Lol, I'm sitting on 40+ shards because the damn raid won't give me raid gear and only gives me weapons and shards. Also the daily keeps giving me them too. Same with Strange Coins. I need Energy/Raid Armor.

THOSE SHARDS WOULD BE A GOD SEND FOR ME. I WOULD GLADLY TAKE THAT.
I'M THE OPPOSITE, I HAVE TONS OF WEAPONS AND ARMOR THAT ARE STARVING FOR ENERGY AND SHARDS. GOT MOST UPGRADES UNLOCKED ALREADY, JUST NEED THE SHARDS OR ENERGY TO UPGRADE LEVEL UP
A good way to get shards too is to build up vanguard/crucible marks and then buy armor from them and break them down. This is assuming you've unlocked both to level 2 and 3 for weapons. I did that a few weeks ago to get to level 29. Also doing duplicate exotic bounties and then breaking them down. It's happened to me 3+ times. And by far the most effective is getting bad luck in the raid and getting shards/energy over and over again. I wish I was in your position. You've got the hard part out of the way having all armor/weapons you need.
YEA I'VE DONE THE BREAK DOWN METHOD A FEW TIMES. THE PROBLEM IS YOU GOTTA GRIND FOR THE MARKS REQUIRED TO PURCHASE THE GEAR TO BREAK DOWN. CRUCIBLE MARKS ISN'T BAD SINCE I LOVE CRUCIBLE AND PLAY IT ALOT BUT THE VANGUARD IS PRETTY MUCH TORTURE FOR ME. THAT'S WHY WHEN I SAW THE 25 STRIKES NEEDED FOR BAD JUJU, I SAID "NOPE, I WON'T EVER HAVE THAT GUN"

PRETTY MUCH MY BEST METHOD IS FARMING PUBLIC EVENTS AND THE DAILY STORY. CAN BE SO DRAINING THOUGH WHEN YOU DON'T GET ANYTHING AT THE END OF A PUBLIC EVENT BUT USUALLY I GET ONE ASCENDENT SHARD OR ASCENDENT ENERGY UPON COMPLETION.
