How is this even a reward for one of the hardest activities in the game? Ascendant shards..... and only 9 of them as well. At least when I get rewarded 7 strange coins I can use them because they have some value/are needed now. Ascendant shards are uselsss for anyone 30+ and not wanted by anyone who has completed the nightfall. This should really be removed as a reward from the nightfall.
I guess ill add these to my collection of shards. 270 and counting.

I got some worthless vanguard arc shotgun for my first nightfall of the week this week. Dismayed that my "shit week, good week" cycle was broken (last week was beyond shit for drops for me- nothing from the raid, nothing from the nightfalls of worth) I went and popped the first chest on Crota on the three toons and came back with no land beyond, Mida 2.0 and some energy, so the shit week good week cycle is still going. Except normally on the good weeks my last drop is the shit one, not the first. So my advice is, if your first couple of drops of the week are shit, just don't play as you are wasting your time, come back next week.
