Infinite grenades

If you have an armor piece that allows you to respawn with grenade energy (for example, Voidfang Vestments for the Warlock class), simply use your grenade(s), then keep switching grenade types for instant grenade energy, allowing you to have unlimited grenades. Once you get used to using this trick, it only takes a few seconds to do.

Vex Mythoclast exotic fusion rifle

Defeat Atheon (final boss) in the Vault Of Glass on Hard mode to have a chance at getting the Vex Mythoclast exotic fusion rifle, which is the only fusion rifle in the game that is considered a primary weapon instead of a special weapon. It also does not have to be charged to fire. It is one of the best weapon in the game. Note: This is the only way to obtain the Vex Mythoclast.

Murmur legendary fusion rifle (“The Dark Below” DLC)

Successfully complete the following missions to receive the Murmur legendary fusion rifle from Eris Morn:

    “Fist Of Crota”: This is a Level 20 mission at Cosmodrome on Earth.
    “Siege Of The Warmind”: This is a Level 25 mission. Find Rasputin’s bunker, and defend it against the Hive attack.
    “The Wakening”: This is a Level 26 mission at the Ocean Of Storms on the Moon. Go to the Temple Of Crota, and destroy Crota’s soul.

The following upgrades are available for the Murmur:

    Kneepads: Costs 250 glimmer. Allows players to slide farther.
    Grenadier: Costs 95 glimmer. Reduces cooldown of grenades with each kill.
    Snapshot: Costs 95 glimmer. Increases ADS speed.
    Lightweight: Costs 95 glimmer. Gives +2 Agility when Murmur is equipped.

Necrochasm exotic auto rifle (“The Dark Below” DLC)

First, obtain the “Husk Of The Pit” common auto rifle. It drops from sword-wielding Blade Of Crota Hive Knights in the Earth and Moon Patrol missions, as well as the “Fist Of Crota” mission. Next, purchase an Embalming Orb from Eris Morn for ten Black Wax Idols after reaching reputation Level 3. Unlock the “Cannibalism” perk on the Husk Of The Pit weapon, and kill 500 Hive enemies to evolve the Husk Of The Pit into the “Eidolon Ally” legendary auto rifle. Then, get a Crux Of Crota by defeating the raid Boss of “Crota’s End” on the Hard difficulty. Use the Crux Of Crota to unlock the “Burgeoning Hunger” perk. Finally, kill another set of Hive enemies to upgrade the Eidolon Ally into the “Necrochasm” exotic auto rifle.

The Lighthouse (“House Of Wolves” DLC)

Go undefeated in the Trials Of Osiris for a full nine matches of a single Trials Passage to gain access to The Lighthouse on Mercury in the Caloris Spire. There are exotic weapons and an exclusive emblem inside.

The Urn Of Sacrifice (“The Dark Below” DLC)

The Urn Of Sacrifice must be purchased from Xûr, Agent Of The Nine, for one Strange Coin when he is available during weekends. You will then be asked to kill 25 Thrall with Solar damage using a fusion rifle and collect all the items dropped. If you die, your progress will be lost. After killing the required 25 Thrall, return the Urn to Xûr to complete this mission. Note: Instead of purchasing The Urn Of Sacrifice to progress the storyline, you can opt to acquire The Extermination from Eris Morn and complete it instead. That mission requires you to kill Wizards and Knights.

“The Will Of Crota” strike (“The Dark Below” DLC)

“The Will Of Crota” is a Level 26 strike mission at Old Russia on Earth. Successfully complete the following steps to unlock it. Talk to Eris Morn to get the “Fist Of Crota” bounty, which requires completion of the first storyline mission. You will then unlock “Siege Of The Warmind” which will in turn unlock another bounty named “The Wakening”. Completing those bounties will reward you with the Murmur legendary fusion rifle and additional bounties. The “Extermination” bounty requires you to kill 25 Knights or Wizards. This can be completed during “The Wakening” bounty, when you encounter four Knights and four Wizards in the final room. Intentionally die after killing them, and repeat the process until you reach the required total. The next set of three bounties will require you to find certain objects or enemies on Earth:

    Hand Of Crota: Enter the Lunar Complex on Earth, and search the interior until you find a dark room full of Hive enemies. Kill all the enemies and move to the top-right edge of the area. Once there, you will encounter an enemy named “Servant Of The Hand”. Kill it and the other Hive enemies to complete the bounty.

    Eyes Of Crota: Enter the Terrestrial Complex at Skywatch. Move through the building until you find an open area. Explore the area to find the “Servant Of The Eyes” next to a jar. Kill it and collect the jar. Kill the remaining enemies to complete the bounty.

    Heart Of Crota: Enter the refinery at the Devil’s Lair. Get past the first area to encounter the “Servant Of The Heart”. Kill it to spawn a Wizard, then kill it to complete the bounty. Note: This is before the area where your Ghost cuts through the lasers.

After completing the bounties, return to Eris to get another bounty to unlock the “The Will Of Crota” strike. Successfully complete the strike to get an armor upgrade, 20 Vanguard Marks, and 4,800 experience points.

Gold chest unlockables

Collect the listed number of gold chests in the indicated location to get the corresponding reward:

Earth

    One chest: Forester 2.1 gauntlets (Hunter and Titan)
    Two chests: Baron RS/2a
    Three chests: No reward
    Four chests: Enigma Burn chest armor (Warlock)
    Five chests: S-22 Nomad (Hunter), S-22 Cavalier (Titan), or S-22 Seeker (Warlock) Sparrow

    Four chests: Brawler’s Cloak (Hunter), Mark Of The Chosen (Titan), Trained Chaos (Warlock)
    Five chests: Arihant Type 1 chest armor (Titan), Tengu Operant chest armor (Warlock)

Reaching Level 20 quickly

Travel to the Tower. Go to the bounty board, and accept the following bounties:

    “Death Or Glory: Successfully complete 5 Clash Matches” or “Domination: Successfully complete 5 Control Matches”
    “Forged In Fire: Win 3 Crucible Matches”
    “Shaking The Pillars: Defeat 25 Titans in the Crucible” or “The Wild Hunt: Defeat 25 Hunters in the Crucible”

These bounties can easily be obtained by playing five Clash or Domination matches. Once you have completed the bounties, return to the bounty board, and turn them in. Accept more “defeat bounties,” such as “Throw Down: Defeat 20 Guardians with your melee attack.” Then, go to the Crucible, and select Rumble mode. This is the easiest game mode to obtain 25 kills and melee kills. When you have no more bounties left to obtain, just keep playing Rumble mode repeatedly. You will earn 1,800 XP just for participating in the match, regardless if you are first or last. Note: The better the players, the quicker the game will end, giving you faster XP per hour. So do not avoid good players. The average time it takes for a rumble match to end is 7 minutes.

Easy XP

In Old Russia (Level 4-10), start the Cosmodrome Patrol. Summon the Sparrow, and take the left path to reach the Forgotten Shores. Enter the shipwreck area straight forward from the entrance. Jump onto the deck, and kill the enemies. Then, go to the back of the ship, and jump onto the crate to reach the platform above, where you can jump onto the landing around the smokestack. While standing on the smokestack, a group of enemies will spawn below. Use grenades, rockets, and special abilities to quickly kill them. Once they have all been defeated, simply climb back up onto the smokestack to make the enemies spawn again. Repeat this process as many times as desired. If you are below Level 10, you should gain levels with approximately 10-20 minutes of farming XP using this method.

During the “Sword Of Crota” mission (Level 7-14), you will get a powerful sword weapon that kills all enemies, except the Swarm Princes, with one hit. In the last room of the dungeon, grab the sword, and kill all enemies with it until only the third (and final) Swarm Prince remains. Let it kill you to start back at the beginning to fight all the enemies again. Repeat this process as many times as desired. Make sure to not kill the final Swarm Prince or else you will not be able to use this method any longer. Killing the Swarm Princes yield good XP, and killing each wave of enemies is very easy with the sword.

Easy glimmer

Disassemble gear you are no longer using at the inventory menu to remove the item from your inventory and be rewarded with some glimmer and materials.

To earn extra glimmer in combat, use the proper consumable item for the enemies you are fighting. They are dropped randomly by defeated enemies, and increase glimmer drops from enemies for 10 minutes. For example, use Ether Seeds while defeating Fallen enemies.

Select “Patrol” on Earth. Once you spawn, go a short distance to the left to see a small shack with an entrance that leads to an underground area. Go right at the bottom of the stairs, and enter the fist room on the right. There will be three Hive majors that appear once you enter the room. Use a “Black Wax Idol” consumable item (they will continue to occasionally drop from the defeated Hive majors). Kill the three Hive majors, then run back up the stairs, and kill the three enemies that appear outside to the left, at the top of the stairs. Then, go back to the same area, and kill the three Hive majors again. Repeat this process as many times as desired. You can earn approximately 125 glimmer every 30 seconds. Note: This method works best during the in-game daytime. Occasionally, the three Hive majors will not respawn. When this happens, you can leave the area for a few minutes, kill some other enemies, and return. You can also return to orbit, then return to the same area, and they will appear again. Additionally, you can earn some blue and purple engrams using this method.

Once you reach Level 4, start the “The Warmind” mission, and proceed to the end of the mission where your Ghost interacts with the Warmind. Before interacting with the objective, use an Ether Seed to increase the amount of glimmer you will earn. Waves of Hive enemies will appear. Kill them until the large final Boss appears. Let one of the final enemies kill you. Then, try to leave a different Hive enemy alive so you can kill the Boss instead to get better rewards each time. There is no penalty for dying, and you will spawn back at the checkpoint. Let the last enemy kill you, then keep repeating as many times as desired. Once the Ether Seed effect ends after 10 minutes, use another one. Use this method to get approximately 1,000 glimmer every 10 minutes.

Easy legendary and rare engrams

Start “The Dark Beyond” Moon mission at any level, and proceed to the temple cutscene where the large Hive door opens after the three seals disintegrate. A checkpoint will then be triggered, and a large swarm of Hive Thrall and Knight will come out from the other side of the door. Kill the Thrall, but do not kill the Knight. The Knight has a higher chance of dropping engrams, but defeating it will trigger a new checkpoint. Instead, use grenades or class abilities to kill all the Thrall, then let the Knight kill you. You will respawn along with all the enemies. Repeat this process as many times as desired. The Thrall will drop engrams and gear, and they will occasionally produce a legendary drop. Try collecting as many legendary engrams as possible. Rare engrams are useful for finding gear to break down and earn extra materials to help you unlock perks on Legendary gear. Earning lots of engrams will also increase your Cryptarch level, giving you access to better engrams daily. Since your inventory will quickly fill up, make sure to dismantle unwanted gear between killing the Thrall. This method will also earn a lot of glimmer, and is a good way to unlock Motes Of Light and Strange Coins to use with the special Exotic vendor Xur, Agent Of The Nine, in the Tower.

Easy Vanguard Marks

Marks can be earned at Level 18 and higher for completing Daily Heroics, Public Events, Strike Playlists, Vanguard Bounties, and Weekly Strikes. You get 4 Vanguard Marks for each Public Event completed. To easily earn 24 Vanguard Marks per hour, travel around the Cosmodrome in the “Earth: Old Russia – Patrol” mission. Go to the indicated locations at the listed times (each Public Event listed below has a 30 respawn counter) to participate in the corresponding Public Event. Note: It is easier to complete these Public Events with a full fireteam, but they can be completed solo.

    1. The Divide – Devil Walker Public Event; Spawn Timer: :15 / :45 past the hour
    2. The Mothyards – Random Public Event; Spawn Timer: :30 / :00 past the hour
    3. Forgotten Shores – Fallen Captain Public Event; Spawn Timer: :10 / :40 past the hour

Getting exotic gear

You have a random chance to get exotic weapons and gear (rarest and most powerful in the game) by playing matches in the Crucible, but it is not guaranteed you will actually receive any exotic gear. You are guaranteed to get exotic gear from a special vendor and bounties. There is a special vendor named Xûr, Agent Of The Nine, that appears in random areas around the Tower, but only at specific times. He spawns at 9:00 a.m. GMT/UTC on Fridays and leaves at 9:00 a.m. GMT/UTC on Sundays. Unlike other vendors, Xûr sells exotic weapons and items, and his supplies update often. However, the cost of the weapons and items use a different currency. His normal rates for exotic weapons and items cost the following amounts:

    Exotic armor: 13 Strange Coins
    Exotic weapon: 23 Strange Coins
    Exotic engram: 23 Motes Of Light

The following are some ways to earn Strange Coins:

    Earn 1 Strange Coin for completing the “Scourge Of Winter” Venus mission.
    Earn 3 Strange Coins for completing Weekly Heroic Strikes.
    Strange Coins randomly drop for completing Strikes.
    Strange Coins randomly drop in Gold Tier Public Events.
    Strange Coins randomly drop for completing Crucible matches.
    Strange Coins randomly drop from loot chests.
    Strange Coins randomly drop from blue engrams (Level 18+ only).

Motes Of Light can only be earned post-game at Level 20+. One is rewarded for completing the campaign, but the rest can be earned randomly by completing Crucible matches and Strikes, earning Gold Tier on Public Events, and opening loot chests.

There are also exotic bounties. They are unlocked by gaining new bounty leads as they appear in your mail. It is currently unknown if exotic bounties are triggered by completing bounties or finishing events. Successfully complete an exotic bounty to guarantee unlocking exotic gear. Note: Each exotic bounty has several objectives to complete, which can be quite time consuming and difficult.

Upgrading exotic gear

Xûr will now upgrade an exotic weapon with improved stats for approximately 7,000 glimmer and one Exotic Shard material. Xûr appears somewhere in the Tower at 9:00 a.m. GMT/UTC on Fridays and leaves at 9:00 a.m. GMT/UTC on Sundays. Since Xûr’s inventory changes every week, he will only upgrade specific exotics each week. He will offer different options to upgrade multiple exotics every week. To obtain Exotic Shard materials, either break down an exotic weapon to get an Exotic Shard or purchase an Exotic Shard from Xûr for seven Strange Coins. Note: Upgrading an exotic weapon will reset all purchased perks for that weapon.

Refilling ammo for free

Once your primary weapon’s ammo reaches 0, simply remain idle for approximately 45 seconds for your primary weapon’s ammo to refill, along with some special and/or heavy weapon ammo.

Ranking up gear quickly

Gear drops at the following rarity levels: basic, uncommon, rare, legendary, and exotic. Any gear above basic will often have perks you can purchase once a certain XP level has been reached. Like gaining levels, weapons and armor will eventually unlock new upgrade options. XP is shared between equipped gear and your level. Thus, gaining 500 XP toward your next level will also gain 500 XP toward ranking up an equipped weapon or piece of armor. However, weapons and armor usually require much less XP to rank up compared to leveling up. Before using the following method, make sure the gear you want to upgrade has abilities attached to it. While hovering over a weapon or armor piece, grayed out abilities will appear below the regular stats if there are abilities you can upgrade. Press Y to view the upgrades that are available on the gear. Before turning in bounties (Crucible bounties recommended), equip the gear you want to rank up, then turn in the completed bounties to get the XP from the bounties added to your level and equipped gear.

Entering the Vault Of Glass raid

The Vault Of Glass is the first raid available in the game, and was added after Destiny was released to give high level players more to do. Raids are special co-op missions that require six players. The Vault Of Glass is available on Venus at Level 26. To start the Vault Of Glass raid, you must open the doors to the vault by having a player stand on each of the three Vex pressure pads in the opening chamber to summons a spire. To activate a pad and begin constructing the spire, one player needs to stand in the circle for several seconds. Once a pad is activated, Vex will begin spawning and assaulting the three plates. If an enemy gets inside the circle, you will begin to lose spire building progress. A good way to defend all three pads at once is to have three teams with two players each. Have one player stay inside the circle while the other player defends it. The Minotaurs are the biggest challenge. Save heavy weapons and overcharge abilities to quickly kill them. Once the spire is complete, a laser will fire into the vault doors to open them.

Moving faster in Tower

While in the Tower, start sprinting. After a few steps, start jumping to speed up your momentum. When you land, jump again. Keep jumping while landing to keep your momentum, allowing you to travel more quickly in the Tower compared to running.

    Quicker reloads

    Do not wait for the full reload animation to complete. Your weapon is considered reloaded the moment the ammo counter increases. For almost all weapons, this corresponds to when the sound effect and the animation of the magazine being inserted into the weapon happens. You can sprint one step, switch weapons twice quickly, or throw a grenade to cancel the rest of the reload animation and still have a fully reloaded weapon.

    Defeating Devil Walkers

    Wait until a Devil Walker’s legs begin glowing after it lands. Then, shoot each leg to stun it, and a glowing weak point will appear on its neck. Make sure to switch legs after stunning it each time. After a leg is destroyed, it cannot be broken again. Rocket launchers and sniper rifles work best on the Devil Walker’s weak points.

    Defeating Goblins

    Shooting a Goblin in its head will not kill it, and will only stun it briefly and then cause it to charge at you. Aim for the glowing white core in its chest instead. Note: They often crouch to shield their weak spot with their heads.

    Defeating Hydras

    Hydras have a semi-circular shield that rotates around them. To bypass it, have a player on either side constantly shooting at the yellow glowing weak spot on the lower portion of its head.

    Defeating Sekrion, Nexus Mind

    Kill the Vex enemies around a Sekrion before engaging it. Like other Hydra, the Sekrion has a rotating indestructible shield. When the shield is facing you, move clockwise (in the opposite rotation of the shield) to get a line-of-sight on the Sekrion, or focus on taking out the Vex. Have all players on the same half of the area, and space them far enough apart so the Sekrion’s weapons cannot do splash damage to multiple players. However, remain close enough so that three players will have a clear line of fire on the Sekrion’s head. When the Sekrion targets a player, have him or her take cover while the other players shoot at its head. It is important to maintain constant fire at the Sekrion’s head.

    Defeating Sepiks Primes

    Aim at a Sepiks Prime’s eye at close range to inflict critical damage. Note: Its eye is immune to critical damage from fusion rifles.

    Defeating Valus Ta’aurc

    Spread the fireteam out to avoid splash damage from Valus’ missiles. Get on high ground to target Valus’ head easier. Wait until Valus completes his entrance animation, which happens when he is done firing his gun wildly. When Valus moves from one end of the room to the other, avoid attacking him since there will be a series of incoming missiles. Use the large boxes on the upper balconies as cover from his gun and missiles, but be aware of the Phalanxes that spawn from the sides.
