You can also pick them up in the mission that you go to claim Crotas soul.

I don't mind setting aside a night for this but it's important we get a few teams going, 2 noobs a team would be no bother to fill but getting 4 salty dogs might be the bigger issue. Anyway that's 3 so far showing interest.

I haven't ran VoG in such a long time that I don't know how the Templar is done now!! Do 5 still go up high or does everyone run around with the relic holder down below?

Ah nostalgia. Remember pushing the Templar off the edge as the only warlock in the group with his fusion grenades. "Stand back lads, I got this"

I've to get a crux of crota so I wouldn't mind goin if there's space. Done VoG & CE once each but that doesn't mean I have an iota of what was happening in either of them

IB done, back the grind to lvl 25 with New Monarchy 23.5 now. This is expensive business! Pushing everything I have into my Titan, I should have just stuck to a faction from the start instead of faffing around between them all the time.

Edit: Questions! Do I earn more rep with heavy ammo or weapon parts? Also, do you earn faction rep with CoE? And do any of the boosters enhance the faction rep?

Run 6 old raids. Break down everything. Run to Speaker. Convert to motes.

I actually used the New Monarchy stuff rather than the IB class item, shader and Emblem as I needed 10 PvP wins on my hunter for the exotic class item. Ended up with seven wins which got to me to rank 5 and I must have given up.

I think that it is 25 for Heavy/special ammo. 50 for the Planetary mats/weapon parts/armour. 100 for motes of light.
Don't think CoE increases faction rep.

I did the same thing on my Titan for FWC, got to 10 wins last night. Now need to do 4 heroic strikes to finish that part of it off. There is Arc burn on Heroic strikes this week - which is grand as you can use the zhalo to tear through things.

There's Arc Burn on Heroics now?

Yep, since that balancing patch a few weeks ago the heroics have modifiers.

I'm in the same boat, I switched between all factions on all my characters

So, after a gazillion games of IB, I have 0 Colovance's to show for it. On the flip side, I'll be offering discount Helms and Ghosts at the Tower this week. Come find me down in the hanger, be hanging out under the FWC offices.

I already have two in vault, just annoyed at not getting some infusion fuel.

Don't feel like your missing anything special. I got my three to lvl5 and in the process picked up about 12 or 13 of them as well as numerous class items. I used one of the scouts with explosive rounds for a day or two but switched to Suros Dis-43 or Lethe Noblesse, and they seemed to do much much better.
And what the hell was with all the 334 rewards??? I'm sure they did that to piss people off.

I love that gun. Though I'm a jade rabbit addict, so colovance is like a replacement drug when I wanna use an exotic elsewhere.

It's no Gheleon's...

gimli2112

Ah I like the Colovance, haven't used it in PvP but I like it in PvE. Got 4-5 of them between my two characters. 2 decent rolls, although one of them was the one I purchased.

I got 3 x 335 and 1 by 334 and a 332 Mark

But didn't get any helmets. Wanted an Int/Dis Iron Camelot helmet but the stats on it seemed lower than my Int/Str version. I can hit Tier 5 on both Int/Dis with that helm, so no worries.

Rank 24 & 3/4!! Should make 25 this evening. It'll be a grind, but its progress and something constructive, albeit unrewarding grimoire wise. Question for Nev.... how do you have so many done already!?!?! :O

Hit FWC25 on my hunter Sunday night. Went to do a few strikes last night but some noobs needed me to drag them through KingsFall. :rolleyes::pac:

Seems this week is a good'n for the Heroic strikes - apart from the Sabre Strike. Back the feck out of that immediately.

NM 22 on my Titan, 21 on my Warlock.

Don't think I will bother trying for any others when I am done - Dead Orbit on the Hunter would be the only one of interest, cause I assume the DO cloak looks awesome but i've no interest in ranking up25 levels for it.

Titan:

DO:31
NM:22
FWC:2

Warlock:

DO:5
NM:21
FWC:11

Hunter:

DO:0
NM:0
FWC:25

Does 25 with the factions get you anything in particular? I haven't been focussing on any one in particular, just sort of shifting between them from time to time. Apart from some all right gear, most interesting thing I've gotten was a Dead Orbit ship.

An exotic class item, which also has a faction specific spawn animation (but basically unnoticeable)

I have issues!

I put a load of consumables into them - strange coins are only good for heavy ammo synths now. I also had materials from VoG/CE which converted to ALOT of MoL which helped level the factions up.
