[b]EDIT: READ THE EDIT AT THE BOTTOM BEFORE SAYING SOMETHING STUPID.[/b]
I'm here to set the world ablaze.
200 Vanguard marks for 1 Etheric Light
200 Crucible marks for 1 Etheric Light
This would have an automatic weekly cap since you can't earn 200 a week.
Boom. Best idea ever made. Bring it.
EDIT: I want to thank everyone for their support for this idea. Even the people who disagreed politely. I have no illusions that this idea will ever be implemented, but it's still nice to see that I'm not the only person here who thinks this could work.
Thanks again for the support and keep bumping and liking this post.
[b]EDIT: Etheric Light is no longer viable as Bungie has lost their damn minds and won't be allowing us to ascend legendary gear.[/b]

This.

Lol, why not? I'd spend my marks on that, even though i don't need it. Unless bungie has a better idea for marks.
-
Dude this is genius! This is fool prof.
-
Honestly not a bad idea. I personally don't need the stuff, but I can honestly see why casual players need a different source for obtaining the materials for endgame content.
-
Great idea. What else are we using them for? The Vangard weapons aren't worth buying and I already have hundreds of helium filaments, spirit blooms, relic iron and spinmetal. Bungee should have already considered this...

-
Great idea since marks are all but worthless
-
Beat PoE every week and go flawless on three characters in trials. I do it. Not hard.

Edited by Kardain: 7/9/2015 10:42:21 PMOne (or two with crucible) every 2 weeks per character (assuming you don't spend marks on anything else)? Sure. Why not.
-
Edited by chrisEm: 7/9/2015 10:14:51 PMI have like 20 of this and don't know what to use it on. Eventually it will be useless material. And it's really not that difficult to come by. If you have 3 characters u can get 6 a week from PoE and 6 from trials. If you can't beat 34 PoE by now just send me a friend request and I will help you. And if you're bad at PvP or trials just use thorn and camp. PS4 user name the same as my Bungie user name
-
Or just beat 32 PoE to get to lvl 33 then beat PoE 34 to get etheric light. Then two weeks later stop playing cause you run out of shit to do.
-
Nah. Have 22 on tap in my vault and 14 used. It's easy to get.

Edited by Kiruno: 7/7/2015 2:42:07 AMi have to disagree because Us Hardcore players should be able to earn etheric light and low levels don't need etheric light so this is a bad idea
-

They will not implement this method for obtaining etheric light because we still haven't seen all the ways that you can obtain etheric light. Once you reach house of judgement rank 3 you will get free easteregg light from verax in his packages

Edited by J of Core: 7/9/2015 8:15:56 PMYeah that would be cool. Give me something to spend my marks on again. Lately I haven't even cared that I'm at 200 because there's nothing I want to buy with them. Armor I don't want so I can break it down for motes of light that I already have too many of? Ditto for weapons... And materials are much easier to come by now too so I only need to but relic iron every so often... Don't get me wrong, I love it that I don't have to farm for stuff anymore, but I wish there was something useful to buy with marks. In the past I would always buy weapons or armor for ascendant material since I needed that for upgrades. But now breaking down new stuff doesn't give that anymore sooooooo
-
Yep..Have Xur sell it for casuals and solo players. Currently, only available from Bungie-Deemed multi-player sources. Not everyone does multi-player. So yeah..It needs to be sold.!!!

Bump! Since the absence of matchmaking outright excludes a large number of players from PoE and ToO, I think there needs to be a decent alternative. I've had to do IB for mine, and I abhor PVP. So far I've had none at all drop from NF. I wouldn't mind if there was at least one guaranteed from the NF, but without that, there does need to be some way of obtaining it otherwise. Whether it's this, or trading exotic shards for it, there really should be something.
-
Makes too much sense. Bungie will never do it. Needs to be totally stupid before they will look at it.
-
Yep..Most definitely..All loyal solo and casual players dissed. Making EL only available through multi-player avenues. Shame on you Bungie.!! Make it right by adding EL to Xur now.!!!! We want to ascend our gear too.!!!!
-
Brilliant!!!
-
Bump because I'm -blam!-ing awesome.

I'm a badass BUMP
