How did you get cruc marks if you never played PvP? I mean the added time farming for marks is a waste of time imo. Much faster and less boring to just play pvp

Because while farming you can also complete patrol missions, bounties, and public events. Can hit plenty of daily PvE activities at once instead of playing the same repetitive PvP maps seeing nothing but Suros, and shotguns/fusion rifles. I play PvP when I need to for my exotic bounties, during IB, etc. but I would much rather turn in materials for crucible marks than grind out matches just to get gear that I would break down for materials.

You complain about PvP being repetitive but he specifically only does one strike and how many times can you patrol and it not be just as boring as PvP? At least in PvP there is a challenge which makes it fresh. For patrol I know where all enemies spawn, in what area to look for all farming materials, and what patrols and public events will be available. How is that not as or more boring?

One strike? Pretty sure I do all of them randomly when I select that tiger strike playlist. And farming may also be repetitive, but there is a whole lot more of the world to break up the monotony than the same tiny PvP maps over and over.

He wants Bungie to make a patrol only game I think which is absurd. His headline states "PvE" yet he hasn't even fully explored that side of the game and is gonna complain about it.
-
Ok. My mistake then. And yes, doing nothing at all but patrols would be quite boring.

Understand but the amount of time to farm material for 5 marks is crazy. I can't believe people would waste that much time in their life to get marks when it's quicker to just play PvP.

Me too, and I am terrible at PVP but I tag along with my friends, and actually IB made me a much better player too. It just seemed crazy to turn in that many materials for so little marks and rep. Especially before materials were so easy to get and you needed to farm them just to upgrade everything. I would have never traded them for a few measly marks, I'd just grind out the pvp and get it over with.
-
It's actually not crazy, if you know the farming routes you can get the mats in a rather short span of time. You also don't really get that many marks for finishing a crucible match so either way in terms of time spent is a wash. It takes forever to get Crucible marks no matter what method you use(d).
-
While doing bounties and patrol you can easily get the 50 without even trying. 2 birds 1 stone. The problem is all the vendors that only take crucible marks, while not really selling crucible gear. They have crucible vendors already.
