whats the point of legendary marks if u can get armor drops that have better stats...i was farmin marks all day to get this fwc helmet (280 defense) and i played one crucible match that got me a helmet with 282 defense.... like i dont get it
vendor legendaries and armsday weapons are for the rolls, not the light level values
sure, i could get a 297 rocket launcher in a strike - but is it gonna have the stats of The Vertigo along with guaranteed Javelin + Grenades and Horseshoes? Not likely.
armor is the same way. i don't wear blue gear because i know that he str/int/dis stats won't cap at as high of a number than legendary. focusing on legendary stuff also allows you to direct your builds better as well. i run a lot of nightstalker, so i'm always looking to find the best str/int gear to keep my smoke grenades ready. i prioritize those over the grenades in that class so it only makes sense. for gunslinger, int/dis. golden gun needs to be up as often as possible and the grenades hit way harder.
there's more to it than just hitting 300+ as quick as possible
infuse often basically. i keep high level blues around just to pour into stuff that i see potential in
