Faction Packages
Whenever you’re out doing Strikes or other public events and patrols, use a Vanguard rep booster and equip a class item that increases your rep gains. This will allow you to gain faction rep quickly, and you’ll be able to claim faction packages with each rank that you gain. If you haven’t joined a faction already (Dead Orbit, New Monarchy, and Future War Cult), be sure to do so before starting your level grind in Rise of Iron. The faction packages will give you a choice between weapons, armor, and chroma. Always go with the gear package that you have a lower light level for. So if you have more armor pieces with lower light level than your weapons, choose the armor faction package to bring your armor light level up.
All faction packages have a chance of rewarding you with a new Ghost and Artifact too, so it’s always worth cashing these in with your reputation gains.
