This is not a complaint as much as a suggestion and warning. I've broken down a dozen purples and one exotic for materials but why are they so hard to get? For the exotic ( mask of the 3rd man unleveled) I got two lousy shards and won't do that again. I just don't get why these materials are being made so scarce by Bungie. Suggestions • weekly hard mission for materials not strange coins all the time • a once a week merchant that sells them • they drop from mission bosses. Not sure if VoG'ers get these materials a lot but I'm not doing a multi hour raid just for them.
