Exotic shards are going to be a problem for some hardcore players

So this morning after gambling on engrams for one specific item I was able to upgrade every exotic thing I have and now have 9 spare shards that I won't have any use for going forward. I will only start to collect them as I dismantle duplicate and triplicate exotics and unneeded stuff from engram gambling sessions. I propose that xur be able to convert one shard into 6 motes of light. So if you have enough to buy 4 engrams and don't get what you want you can roll a 5th time for free. This wouldn't break the current exchange rate for strange coins for motes of light and exotic shards. Adding more economic exchange to xur will bring a whole new meaning to the word xurned.

    Great idea, I have over 45 shards now trying to get the ram/purifier robbed over the past few weeks. Spent over 350 motes trying to get the robes to no avail, but of course this week he trolls me and sells them. So now I'm dropping motes again on helmet engrams and still no ram. My guess now is that he will have the ram next week. I don't want this excess of exotic shards and wish there was something to use them on. Some kind of exchange like you suggested. Maybe even exchange for a decent amount of glimmer/xp, treasure keys, trials coins/boons? Some kind of new raid/nightfall buff where you swap exotic shards for a chance% increase on exotic drops
