[quote]What makes Crucible gear PvP gear?[/quote] Um...maybe because the Crucible is...I don't know...PVP? There are no special stats for standard Crucible because it's "Level Advantages Disabled". Which bears the question, since you already know the difference between Crucible and Vanguard gear is cosmetic at best...why do you want the stuff from PVP content? If you do want it, it seems a bit too logical that you'd have to play PVP content to earn the rep to get it. I see no reason why Bungie has to bend to your whim. If you don't want to do what's required, why should you get the spoils from it?
