I ended up getting the cryptarch to level 9. Each level gives a package that would normally give you glimmer, materials and sometimes a rare engram.

Wow, 9 is way more than what I had. I'm hoping that some of the non-armor loot has a good value in the game.
-
Lol. I spent a lot of glimmer on the Cryptarch. The material loot is going to be needed for the upgrades on rare and higher loot items.
-
I just gave him engrams that I picked up. I didn't think about buying them then again, aren't the dropped engrams better than the purchased engrams in some cases?

-
I see. Well now I know a lot of ways to increase rep to get some good loot from him.
-
I honestly hope you can't just receive Exotic weapons from him in the full game. That would be dumb. I think the only reason people were getting Exotics is because Bungie wanted to show them off.
-
Yeah. Probably the only way you would get exotics are from the vanguards, factions, and really rare mob drops. If a mob were to drop an exotic then it's probably really good. Same goes for exotics from raids and strikes.

Edited by Glitched: 8/24/2014 2:58:39 AMSupposedly you can purchase some of them from a vendor known as [i]Xur, Agent of the Nine[/i], using rare currency like [i]Strange Coins[/i], [i]Motes of Light[/i], and [i]Glass Shards[/i]. [spoiler]He sort of looks like Hunter wearing all black, with a mask, that resembles a Jawa, with glowing yellow eyes.[/spoiler] I think his shop is that black market-looking area with all the Fallen and Cabal guns located under the Hangar.
-
Yes, I saw this in a Moreconsole video and really want to see what he has in stock. I still don't even know how I got a strange coin in the first place.
-
I know I got a couple of strange coins as a daily reward for completing a public event. I think I also got a couple from the legendary packages you receive for leveling up the Cryptarch.
-
Yeah I heard you get them from completing public events. I think I got one from the vanguards but I only got one.

-
Yeah. Most of the armor I've seen, though, doesn't really have that much variation from each other style wise.
-
Tip o' the iceberg, my friend. [spoiler]I hope, lol.[/spoiler]
