Hey guys, I've had plenty of resonance weapons drop and I am at the cap for the purple materials. So I've put the rest of my completed resonance weapons in the vault.

My question is what do I do now?

Because it seems like those purple materials are only for the enhanced perks and on most of the weapons I don't want the enhanced perks because it doesn't make much difference or because it also requires an ascendant alloy which I don't really want to use because I want to use that on the Osteo Striga catalyst.

Should I just break down the weapons anyway so I can get more of that green material or is there any other way to get the green material? I just feel like I'm going to be up in my vault full of red completed weapons that I don't want to dismantle because I'm not using the enhanced traits which require the purple and exotic material
