But at least for the majority, the faction marks can be earned doing both. I do feel the crucible weapons and armour need to have marks from them. My biggest gripe was that i needed pvp marks for the factions and now i can't get them because i HAVE to do pvp since i can't trade in mats anymore. If they were supposed to be pvp only, then why are most of the patrols in PvE coming from the faction representatives? By making it so you earn that factions marks using the class items, you can get them from doing anything in the game and no longer catering to pvp only.
