These actually reward you with more than some gamerscore, XP! See below for the list of challenges, or you can find them in-game by tabbing over in your quest log.

Want your Brick to go faster? It's easy! Just go berserk, hit the menu, then when you return you will have canceled your berserk, but not the speed bonus! This only works as host unfortunately. Check the video out to see it in action.

Backpack getting a little too heavy? Starting your own legendary shop?

Now that everyone is starting to get their 50s, the next thought on everyone's mind is, "Where do I get the guns?".

Simply exit to the menu and reload once you hit them and repeat.

The description reads "[360][Shield][Purple][48] PNG-55005 Harmonious Enduring Shield (BEST IN WORLD)" and I've yet to see anyone refute. You thought you were the man when you found that 1200 power shield in the market? Get on this guy's level. That or trade him the crazy things he is asking for in exchange. Check the pics/stats after the jump.
