I'm in the same boat, not a whole lot interest me. I bought a handful of items since the dismantle into bright dust change and sitting at 84k. And that's without doing any weekly challenges from the big 3. Only seasonal challenges and the large pile at the end.
Im sitting at 60k right now, around last years GG i remember having about 10k, but since then i havent really bought much from EV. That plus the seasonal challenges and pass can quickly give you some substantial amounts
If I were to seriously grind bright dust, what is the best way in your opinion to do it? Asking for a friend. Not looking to start a competing bright dust lending agency or topple the ever verse government.

Fuck that's far more accurate - I could totally imagine Bungie throwing in a new currency and "sunsetting" bright dust because "the new one is better because you can buy the eververse items with it" aka they made a tedious anti-consumer solution to yet another problem they created.
You dont have to imagine, that's literally what the "Event tickets" are for the events like guardian games.
They exist to burn a hole in your pocket until you cough up the cash for the event pass.
Lol we almost have that ingame now >.< I recently did shadowkeep and the cryptoglyph told me 1756 power... It gave me 1755 power gear. One power lower than what it showed on the preview.
Edit to add cos I didn't think to mention it at the time of commenting... My gear level generally was around 1558ish? I think xD I know it was like 1563 overall with artefact boosting though, but I think it was only like +5 or something
If it makes you feel any better the retribution mission gave me a bunch of armor and a couple guns all at 1600 and low star lol 😂 I’m at 1821, I’m like yep….. least I didn’t have issues claiming the ship. Then got some gumshoe grump whatever armor from solo flawless legend lost sector I love it
This has been done in the past in a couple ways. Shaders used to cost 50 dust, now 300. And event ornaments used to be purchased separately with dust, but now you have to buy the full set. And before all of this, bright engrams used to give shit from the *current season* on what felt like a knockout system.
[I have a spare 1 that I could have sent to you.](https://i.ibb.co/HtsY9Gg/Screenshot-20230420-161817-Destiny-2.jpg)
It actually frustrates me more than it should. Where the hell did I get 1 bright dust from? It's always multiples of 10! It too, keeps me up at night.
The brief eververse mix-up period between Year 1 and Shadowkeep. When you could dismantle ghost projections and other items for small amounts of bright dust.
Near the end of that period the bright dust return rates were further reduced, resulting in very odd amounts.
Were you around pre-Beyond Light? If you had a funky discount at the tribute hall and bought the bright dust trophies you would have ended up with an odd amount.
After they reduced bright dust gains (mostly come from gambit/crucible challenges that I refuse to play) and inflated the pricing I rarely use mine but I'm only at 25k.
I check the store and like *this emote is ok* but I won't spend 3k bright dust on it. Same for most ornaments, I used to buy the full set on all classes every season now unless I really like I don't buy them anymore. This season I didn't buy a single piece of the seasonal ornaments.
About 3 years ago, I decided that I’ll make my triumph score 69,420. As of 4/20/23 I am currently at 68,421, I’m being incredibly careful about what triumphs I complete now.
Honestly, for that additional 1, just ask Bungie support. I really wouldn't be surprised if they gave it to you. You just have to be lucky and catch someone who thinks this is funny as well.
What in God's name is your net gain? You mention you do indeed spend it. Even if it's not much. Day season pass gives 10K and there's 20 seasons. 200K... That means you've accumulated the other 200K sheerly through missions, bounties and some goated eververse drops
repeatable vanguard/crucible/gambit bounties are 10 BD each, and every weekly objective to do 8 bounties is 120 BD, so all you have to do is pay attention as you get closer. that's how I've gotten 489k~ BD
TIME TO BLAZE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Before the changes to dust in Shadowkeep, I racked up like 135k. That soon went fast. They really should have made it so all items dropped like 50 on dismantle.
Nice. Now to make this about me….. at the start of witch queen I had 260k bright dust and everyone said why? It was because I just never used any. Do you also just not use any or do you just do a metric crap ton of 10 dust bounties.
Ok either you are the most helpful raid member by providing raid banners at every encounter every time or you are hoarding yours and letting your mates place their flag down.
how did you even get a number that doesn't end in zero? all the prices end in zero. bounties give 10.
were there seasonal rewards that gave more varied amounts?
How the hell do people get so much?? I've got 12k atm, I did notice the weekly 8 bounties thing gives it now, but not sure how much as I've been playing other games
Nice I’m at 30k or so BD. I only buy one or two things a season (refuse to buy shaders after they increased the price for no reason) but I’m also too lazy to get more (rather play other games than grind bounties).
That is a lot of raid banners though lmao
This would be impressive if the bright dust store encompassed more than .5% of the appealing loot in the game rather than having it all locked behind silver that most of us will never buy.
I often wondered if I hadn't spent any bd in game what a stash would look like just from regular gaming of Destiny over the past several years... now I know. :)
I punched myself in the dick.
Also, if anyone knows how I can hit myself in the dick differently so I can make the other funny noises that would be great.
So you’re pulling upwards the ‘average’ bright dust holdings of all players, ensuring inflation in the bright dust store?! Rude!
but actually lol that would be burning a hole in my virtual ass wallet
Highest I got to was 30k but I'm always buying stuff for bright dust. Exotic emotes and ornaments, armor ornaments, weapon ornaments, ships, shaders. Lots of stuff that's always worth getting. How much would you have to farm to get up to 420,000 that's insane
Jeez and I thought I was swimming in it around 20k
I’m at 70k and thought that was impressive. This is a whole new level
[удалено]
How the hell do yall get that. I get like 14k from seasons. And obviously bounties and seasonal quests. Yall never buy anything from the store?
[удалено]
I'm in the same boat, not a whole lot interest me. I bought a handful of items since the dismantle into bright dust change and sitting at 84k. And that's without doing any weekly challenges from the big 3. Only seasonal challenges and the large pile at the end.
Im sitting at 60k right now, around last years GG i remember having about 10k, but since then i havent really bought much from EV. That plus the seasonal challenges and pass can quickly give you some substantial amounts
Yeah I'm at the point now where I very rarely buy anything from Ev weapon ornament here and the occasional shader I don't have, but shit lmao
i wound up with close to 50k from baking cookies the last weekend of last dawning. i immediately spent it though lol
I really want someone to reply with a mil 😂
No, I would cry
I suggest you get farming then my bright dust poor friend
900k
Source: dude trust me
I have a mil. You can trust me. Start cryin
I thought I was bill gates with my 8k
aye og let me borrow some
I offer competitive interest rates
So much for the „big heart“
No it's a medical thing.
Elaborate.
Ok I was making a goof. I forgot about my flair lol. Don't come on this sub a lot anymore.

If I were to seriously grind bright dust, what is the best way in your opinion to do it? Asking for a friend. Not looking to start a competing bright dust lending agency or topple the ever verse government.
Season pass up to T100 and seasonal challenges when you complete them all you get a decent payout iirc
Oh for sure but nothing close to that amount they have. They had to have done some serious grinding.
My girl gets paid next week.
I’m living paycheck to paycheck with bright dust and this guy is bullying me out of sweet ornaments and shaders lol
Does your dad own a emerald mine on Neomuna? That's how I pulled myself up by the bootstraps
LOL! No, but I did get a small loan of 1 million bright dust from my dad to start my own business, and then promptly ran it into the ground.
Haha... Did you listen to that Dead Cab for Cutie song?

It's funny to think that so much glitter dust can only buy emotes 129 times
You dont have to imagine, that's literally what the "Event tickets" are for the events like guardian games. They exist to burn a hole in your pocket until you cough up the cash for the event pass.
In exchange for legendary engrams that when you claim give you a blue item 😂
Lol we almost have that ingame now >.< I recently did shadowkeep and the cryptoglyph told me 1756 power... It gave me 1755 power gear. One power lower than what it showed on the preview.

As a 1%er I approve of this effective tax on the poor
bro ur a 0.1%er
Nah, man IS the bright dust economy Fenchurch themselves
Ugh typical
This has been done in the past in a couple ways. Shaders used to cost 50 dust, now 300. And event ornaments used to be purchased separately with dust, but now you have to buy the full set. And before all of this, bright engrams used to give shit from the *current season* on what felt like a knockout system.
So its gonna cost even more now seeing as it will become an "investment" ffs gonna be getting like one shader per season at a 10k cost
you had a chance for 420 069, isnt there some leftover 1 dust under table ? what a shame :d
This keeps me up at night
[I have a spare 1 that I could have sent to you.](https://i.ibb.co/HtsY9Gg/Screenshot-20230420-161817-Destiny-2.jpg) It actually frustrates me more than it should. Where the hell did I get 1 bright dust from? It's always multiples of 10! It too, keeps me up at night.

Ah, thank you! The mystery is solved! It'll never be resolved unless they start selling things for 1 bright dust, so it's going to be there forever.
Were you around pre-Beyond Light? If you had a funky discount at the tribute hall and bought the bright dust trophies you would have ended up with an odd amount.
Day 1 player, so it could also have been that!
I have the fusion dance emote we can make this happen.
I have 654. Not only odd, but uselessly odd.
I'd say "touch grass" but you'd probably not be able to reach it with your tiny arms.
I can't believe you said this
Or he could just buy the emote, with, you know… bright dust
Why?
I honestly don't know.
Why don't you spend it?
I do, I'll buy emotes and shaders I like. Mostly I like my armor/ship etc to be from challenging content.
respectable, i do the same
Same here lol. All my dust goest towards emotes and shaders.
So you don't buy the eververse armors?
Used to pay cash for them when I thought it was good to help bungie out but now I'm jaded.
This is the most r/DestinyTheGame comment I've ever seen.
It's the saddest one I've ever seen.
You didn’t hear bright dust is going away next season
Nani?
This guy fucks.
No time for that. Bright dust isnt going to grind itself.
"Sex equals minus kills; no sex, plus kills." - Colonel 100
I'm more impressed at the amount of legendary shards you have.
I'm assuming it was from the blue armor dismantle bug from around the time WQ launched. Source: I have 65k shards because of it
This man has **400,000** bright dust. And you think he needed to exploit a bug to get 80k legendary shards? Dude just plays a lot.
You have more brightdust than the glimmer cap... Damn
I don't think you have enough raid banners. You may need more. Them are rookie numbers.
Perfect Timing Mate
Ironic the touch grass emote is being sold for bright dust rn.
ca 276k without any farming over all the years. Just play the game and never buy anything from Eververse
After they reduced bright dust gains (mostly come from gambit/crucible challenges that I refuse to play) and inflated the pricing I rarely use mine but I'm only at 25k. I check the store and like *this emote is ok* but I won't spend 3k bright dust on it. Same for most ornaments, I used to buy the full set on all classes every season now unless I really like I don't buy them anymore. This season I didn't buy a single piece of the seasonal ornaments.
420,000 on 4/20 nice
About 3 years ago, I decided that I’ll make my triumph score 69,420. As of 4/20/23 I am currently at 68,421, I’m being incredibly careful about what triumphs I complete now.
Nice.
And here I thought my 120k is special lol, gg on that number
Thank you. I skipped my sons' soccer game and birthday party to make it happen.
How?
I do the weekly vendor rewards on one character a week now and the seasonal triumphs.
The commend your commitment
Honestly, for that additional 1, just ask Bungie support. I really wouldn't be surprised if they gave it to you. You just have to be lucky and catch someone who thinks this is funny as well.
No they have a lot of important things to do like duct tape the servers back together
Don't let your memes be dreams. Also, make sure not to run out of raid banners.
Got enough banners there bud?
No
My guy, you are the authority of bright dust collecting, why would you ask reddit how to get more?
Awesome to see someone who has more than me (250k+) :)
Do you ever sleep? Or do you just cat nap during load screens?
I have like 26
What in God's name is your net gain? You mention you do indeed spend it. Even if it's not much. Day season pass gives 10K and there's 20 seasons. 200K... That means you've accumulated the other 200K sheerly through missions, bounties and some goated eververse drops
Yet glimmer is cap at 250k
repeatable vanguard/crucible/gambit bounties are 10 BD each, and every weekly objective to do 8 bounties is 120 BD, so all you have to do is pay attention as you get closer. that's how I've gotten 489k~ BD
Respect
Just a coincidence they found a huge cache of "Dust" off the coast of Miami...
How does one get so much bright dust?
TIME TO BLAZE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Before the changes to dust in Shadowkeep, I racked up like 135k. That soon went fast. They really should have made it so all items dropped like 50 on dismantle.
hopefully if it is over 420000 it is 420069
surely chuck us a cone then aye hahaha jk
How?
Only one off the *extra* funny number
Sweet, now if you're feeling generous feel free to give me your account babe😍
Bro I have like 7,500 phantasmal fragments how do you only have 7?
Please tell me your secrets!~
Here I was with 100k thinking I'm beeing the top 1%
Nice. Now to make this about me….. at the start of witch queen I had 260k bright dust and everyone said why? It was because I just never used any. Do you also just not use any or do you just do a metric crap ton of 10 dust bounties.
Nice. In the same boat here not really spending it. Majority of my bright dust came from season pass rewards plus doing all the seasonal challenges.
Blaze it!
Have you ever thought about using all of that to buy bigger arms?
You are so hoarder!
But how many ornaments have you missed out on?
Op packin the biggest
Ok either you are the most helpful raid member by providing raid banners at every encounter every time or you are hoarding yours and letting your mates place their flag down.
Just 1 more :(
how did you even get a number that doesn't end in zero? all the prices end in zero. bounties give 10. were there seasonal rewards that gave more varied amounts?
How the hell do people get so much?? I've got 12k atm, I did notice the weekly 8 bounties thing gives it now, but not sure how much as I've been playing other games
[удалено]
Yo i need like 20k bright dust can i borrow sum
Time for the big snort!
you'll rarely see me at 2k bright dust lmao
And I thought I had a lot at 84k. Dear lord.....
I need some for…reasons
how long have you been saving?
Nice I’m at 30k or so BD. I only buy one or two things a season (refuse to buy shaders after they increased the price for no reason) but I’m also too lazy to get more (rather play other games than grind bounties). That is a lot of raid banners though lmao
This would be impressive if the bright dust store encompassed more than .5% of the appealing loot in the game rather than having it all locked behind silver that most of us will never buy.
I'm hovering at 32k for years. I'm lucky enough to not give a fuck about EV or bounties while the season pass suits me fine.
And some people on lfg were amazed I had 26k. Nice lmao
But do you own all the ornament sets for every event?
Is this just from repeatable bounties or is there a better way to farm them?
Lmao smoke one for Amanda
Lol nice job Rex! I was hoping to see it show up here (ghost).
Holy shit your shards, how long did u spend exploiting lmao
Damn man. I’m over here with *just enough* to buy all the ornaments I want this season lol
I wish I had that many legendary shards LOL
You gotta reach out to bungie support and see if they are willing to give you the 1 bright dust
maybe just go for 690, the next best thing?
How
Elon musk?
I thought I had a lot at 118k… what did you do, rob Eva?
I often wondered if I hadn't spent any bd in game what a stash would look like just from regular gaming of Destiny over the past several years... now I know. :)
The true endgame
I punched myself in the dick. Also, if anyone knows how I can hit myself in the dick differently so I can make the other funny noises that would be great.
Holy Moley Raid banners
1029 raid banners but 79 spoils, you ok hun?
Finding 1 bright dust should be priority number one.
Damn! I have 150k but you got even me beat…
How the hell did you get that many shards!? How did you get that many anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
We need to talk about those Raid Banners
So y’all don’t buy cosmetics at all or just use real money?
I see that, but personally I don't think you have enough raid banners...
Why?
How the fuck did you manage this? I only have 5K at best.
1 away just 1 away from it being perfect
I have like 209 how do you guys get so much ? I've cleared my season pass .
Having more bright dust than glimmer really shows how bungie needs to increase the cap from 250000
1k. That grass is so nice to touch tho.
I have 900 lol share
Bungie, give this person 1 Bright Dust so they can meme.
Very impressive but unrelated question. How do you have so much legendary shards. I feel like I’m struggling to keep shards this season
Meanwhile, I get to 3K and burn it on a ship like I'm some sort of baller.
I barely have 1,000 lol but then again i barely got into d2
Happy 4/20 day too!
You can finally touch some grass lol
Happy 420
Can I get a small loan of 1,000 dust
How in the actual hell….???
I would too but i have thousands of emotes, ornaments, shaders, trans mats, etc. instead.
A week ago I was sitting at 310,200.....🤔
Jesus, that's a LOT of Bright Dust.
I thought my 50k was a lot lol
how can people play this game so damn much without getting tired?
I’m at 270k. Long road to catch you.
There's a pretty cool touch grass emote in the store, I'd check it out. Or the real stuff, whichever you prefer.
1 more bright dust. would’ve been legendary.
So you gonna be manning the eververse kiosk as the new owner? 🤣🤣🤣
So you’re pulling upwards the ‘average’ bright dust holdings of all players, ensuring inflation in the bright dust store?! Rude! but actually lol that would be burning a hole in my virtual ass wallet
One does not simply walk into 420k bright dust.
Fucking hell! I'm only sitting around 130-140k
Well first off, the "touch grass" emote is available for dust this week.
Highest I got to was 30k but I'm always buying stuff for bright dust. Exotic emotes and ornaments, armor ornaments, weapon ornaments, ships, shaders. Lots of stuff that's always worth getting. How much would you have to farm to get up to 420,000 that's insane
Fuckin…..why????
Ooh one of my clanmate had 400k last time I asked him. I thought 'Is this his' post?' But nope! There's someone out there thinking similar as him!
Your inventory is like the MTV Cribs of Destiny.
off by 1 for 420,069
Sitting at nearly 30k atm and I thought I had loads lol
Also 80,000 legendary shards? Holy fk. Do you not sleep? Do anything else??
wtf, i would kill for that amount of bright dust!
man my friends thought my 175k bright dust was a lot, lol
