Pre the DLC, I would make sure I did the daily in an attempt to get Ascendent Material to level up my armor and weapons. Post DLC there's really no point to do the daily missions especially if your weapons are already maxed out and you have the new Raid Armor. I haven't done a daily in a while and the only time I do is when one of my friends is doing it, but I just usually join for the conversation

I'm about 99% sure the XP bonus doesn't apply on my weapons anyway. I turn in a bounty for 5000 experience and I'll see my gun move. I do the highest level daily that should give like 7000 experience? I see no visible gain. This is ever after using the gun in the whole level. I've viewed it before the final kill so as not to skew it with XP I've gained from kills and I compare it after I hit the results screen. Can anyone confirm it actually does? It goes to armor just fine.
