[b]When the beta had launched for this game all vendors[/b] within the tower, more specifically the faction vendors,[b] had an alloted amount of [/b]faction [b]shaders along with the rest of their inventory[/b]... [b]On top of that "Eva Levonte"[/b] (A.K.A. Woman who torments me with "refreshed" stock of the same dagum stock as last week)[b] Had an inventory that would constantly update and had a variety of shaders to purchase[/b]...
[b]Now [/b]the game being out for over a month and[b] a majority of players are wearing the[i] EXACT[/i] same shaders because nothing is available to us[/b]... [b]the game was supposed to be make yourself legend, [i]Not [/i]homogenize every character until they all look the exact same...
[/b]
[b]I understand some loot and the necessity for keeping it RNG based but [i]SHADERS!!![/i][/b]...[b]Shaders are expressions of our personal taste and preference[/b]...there isn't some majical OP shader that needs a nerf nor buff...its a SHADER...and [b]people should be able to dye their armor to their liking[/b]...
[b]Shaders shouldnt be treated like an exotic item [/b]([i]unless they have truly exotic traits such as "Tron" lighted armor, or hive shaded armor with glowing green visor tints, in which case these could be harder to ascertain but should still be ATTAINABLE[/i])[b] and shouldnt be left to RNG[/b] [b]or the [/b]forsaken [b]Cryptarch to hand out[/b] in one of his oh so gracious "care packages" [b]for leveling him up[/b]...
If anyone else is sincerely dissapointed or simply fed up and would like access to more shaders [b]please sign/post here[/b]...
I thank you all for reading this as well ^-^

The vendors.. All of them.. They need to cycle... Badly
-
/[i]licks his desert camo shader[/i]

You're right sir, I support you all the way! I wish we could dye our armor like in Halo, okay it wasn't much but atleast you could make your Sparten as you'd like.
-
I bought,i think its called Polar Oak,off that she devil in the tower,went to have a look and load it onto my character...got a little sick in my mouth. We should be able to preview shaders
-
Agree with you all the way around.
-
I could tell you....
-
It would be nice to have some actual choices. The same 30 are getting old.
-
I don't like rants but sure I'll SIGN as I'm bored of the shaders I have
-
There's apparently 108 shaders in the game, I've seen maybe 20. Where are the rest?
-
im not joking when I say this...they will release 3 new colours with each dlc
-
I can somewhat understand the RNG. I would like to see tiered rewards for shaders though. It gives me an objective. Get rank 5 with any faction to get this. Get "this" much Grimiore score for that shader. Even if it is a rehash of some of CoD's challenges; it would be refreshing. For example, this many headshots with this type weapon. These challenges added to the endgame of many games I've played. Even though I hated CoD, doing those challenges to get those rewards kept me coming back. A way of saying that I stuck to it and finally got it. I didn't care if other people had the same thing. There was a sense of accomplishment.

The game just started, just wait a couple of months ffs...

I wish we could customize our colors I mean even Reach had a better custom system its weird Bungie backtracked.

Finally someone started this thread!! I am so sick of Eva "the old woman" that sells the same crap since day One. Her "refresh" is like April's Fool joke every other two days. If I can punch her, I will. My husband who we play together 99.9% of the time gets shaders for leveling up and end results. I get virtually none. And yes, he gets more purple engrams than me too. So don't tell me my "shaders" is being replaced by Legendary stuff because they didn't! Ever since I got my first "bloodpact" (the ugly beige shader that looks ugly on all classes) I get "Achilles" and "Gilgamesh" after grinding Crucible. I don't even have to go Crucibles just to get shaders. So this itself is a joke. Once again Bungie "forcing" us to play certain modes. Can you even believe that other than these shaders I mentioned (and yes Raid's "Chatterwhite"), Queen's shader, Iron Banner's shaders, I get NO MORE shader. Waiting for shader to drop is even harder than my engram turned into Exotic. Trust me. It's ridiculous and dumb. This is NO WAY of a RPG game, I cannot even change colors of my characters. At this point, I am very upset and mad about "praying for shaders" because I know the game won't give me. And did I mention I am a freelance interior designer? Color matters to me. Hello!!
-
I refused to wear shaders at first because of how terrible they are. Not until I got blood pact and god of war.. I looked like a hobo but it was better than looking like Mint Berry Crunch.
-
Please more shaders !
-
So much this. Also, never thought about exotic shaders that glow, I guess for hive it'd be a similar effect as 'Bad Juju'. That'd be awesome, especially if each faction had two exotic shaders. An all black one for Dead Orbit, A crimson one for New Monarchy, etc. A Queen purple glowing one would also be sweet.

Welcome in the Destiny's paradox : a game were you wear belts, armbands and capes that are useless. And are there only for their aesthetic side (even a few points of Light...).This gear is only available for customization. But on the other hand, the shaders' seller sells only 4 shaders... 4. 4 !!!! I can not even distinguish the hunters, they all look the same...
-
I was wondering the exact same thing. Not too bothered seeing as I've got a handful of shaders, but I'm just curious as to how and when we'll get the other shaders in the game. My best bet would be from DLC or events.
-
You people are complaining about shaders? Lol. I'm still wondering what happened to Mercury and Saturn.
-
Probably in DLC. I'm just sayin!
-
They don't have time to explain why they don't have time to explain. So no shaders...
-
I think this is a symptom of a larger issue. All the vendors are ill-conceived. The gunsmith's weapons are garbage so he's just an NPC you sometimes take tokens to, to get a decent shooter. The Cryptarch decodes engrams but no matter how high you level his reputation his stock is always whites with a couple of greens. The lady selling shaders never has knew stock and the stuff the speaker sells is uniformly crap. As to the specific question about the shaders I honestly believe they made them loot drops in a cynical way to keep us playing and grinding longer so that they can justify spending the money they have spent so far and the money it will cost to fix the issues and add content. More of a personal opinion this, but I think the colour schemes are way off anyway. The tile for bloodpact shows a gold centre, a white circle and a gold background. When you use it the shader is gold white and red :/ You also cant get a good colour combo. I just want a black jumpship but I get yellow and brown or red and blue. The jetbikes are even worse. Black goes with everything. add black and red or black and gold or black and purple. Same for white too
-
Agreed 100%!
-
maybe you've seen under city shader. never seen anyone wearing that :)
