That could be a step they use in the future, but Destiny will be a changing game until Destiny 2 comes out. I for one like the changes because I hated farming for materials. Waste of time. I only do Nightfall, Weekly Heroic, the raid, and occasionally Crucible nowadays so I don't want to be bothered by having to farm materials. That and I just bought Vanguard gear because that worked better with PvE.
