Dear Bungie, please fix your drop rates for weapons engrams, or make armor materials exchangeable for weapons parts. The struggle is truly real. Other options could include making weapons parts available for purchase from The Gunsmith or Vanguard Quartermaster for glimmer/motes/ marks. My infusion of weapons has been entirely hamstrung by this one shortage. In the past there have been a few ways around this, such as going flawless in Trials of Osiris and then spamming weapon purchases from Vance for 500 glimmer per weapon and then dismantling them. Farming glimmer, lather, rinse, repeat. That option is also gone in year two. Please consider this issue and concoct a work around. Thanks for listening, your loyal subject and slave, totalnah.
*******UPDATE******** According to the most recent weekly update, Banshee will now be selling weapons parts in the tower for glimmer. This will take effect with the November update. Rejoice guardians, and thank you to those of you who had thoughtful feedback and suggestions. You all were part of the effort to make this possible.

When you look at the cost of infusing, it's quite extreme - first you must sacrifice a weapon with higher light, and then you pay glimmer, weapons parts, a mote of light, and legendary marks - and to add insult to injury - you won't get the full Light level for the gun you're dismantling - it's like this weird average system that I'm still pretty unclear about - this same system applies for armor as well - I say we just drop the weapons parts and armor parts - that would solve a whole lot of hassle....for those folks who've gathered thousands of parts/armor bits - there's already a system in place to trade that in for rep... Also, where's the system that'll allow me to trade in my spinmetal or wormspore - I delete piles of that sh*t and get nothing for it...
