Glimmer is a programmable matter that was once used as a source of power during the Golden Age and is now the main currency of The City.[1][2] Glimmer is used to purchase many items and services from vendors in the Tower.[2]
Players can earn Glimmer in many ways, including defeating Majors and Ultras in all game modes, for each completed mission and Crucible win, dismantling weapons and equipment, and for exchanging items found in the field with vendors.[2][3][4] Consuming Black Wax Idol, Blue Polyphage, Ether Seeds and Resupply Codes, temporarily boosts Glimmer gained from killing Hive, Vex, Fallen and Cabal Majors and Ultras, respectively. Glimmer can also be found in various chests hidden across the map in caves and rooms.
A player's supply of Glimmer is shared among all of that player's Guardians.[2] The maximum amount of Glimmer that can be held in a player's inventory is 25,000. If a player hits the Glimmer cap, Master Rahool will refuse to take House Banners, Silken Codices, Axiomatic Beads, or Network Keys when visited.
