Let us buy Ascendant Materials with Motes of Light!
I tell you, it is a real pain in the arse getting the Ascendant Materials I need to upgrade my Legendary & Exotic gear. Public Events and Daily Heroic Story aren't enough... so I came up with a better idea on how we could get them.
Right now, there are only two uses for Motes of Light; either buy pretty decorations from your character from the Speaker, or gamble on Exotic engrams with Xur.
But what if we could buy Ascendant Materials with Motes of Light?
The way I imagined it was that you talk to the Speaker, and exchange [b]5 Mote of Light[/b] for either [b]2 Ascendant Energy[/b] or [b]2 Ascendant Shard.[/b] Simple enough. What do you think?

Ascendant materials should cost 20 motes of light for 2 energy or shards. That way there's still a chance the exotic engram, which costs 23 motes of light, will yield 3 energy or shards when dismantled. Motes of light are pretty easy to come by and ascendant materials are supposed to be difficult to find or else the game loses pretty much all meaning. Vault of Glass (and hopefully raids in general) is what gets you the most ascendant materials, and it needs to stay that way. You 120 people might be quick to vote yes to this, but you'd also be quick to get bored of this game if ascendant materials were being handed out like donuts.
