The style and a lot of the ideas are from a reddit post I can't seem to be able to find again... So if you're reading this and you posted a similar orbiter : THANKS SO MUCH for giving me the motivation to do something about my godawful orbiter, and I love what you did with the duviri flower pots. (Took me a while to understand the structure lol)
Yeah, I was talking about the cost in the zariman. They are very expensive when I don't even have all the zariman arcanes. (they aren't all very appealing to bother farming them).
I'm also finding zariman reputation the hardest to grind, PoE and Fortuna are relatively straightforward with all the sources of it - fishing, material trade-ins, bounties - but Zariman is mostly just searching for hidden voidplumes, doing content "normally" doesn't give you a lot of it. It's not that bad but it is kinda annoying when cost of decorative items is in tens of thousands.
How is it hard to grind? its like the easiest there is. Pick the exterminate BOUNTY, grab like ocucor and Wisp or something, roomba the whole map in like 2 min, do the side objective and kill an angel. Takes maybe 10 min tops? you get 1 pinion + 2 quills which IIRC is 10k standing, throw in some you find in the mission and theres half the standing cap, do a second bounty and now you are rep capped.
