Also don't forget to do the daily public events so you can get the strange coins or motes of light. Trade them in to Xur on the weekend for some exotic engrams, weapons or gear.

Up for the Vault sometime? I'm at 25, so it should be workable. Tag is Cannon Fragger (XBone).

Precision kills don't show on the end of mission report for some reason, but they're still tracked. Grab a precision kill bounty the next time one shows up. It'll track fine.

what is the difference between Eagle, Viper, Wolf, and tiger anyway? Why should I start with Tiger first?

well I just tried eagle and it didn't budge me at all. This is just ridiculous. So the only way I can move up at all is to play the hardest setting now? I'm not even that good. I also, don't understand how leveling only works with equipment and not character. I just feel like I keep wasting my time when I spend a half hour on a level and get nothing for my time. It dropped three items but none of them were worth a shit.

Add me on PSN: TheGentleman69. Im mid 28 (Ill probably be 30 the next time Xur re-appears). I won't be on much until after Xmas but after that I'm happy to run with you through strikes until you're high enough to run VOG (where you should get really good weapons) and then we can roll through that bitch as well.

It's slow because gaining faction ranks is slow, and gaining marks takes time. Faction ranks you get doing bounty missions and also by doing dailies and weeklies and (I think...) random strikes like you mentioned. You get marks basically the same way, by doing playlist strikes, dailies, weeklies and one more thing, public missions, which are area missions that will spawn as you run patrols. Oh yes, forgot patrols, which are another way to gain rep. Basically you can get one, non-random piece of equipment for yourself every week doing this. One you hit rank 3 with the vanguard you'll also receive a random reward every faction rank, which could be a weapon or piece of armor (for any class). It seems complicated but once you figure it out it's pretty simple. |

And then once you have your gear, you gain character levels (aka light) by gaining xp on all that gear by doing basically everything. This is where farming materials on each of the planets (while you run patrols) as well as collecting ascended materials comes into play. You use that stuff to level up your purple gear, which in turn gives you more light and a higher character level.
Hopefully that all makes sense. |

So wait, purple gear is better than the light blue gear?
