Method to buy exotic shards

So not sure if other people are in the same boat but I've been struggling to get exotic shards since infusion came into play and xur stopped selling exotic shards. I recently tapped out my ability to buy exotics at the kiosk with marks and figured I'd be grinding out 3 of coins or trying to save up strange coins to buy exotics when xur comes around.

So I came across this method by accident and I'm not sure if it is well known in the community but it solved my problem with exotic shard infusion and I wanted to get the word out to anyone in the same situation.

Here is the Method:

Prereqs: 1 exotic shard, 2750 glimmer, 6 motes of light

Step 1: Buy an exotic heavy weapon(rocket launcher or machine gun) from the kiosk for 1 exotic shard and 2500 glimmer

Step 2: Buy and Consume a Heavy Telemetry from the Gunsmith (250 Glimmer and lasts for 30 min). You can also equip a class item with an increase upgrade rate (Rockets or Machine Gun) for the same result.

Step 3: Burn 6 motes of light with the new heavy exotic equipped - don't upgrade the perks, just put motes of light into the gun

Step 4: Dismantle exotic for 2 exotic shards + either weapon parts or motes of light

Step 5: Rinse and repeat until you run out of glimmer or motes

The method allows you to basically buy exotic shards for 2750 glimmer and 6 motes of light from the kiosk and opens up exotic infusion.

One more tip from the community. While doing this you can equip blue armor or weapons and dismantle to make up some of the Glimmer and Mote of light debt. Or Equip armor/weapons that are not leveled to kill two birds with one stone and get the Mote XP on those items as well.

Hope this helps
