I've been doing this too...thats how I've jumped from 288 to 295 in a day...now everyone knows
<_<

So it works pre 305? This is a game changer.

yes..there is....farming tokens and whatnot..see grave robbers post..for now 350 LL is max for now....I wonder when is Bungie gonna open the cap for higher LL...hmmm
Not sure I follow? My point is, why go through the grind of getting a higher PL when the game feels the same at PL 200 as it do when youre PL 300?
In the end, were just grinding this game to get a higher numbered character... makes no sense. Iron Banner may be the only thing that will benefit from having a higher PL.

Supposedly they're a little buggy. You have to wait a bit or something in between opening them. But I mean what you're buying is basically just a chance at a legendary/exotic engram, not like you do much. Pay 4.5k glimmer, and the exact spot is on your map. The whole treasure map thing was kind of a letdown tbh, could've been a legit treasure hunt or something.
Did not work on Sloane. My pl is 291
Didn't work for me either.
Just so I understand this 30 minute vendor trick.
I give a vendor 20 tokens (or enough to get an engram). I weight 1hr before collecting and I'll be given the highest level engram for my current light level?
I'm currently at 282 light and the engram while I'm waiting is (I gave it at 10:05) is still 273. It hasn't changed at all and it is now 10:39

Not wait only 1 hour.
It cycles from lowest PL you can get -10 from current to the max possible -5 PL from current
So if your 282, your Engram range is 273 - 277
It will cycle every 30 minutes
Average wise 5 cycles equals 2.5 hours
Sometimes it may stay the same # (I haven't run into it problem at all, but I'm guessing it possible)
So if you see it at 273, wait till :00 and see what you get, might be 273 again (I fucking hope not!) or it can be anywhere between 274-277 for you

Which is exactly how they want you to play?
I don't think Destiny was every meant or designed to be a daily grinder. It's a come on back for the DLC design. Which imo is great. I don't understand why some folks say "after 120 hours (or more, or a month worth of play) they are done but will come back for the dlc. That's exactly what they want? And I'm happy to do it. I can come on back when I want but play something else inbetween. It's perfect
If you are 250-ish in terms of power level, 2 good players can carry you for a NF runAfter I did the Titan flashpoint, the only milestones that will advance me this week (in PvE) are the Nightfall and the raid. Both of which I'm trying to advance toward, since I'm too low to run them. Chicken, meet egg. :
Do you have talk to do nightfalls/raids? I'd like to do them but I've no friends online and don't know if I'd be into taking to random people all day.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing.. going to try this out right now.
Again so I understand correctly.. Trade tokens in up to the point where you unlock a legendary engram, but dont claim it yet. Wait every 30 min to see when the Power Level of the Engram changes? Once the number changes to the desired power lvl, buy as many legendary engrams you can get within that 30min slot?
It shouldn't take you a lot of time to hit 270. You can use the Gunsmith legendary engrams to get to 260 easily and from there the exotic quests which I hope you have saved. Even then 260 is enough for NF and raid.After I did the Titan flashpoint, the only milestones that will advance me this week (in PvE) are the Nightfall and the raid.

My shaxx is sitting at 299 atm
My friends have warned me against it (I'm 266-ish), and I don't like being carried. Though I might try it later this weekend anyways for something to do.If you are 250-ish in terms of power level, 2 good players can carry you for a NF run

Correcto Friendo
Whatever your Max PL is, equip your best 3 Weapons and Armor slots.
Then subtract -10, that will be the lowest, -5 from your current PL will be the highest the Engram can be
So if you hit 305, 300 Engram should cycle as a vendor package for 30 minutes, I'm waiting on Nessus right now
So far it's been 296, 299, 297, 298 at the moment
So 2 hours so far, now hoping 300 is next slit up in cycle, if not, that means the PL can fluctuate back to another # already seen
(I'm hoping here, if not cycle maybe longer, than that's more iffy to fully determine)
Nightfall is doable. Use lfg and put no mic in the description. You should get invites.
Raid needs a mic pretty much. Especially if it's your first time.
It shouldn't be a big problem with one or two people below 270. You will also get the opportunity to level up to 275ish or 10 light levels thanks to the drops before you get to the final section.I'm getting really conflicting feedback about the raid light level. When I hit 260 I thought I was raid worthy and literally everyone I'd talked to since laughed at the notion.

Nessus didn't work either when I tried it.

I've completed all the exotic quests I had. I leveled up just doing the stuff I wanted to do.

Ah doesn't seem to help lower level players. I'm at 270 and Sloane et al are all still at 265 light reward.

Well Failsafe gave me 299 again!
Hmmm... So I've seen those 4, 296, 297, 298, 299 but no 300 yet...
Wearing PL 305, interesting.
This might be the case for me too
I'm at 293 and my engrams have been stuck at 283 for over an hour now.
I've only tried in the EDZ, so I'm wondering if maybe it works with another vendor.
Is there other preconditions for this to work? Like not teleporting away from Devrim or having to switch planets and then come back.
Anyone at the start of the rat king quest? finding it hard to find anyone to do it with

yeah, have to report the same for me. 294PL, engram at devrim stayed at 285 for the past 1.5 hrs (checking every 30 mins).
do you have to stay on the planet while waiting or just check back every 30 min rotation?
No idea why you guys aren't getting the cycle
I think EDZ is the only that goes 300?
Cause so far Nessus has been 299 and some here stayed Titan was 299 for them
Figuring this out, is gonna be awhile lol
I've stayed on Planet and left to Tower and went back to Planet, it changed for me

Yeah Failsafe has stayed on 299 for way too long.
Past hour or so. So I'm guessing EDZ is best bet.
