Bungie, I am not sure what long term plans are in the mix, but I have a couple ideas. First allow us to use motes to purchase ascendant material from the Speaker... He is kind of worthless right now other than a few cut scenes. Secondly, let us use motes to buy a "light infused core" from the speaker to upgrade our old legendary weapons at the gunsmith (he is worthless after level 20 other that selling rare fusions to finish pocket infinity, and buy synthesis)... I like Praedeth's revenge and TDYK, and that is just for starters... Just something more to do with the motes please.
