2 for losses and 3 for victories. Not 5-7. Each crucible match is about 10-12 minutes on average. 5-6 matches an hour. Max marks? 18. 60 minutes farming, completing bounties and public events? 150 mats, 3 or 4 blue engrams, 20 weapon parts or armor parts and a couple shards/energies. Nobody seems to have noticed how bungie dumped a ton more mats in world in the update before thanksgiving. Why would they have done that if they were going to make them almost useless a week later? I don't know, maybe you do. I personally play both, PvE and PvP, but the option was there if I was a few marks shy of getting the gear or weapon I wanted without having to waste a half hour in the crucible playing Firebase Delphi for the 6th time in a row. For all of you who keep complaining about the PvErs complaining about having to play the crucible, remember this when 3 members on your crucible team are doing the congo line while you're getting your butts handed to you because of them. Nobody likes being told they have to play a game the way someone else does. How would the PvPers love having to complete a 6 mission bounty before they were allowed to play a match in the crucible? Every day. Exactly. Oh what an uproar that would be.
