Mote of Light
From Destinypedia, the Destiny wiki
- "A brilliant spark of the Traveler's Light"
- — In-game description
A Mote of Light is an Item Guardians collect by accumulating 80,000 experience after reaching Level 40[1], opening loot chests in Patrol, decrypting Engrams, completing Bounties, dismantling gear, completing Crucible matches and Vanguard Strikes, or finishing a Public Event with Gold ranking. Xûr, Agent of the Nine also sells Motes for two Strange Coins apiece.
Motes of Light would appear once again in The Final Shape expansion as a consumable inside The Pale Heart.
Usage
Motes of Light can be traded in the Tower for several items and services:[2]
- Legendary Class Items from the Speaker (twenty-five Motes of Light and sixty Legendary Marks)
- Legendary Emblems from Eva Levante (seven Motes of Light}
- The Tempering Buff from Saladin (one Mote of Light)
- Weapon Reforges from Banshee-44 (one Mote of Light, three Weapon Parts, two hundred-fifty Glimmer)
- Infusing Legendary Weapons (one Mote of Light, ten Weapon Parts, two hundred-fifty Glimmer, and three Legendary Marks)
- Reputation (+50) for Dead Orbit, Future War Cult, and New Monarchy (five Motes of Light)
Motes of Light can also be used as a consumable as of The Taken King. Activating a Mote instantly grants 1500 XP, similar to turning in a Bounty.
Within The Final Shape expansion, Motes of Light would return again, this time as a Legendary consumable that could only be collected in a finite amount. Here, they serve the purpose of allowing the player to gain a Mote of Primordial Light in order to unlock the Exotic Auto Rifle Khvostov 7G-0X.
