4 days until TTK drops, and an inevitable decision is looming and need to be dealt with soon: vault cleanup to make room for new weapons (for example: besides a pre-patch nearly full vault of weapons, I also have ~40 weapons sitting at postmaster to deal with) What HoW weapons to keep / hunt? Crucible Playbook reddit has a list: www.reddit.com/r/CruciblePlaybook/comments/3k8z6q/ttk_weapon_breakdown/ ( spreadsheet direct link, check all tabs. It also provides a preview of upcoming TTK equivalent). Anything else? Anybody has a list for Vanilla game and TDB?

I would say, wait until the dust settles. you get double vault space. I think most players can hold on to everything for the first week or so. Se what the meta looks like. It is too early to really tell imho. I am not dismantling anything. And if I absolutely have too, it might be exotics I rarely used over legendaries (exotic blueprints).
(AKA, who would ever use the exotic slot on a heavy weapon? I don't need that gjallarhorn, just give me these awesome looking sunbreakers)
Still a nice link though!

I am definitely going to hold onto stuff until I absolutely need to dismantle, but I foresee needing space for green and even white TTK weapons, not to mention purple, new exotic, raid legendary, as well as field test weapons. In other words: Can't hold onto 40 weapons in postmaster for long . When the time comes, it would be nice to have a list on what to keep vs. what to dismantle / infuse (On that note: DO NOT dismantle anything until post TTK because infuse might be a better way to dispose them). The "4 days left" comment is a bit misleading. It is specifically the time limit for last chance "hunting" down the weapons that might be worthy. I am rephrasing the subject.

I really don't think you have to vault green weapons... They will soon be replaced by purples anyway.
I'll keep some in my inventory for various elemental damage, but I am not going to collect a "complete set" in greens (3 rockets, 3 lmg, 3 snipers etc etc)

No reason to keep any TTK whites/greens/blues any longer than the amount of time it takes to replace them, so I wouldn't worry about that too much. Based on that link there's not really much worth hanging on to because the new TTK weapons are generally going to be better than anything from year 1 in each weapon archtype anyway. As far as I'm concerned the only weapons worth keeping are all exotics, all god roll HoW PvP weapons, and any year 1 raid guns you like or want to save for sentimental reasons. My list is more or less this:
Exotics: All of them PvP-only: Her Benevolence, Matador 64, Radegast's, BTRD, Summoner, Exile's Curse, Give/Take, maybe a couple other random selections that I've been hanging on to that look like they might be decent in PvP Raid/PoE: Fatebringer, Vision, Fang, Word of Crota, Shadow of Veils, Found Verdict, Black Hammer, Abyss Defiant, Praetorian Foil, Swordbreaker, Atheon's Epilogue, Praedyth's Other/Sentimental: Payment VI, Murmur, Vestian Dynasty, LDR 5001, Felwinter's
By my count that's around 45-50 that I'll be holding on to, with plenty of those being replaced once a TTK equivalent or upgrade comes along.

In case it is not clear, my plan is much more conservative (as always ) I am going to hold onto everything until I need the space, and then I'll dispose (dismantle or infuse) the ones starting at the least desired. Considering the sheer amount of weapons accumulated in my vault and at the postmaster, I will be doing this very soon. Meanwhile, there are HoW weapons that I don't already have that might be worth getting in the next 4 days before they are gone forever.

FYI, how to aquire the HoW weapons on the spreadsheet's "shortlist", if you would like to get them in the next 4 days:
1) Gheleon's Demise: Crucible match reward (probably will return in IB after TTK) 2) NL Shadow 701X: Crucible match reward 3) Hopscotch Pilgrim: Strike playlists (consensus is that this weapon is no longer good after weapon balance) 4) Red Hand IX: New Monarchy 5) Silimar's Wrath: Crucible Match reward (probably will return in IB after TTK) 6) Unwilling Soul-09: Dead Orbit 7) Her Benevolence: PoE 8) Subtle Nudge DN7: Crucible Quartermaster 9) Party Crasher +1: Crucible reward, will return in TTK 10) Dry Rot 32: PoE, Crucible match reward 11) Give/Take Equation: Vanguard Quartermaster 12) Pax Totalus EPR8: Crucible Quartermaster 13) Radegast's Fury: Crucible match reward (probably will return in IB after TTK) 14) Jolder's Hammer: Crucible match reward (probably will return in IB after TTK) 15) Unending Deluge III: PoE, Strike playlist
Among these weapons, the following will be quite different from their equivalent in TTK, therefore really worth considering now:
i) Red Hand IX (vs. TTK: "Trading aim assist and magazine for some stability, lots of sidegrades") ii) Unwilling Soul-09 (vs. TTK: "Different guns, the US can be an smg, the Arminius is a better hose") iii) Pax Totalus EPR8 (vs. TTK" "Give up reload speed for stability, still nice to see a return")
