MW Armor (Destiny)

The Ascendant Shards aren’t for getting up to maximizing mod slots. A lot of solid builds only cost 6-8 energy and most people will get by without that. However, if you masterwork your armor you now have +8 to every stat. That will increase any stat that ends in a 2-9, meaning you could increase a tier on every stat.

At the moment that would increase 5/6 stats on my Titan if ai were to MW. And I would open up a mod slot and retain Tier 10 Discipline. And the only slot I don’t gain is Resilience, which I already have at 5 which is pretty much the sweet-spot (for me) when it comes to crucible. So for people who are number crunching and seeking the highest efficiency for their build then they need Ascendant Shards for that 48 point stat increase (it’s basically having another piece of armor) across the board.
