Are you talking about farming mats or PVP? Because you've just proven mine, and a lot of other peoples point. YOU don't like running around in circles for hundreds??? of mats (ive no idea where you get this number, each upgrade is like 16, that's nothing, do it every time a damage upgrade clocks over) MYSELF and OTHERS don't like running around in circles for hundreds (it actually is this much) of crucible marks and rep. YOU have been given a way to avoid what YOU don't like while MYSELF and OTHERS have had a way taken away. What makes YOUR cause anymore worthy? There is no reason, aside from a small amount of rep+glimmer gain, why both parties shouldn't be happy. Even the rep and glimmer gains are too low to be any real worry. If they are worried about it then add a rep cap each week, raise the level needed to get the next lot of gear that comes with the DLC. Remove the rep/glimmer from the exchange. So many ways to manage it. Come on, we players cant be the only ones to see this, if theres something we have missed then Bungie really needs to let people know.
