[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 ^-^

Couldn't agree more. The game is awesome, but making characters even more personal is definitely a step in the right direction. I've seen images of like 50 shaders online, I dont understand why Eva wouldn't rotate them - I'm no programmer but I am sure it isn't that difficult to code in - especially since Xur has rotating stock (well, except Warlock gloves lol) Great post OP - I really hope they add this back into the game, shaders are awesome, we need more of them!

Ive searched for these too, and have good news for you... THEY ARE THERE, well at least the Dead Orbit ones are being found. Bittersteel and Revnant have both been attained through LVLing up the rep. Its still slightly random but seems there is a range. Ive seen 4 verifications of recieving Bittersteel from rank 6, 8*2, and highest was 11. Revenant was higher up at rank 14 reward I believe. That would suggest to me that the otherfactions are probably keeping theirs at higher rep levels too as rewards, but I havent seen anyone who cares about the other 2 of any rank yet.

Great post,agree 100% ,signed!

Yea - that's one if the items that bug me as well. I can't see how this is difficult to incorporate if it was already in the Beta.

Everyone wants them, but the thing is Bungie either was not prepared or they are are ready to sell them as "dlc".

signed hope we get new shaders.

Agreed.

Agreed. Make shaders easier to obtain, but not so easy to the point where I get rewarded with a shader every time I complete one of my Vanguard Tiger Strikes.

Agreed - BUNGIE ARE YOU LISTENING!!!!

Edited by BrokenLance: 10/20/2014 7:24:02 PMlol yeah they totally removed them, you may get one from levelling a faction but the odds are miniscule. I think they were taken out at about the time when shaders were taken off the old 'type 1, type 2, type 3' system, and then they were never put back into the game. Maybe they forgot. maybe it's cut content. Maybe it's timed content for a reputation grind 'event' they have coming up. anyway i really appreciate the fact you found the screenshot. Bungie will of course ignore you but it's nice to bring back stuff like this that was removed for pretty much no reason - i mean most people aren't going to grind reputation for dead orbit shaders. Most players don't even know dead orbit shaders exist!

just another sign that shows they are holding a shitton of content back
