What to do with unwanted rivens
I recently started doing sorties, and now I’m fast running out of riven slots. I’d say about half of the rivens I’ve gotten have been for decent or great weapons, but the other half are either garbage or just weird weapons I likely will never use.
I’m not really prepared to do tridolons and hope for the transmuter thing, so that’s not an option. But I’m not a big trader either, though I’m open to giving it a shot.
What do you guys typically do to free up riven slots?
Use a transmuter, its a guaranteed drop from a tricap.
Other than that sell them as "trash" rivens to others who are going to break them down into new rivens anyway. Or just keep them and keep buying riven slots for 60p for 3 slots.
Early on, before I got more into trading, I would dissolve into endo any riven that I figured I would just never use. Then I got into trading, and would trade them. Now I have more riven transmuters than I will likely ever be able to use, and just transmute them.
I trade them with other players that might want them.
Hint, hint, hint...
This will probably start a riot or get a ton of downvotes, but I just dissolve them. I try to sell them as trash prices but if I'm sitting at max capacity for awhile, I make room to get more. I could do transmuters but I've done nothing on the plains except for the Gara quest and just haven't gotten around to them.
