Use your stuff instead of wanting to hoard There no issue

Game will be dead after final shape anyways.

Well, no. It does the opposite, actually. But that's not a good thing.... When you max out on Ascendant Shards, your additional Ascedent Shard goes nowhere, AND, you will have times where you go from max to running out as that is such a small margin, forcing you to grind it back to max, and again, no longer earning them. It is very common to need all of them, there is times you get several new exotics to Masterwork and sometimes you'll even run out and still need more for Masterworking, which causes you to go out and grind more Nightfalls in hopes you get some, though inconsistently. You also are being screwed because if you are max and you want to stop them from disappearing, you upgrade a Exotic for 3, break it down for 1, then down the road you're going to have to play more to recover those 2 you lost. The point of keeping low caps, is to keep artificial gameplay. Think about it this way, if you never give a poor man a decent ability to actually make money, he will stay poor. If you cap the max he can earn, you give yourself insurance he will have to work more if he needs more. It is the only reason for this, otherwise caps would have been removed years ago and not just increased by the smallest possible amount to shut us up for a while. This isn't a good thing for us, obviously cause it's ridiculous and unfair. But it also isn't good for Bungie because things like deceptive business tactics simply to artifically boost time spent logged in, adds the iceberg that eventually tips, and you find a new game to play.

When legendary shard is the only thing you have .....

I think it's a frustrating change only meant to change player engagement I mean playtime. They think it will give you a reason to do something like public events... to earn glimmer or the currency they are replacing shards with. They've changed currencies over and over, and never really makes the game better. When they add strange coins back in, I'll bet it's just to try and get more people to run Nightfalls. With Bungie not playing the game or talking with someone that plays the game they have no idea what a reasonable cap is, once set they are stuck with it for 6 months or longer before they think about adjusting it. It sucks when you are working on builds and run out of glimmer... It's not like you are going to go grind for glimmer. Same sort of deal. Also, they should always tell you the cap before you hit it. lt should say 1/99 engrams at each venter. 1/5 keys, etc... The main problem with caps is they don't consider if you play multiple characters. For instance, the season keys are capped at 5, which is fine if you play one character, but if you play 3 that's 1.6 for each character, which is pretty lame. I just want to play the game and be able to do what I want to do. I'm not gonna go out and grind keys or glimmer if they are not there when I want them. This is a lot like sunsetting where some people are for or against it and it could make the game pretty shitty for long-time players or it may not matter. It all depends on how it's done. Generally, I think the caps have been extremely low and don't get the considerations they should. What's next? cores, bright dust?
