EDIT #1 BEGIN - Summary for those who missed the OP long a$$ complaint:
Removal of material exchange for vendor reputation and marks generated this post.
Using a Day 1 feature NOT exploit to access and buy legendary gear and avoid PvP for personal reasons.
EDIT #1 END
First we get a ton of mods to fix the PvP whining resulting in PvE nerfs, then 2 PvP events to 1 PvE but still more PvE nerfs.
Now take away more access to vendor weapons and armor to those of us who HATE PvP with a passion. I was fine farming for material and purchase Crucible items even though it was daunting. Never complained since I could avoid PvP.
What the heck was the logic behind removing material exchange for Crucible rep and marks?
I never saw any posts or complaints about resource exchange. If anything, it kept PvP haters like me away from ruining PvP games even more than they are already.
If this game was advertised as a PvP centric game with a scarce PvE element that would take a back seat to everything PvP I would have passed on it like I did with Titanfall and other PvP games.
Either bring back the material exchange for Crucible marks and rep, open all vendors to accept both currencies or I'll just play PvP to piss as many off as possible to obtain a K/D of 0.00.
If your going to ruin PvE, I'll do my part to ruin PvP as best that I can. Maybe I'll even be stoked to play Iron Banner 3.0 and shoot for the #1 spot in the worst PvP of all time.
Just as you have people that hate PvE, from reading the posts for the past couple of months, you have more that hate PvP.
Please tell us now that Destiny is 80% PvP and 20% PvE so we know where you stand.
All I know is after waiting and hoping Bungie would bring some love to PvE, all we got was a third and fourth kick in the balls.
After the expansion is released and there is still no resolution to this horrible PvE treatment, I'll waste my extra time playing even more like a complete noob in PvP just to piss as many people off as possible.
I'll highly recommend that others who feel the same do too.
If this was just "another" unintended side effect from a patch I may feel bad for ranting. If not, enjoy the last $ you'll see from me or anyone else who feels the same way.
If there is some great addition in the expansion to nullify this rant I truly apologize in advance.
BTW, it might help to post a list of the 100 worst PvP Guardians in your app. I would like to try and make the top 10 of that list.

After reviewing your stats that explains a lot. Apparently all you do is patrol. I bet the thorn bounty wouldn't be your cup of tea.
-
obviously your problem isnt the game its your skills lol
-
Grab a shotgun you'll be alright
-
It provides a use for me Vanguard and Crucible Marks now.

Edited by Minuteman: 12/2/2014 7:51:02 AMDude, I play mostly Crucible, and from my perspective it seems like the game showers raiders/PvE players with level 30 raid gear and more ascendant shards and energy than you need to upgrade things. Since the game launched, I can count the number of ascendant shards and energy I've gotten from the the Crucible RNG on one hand. It's not even possible to get your character to level 30 by playing in the Crucible alone, but you can get to level 30 by doing nothing but raiding. Please stop whining. Destiny is a paradise for PvE players who like to form their own fireteams and do raids, while it treats PvP players and solo players who rely on matchmaking like second class citizens.

Would be faster to do 2-3 pvp matches for 2-3 marks each, instead of farming 50 mats for 5 marks. Also to have 0.00 k/d you would have to not die as well ( but I don't think you can go negative so yea.)
-
I hated farming mats. I don't play pvp. I'm LOVING the new system to buy mats
-
I think great idea to keep your K/D low as possible... You may get some exotic drops
-
In almost every game that has PvP and PvE, you cant get PvP gear or weapons by playing PvE so be happy you had the chance to do it while you could. [spoiler]If you don't PvP, you don't deserve the PvP weapons. Simple.[/spoiler]
-
So they're not adding PvE content with the new DLC? Wow they really are only focused on PvP!
-
Just play PvP its honestly not that bad. 2 marks if you lose 3 if you win. Just get 2 of your friends to play skirmish. I hate clash and control though.
-
It should be obvious by now bungie only cares about PvP. All the weapon nerfs were because PvP people complained about how op everything is.
-
Thought you could still exchange mats for marks...?
-
I couldn't help but lol at this. Please tell me you're trollin' op.

Edited by atpbx1: 12/2/2014 7:29:29 AMI dont understand this post. Why on earth would you grind cruicible rep as a PvE player? Just playing strikes and leveling Cryptard has given me multiple sets of unwanted cruicible gear for all three classes as well as plenty of cruicble weapons for sharding.
-
Was this all about Bungie taking out the trading materials for PvP marks. I'm confused.
-
Im gonna see how long it takes for bungie to change it back. I am gonna play crucible alot now, my loadout will be all greens, i will never use supers or fire a single shot. You really dont want me in pvp but what the hell, it,ll be good for the lol,s. I wonder how many exotics a 0.00 kd will get me, should be interesting.
-
Youre probably going to get an exotic by getting last place in pvp
-
I hate PvP and I am still not rank 3 in crucible rep but I don't care. I don't need their trashy weapons anyway! *sits in a dark corner shining my Mythoclast* "One day baby. One day"

Edited by HonchoCoka: 12/2/2014 7:06:29 AMI dont get what your saying because you can exchange 10 vanguard marks i believe for 20 materials of your choice since the new patch Edit: i see what your saying now and i think they removed it because you no longer have to grind for mats since you can purchase them
-
Just AFK, if I get you on my team, I'll carry you so you can get that extra mark :)
