I spent ages saving Crucible marks to buy the Vanquisher Auto Rifle from New Monarchy, and eventually got it the other day and was really happy as getting 150 Crucible marks takes ages! I always have a New Monarchy cloak on when gaining rep, but my rewards have been so bad thus far. The very day after spending those 150 crucible marks on the Vanquisher, I level up New Monarchy again and am awarded with the Vanquisher...with the same mods bar one. Instead of Spray and play it had melee kills increase reload speed. Needless to say I feel like I've wasted a lot of time in the Crucible these past weeks now, pretty mad about that one.
