RE: LuminalLightining. Log out with your profile, not your character, in the setting menu of Destiny.

Does anyone know if this is able to be tracked somewhere? Or is it something that just pops up? I know occasionally you have a bar pop up along the bottom, but I haven't seen that since my first couple pieces dismantled

Use of Weapons

When you acquire gear through-out the game you will have some extra gear when you replace old gear with new gear.

To dismantle a piece of gear just Hold X on it while hovering over it. Make sure to dismantle the bad gear and not the better gear.

Gear isn't very visible in this game so when you are fighting enemies make sure to run over their body to collect anything they drop like cash, ammo, or for this achievement and most important, the gear.

There are achievements that are buggy. It has to be Microsoft's problem because the same thing is happening on all kinds of Xbox One games, I believe mainly when its an online matchmaking game.

Confirmed. This is the standard Xbox achievements don't unlock for hours/days after you have met the requirements.

I got the 360 version on the dashboard and it came with the One version. I had a couple of cheevos not pop switched to my 360 version load the same character and then it pops. Then any cheevos done on the 360 version i switch to my one load the character and get the cheevos.

Here's my video guide for this as well as the 'Lucky 7s' and 'Decryptologist' achievement

To get this achievement simply dismantle 50 pieces of armor or weapons. To do this simply play the game as normal (campaign OR multiplayer) and then access your character menu and move your cursor over the item you wish to dismantle then simply hold x to dismantle the item. Also, you can hold RT to compare the item to the one you have currently equipped (making it much easier to tell whether you should keep or dismantle items).

*** DESTINY GLITCHED ACHIEVEMENTS FIX ***
Destiny Achievements are VERY glitchy. In order to unlock achievements
you have already met the requirements for you must cycle your connection
to the Destiny servers. The easiest way to do this is as follows;
ENTER the game > Press START > LOGOUT > SWITCH PROFILE >
CHOOSE your GAMERTAG > SELECT your CHARACTER > POP goes the cheevo

Hope this helps!
Happy gaming

Ok so you get weapons and armor from chests,rewards for complteting stuff, or you can just buy them at the tower. As you get more armor and weapons you have to get rid of your old stuff to make room. The way you dismantle stuff is by pressing cn_start and then you hover over what you wanna get rid off and hold cn_X. Hope this was helpfulsmile

This will come naturally as you play the game so try not to worry too much about it.

Dismantling items is accomplished by opening your inventory (Options). From here you can see what you have equipped, as well as any other items you have collected along the way.

To dismantle an item, simply hold your cursor overtop of it and hold down Square. After a second or so the item will be dismantled and you will awarded Glimmer (as well as other materials when you break down anything higher than white gear).

I personally got this on my first playthrough around Level 9 but I'm sure it will be different for everyone.

To dismantle an item, simply hold X over the desired item in your inventory screen. It will disappear, awarding you with some Glimmer and possibly materials for higher level gear if it was a rarer item with any upgrades unlocked. This tracks over multiple characters and will unlock after the 50th dismantle combined.

During and after every mission, strike, raid, Prison of Elders, or after some Crucible matches, you will acquire new weapons or armor. Any old weapons or armor that a new piece of equipment replaces or a new piece of equipment that isn’t as good as what you currently use can be dismantled to acquire weapon parts or armor pieces. Like with the engrams, there is no need to grind this out. This will come over time.
