I think I speak for a majority of players when I say farming for spinmetal, spirit bloom or any of the other materials gets a bit dull after a while and at the same time we're involuntarily gathering huge numbers of weapon parts and class materials.
Why not swap these two types of materials around, so that you only need natural materials in the first stage and when you begin using ascendant shards/energy its alongside weapon parts or class materials. Of course you'd probably want to charge more materials per upgrade, maybe 50-100 per exotic upgrade or something like that?
This not only makes upgrading your equipment less grindy but it also gives a use to glimmer, as players can spend it to get weapon/class materials from dismantling gear bought from the vanguards/banshee.
Thoughts on this idea?
