It's not quicker... I can easily get 50 mats in the time it takes a control match start and finish. A loss in crucible is what? 2 marks. A win 3? And in that same amount of time I got 50 mats for 5? I'm not saying one or the other is bad. Cuz I play both PvP and PvE... Love both.. But last night. Need marks to buy boots for a character. Went farmed for an hour. Traded them for marks. Now have a 29 Warlock. Today come on after patch. Was happy to see the knew feature. It let me buy material to level up more. But it sucked finding out I could no longer trade mats for marks... I relied heavily on that on the account of. I have limited playing time...
