strikes (hopefully you don't get Psions too many times).
Hey Bungie. Here's a few ideas:
#1. Shards drop and can eventually form an exotic engram. Make it a fun treasure hunt in patrol if you want.
#2. Raids/ToO- drops them for kills.
#3. Xur simply sells them again.
#4. We drop the infuse option on all exotics so they can just be upgraded normally.
#5. Daily heroic reward.
Just some ideas, feel free to post your own.

Buy weapons from kiosk, upgrade them with motes, dismantle for two shards. Wash rinse and repeat as needed.

Edited by TheKungLao: 2/16/2016 2:10:19 AMI just buy the cheapest exotic Xur sells when he comes around. 13 strange coins I believe is the cheapest. It's six more than it used to cost when he sold them but it's the only sure fire way to aquire them at the moment. If you level the exotic up before you dismantle it I believe you can get two shards. Edit: l like option 3. I think Xur just needs to start selling them like he used to.

Edited by XTempistX: 2/16/2016 12:08:01 AMBuy an exotic from the kiosk and dismantle it. I have 20 on each of my two side characters and 46 on my main. I raided a lot and got plenty of drops. Maybe do more raids? I think I bought about 14 from Xür overall so yeah... To be fair though, Xür could sell them again. I don't see why not but then again, buy an engram and dismantle it after decryption.
