The last I did that I got 5 marks for 50 materials.
Sure, the exchange rate sucked though.
That is exactly why that option should've been improved. Not removed.
And trading excess vanguard marks you can only use for pretty much one set of gear from the vanguards, to buy materials that you could've then exchanged for crucible marks would've been a significant improvement in itself.
And if it was "totally useless" and you'd never do it, why are you GLAD they got rid of it? What negative impact did said "useless" option have on your game? I guess you're one of those people who get some enjoyment every time another players get a more negative experience... What a great attitude to have.
The overall "gaming community" these days.. SMH

Im glad they got rid of it so noobs would no longer waist their time on that partiular exploit. And how is it fair to the players who do pvp for their pvp fraction , when someone who has never pvp get the same rewards? Also did u even think about the rep exploit that would have ruined rep exp rates if they would have left it their?

Edited by Sarcasm83: 12/4/2014 3:52:33 AMHow was that an "exploit" though? It was an option. But ok, ok - I see what you're saying; You think that all faction gear IS actually 100% for PvP players only and not a single PvE player is worthy of attaining said gear. Fine. But can you atleast agree that it would be about time they (bungie) added at least something more for PvE players to purchase with Vanguard marks, as right now the way it goes is: PvE side = Vanguard vendor, 2 armor sets, Queen's vendor, 1 armor set PvP side = Crucible vendor, 2 armor sets. Dead Orbit vendor, 2 armor sets, FWC vendor, 2 armor sets, New Monarchy vendor, 2 armor sets, Iron Banner vendor, 2 armor sets..... and alternatively PvP side also has a sh!t-ton of more weapons to be purchased with crucible marks. Even though the game was advertised HEAVILY with the whole Co-op and teamwork angle, PvP is where it's at. And it doesn't really help at all that there are several players like you, who say things are perfect as it is and think everyone who's not playing PvP are "noobs" who don't "deserve to buy said gear" ... Oh well.. So be it. But me being able to get some gear on PvE wouldn't impact you negatively in ANY way, as I'm not about to rival you. Ever. PvE player that I am.
