They need to have a way to make ascendant shards and energy convertable into eachother like how you use radiants wiyh eris. They also need to make it so that you can combine like 10+ of these into the next higher teir. So 10 ascendant shards plus 2500 glimmer=1 radiant shard.

Never going to happen. There are lots of guys like me who have 200 or 300 of the ascendant materials. They specifically created radiant materials to slow the progress of people with lots of extra ascendant materials.
