Just an FYI really, for anyone who hadn't noticed.

In previous releases of Destiny, it was possible to take 50 units of any of the harvest-able materials [Spinmental from the Cosmodrime, Helium Coils from the Moon, etc] and go to Roni 55-30 (the Vanguard Quartermaster) and trade your collected materials for Vanguard Marks. This was handy if, like me, you were saving up for Legendary weaponry, since it was an easy way to earn towards the ~ 150 you'd need...

In the latest patch to Destiny, Bungie have changed this around. Now, instead of buying your Spinmetal, Roni 55-30 *sells* it to you... I didn't notice the difference, and ended up spending hard-earned Vanguard Marks buying something I already had in abundance...

Well: more fool me for not paying enough attention to the changes brought by the mod.

However, I thought it worth posting to ensure nobody else falls into the same trap. I'm also a bit miffed at Bungie for making such a sh##ty change to the game - what is the point of doing that, if not to *increase* the drudging grind that players are subjected to if they want to get decent hardware...

Sigh....
