    I'm pretty sure they all last the same, or at least almost the same.
    Control usually lasts the shortest if a team dominates flags.

      The reason I ask is because I absolutely cannot stand the PVP aspect in the game (yes I tried it in the beta and just didn't like it) and refuse to play it,so I was wondering if you can get the marks by doing the same thing as you would for the Vanguard.

      As long as you wear the little towel on your belt you will get points with that faction doing anything. Strikes, story missions whatever.

      You don't have to play PvP.

            They need to up the Crucible marks you earn. This game is just too time consuming to be honest. I could see this being a good thing if this was the only game you owned, but for me this game is just a boring chore to do trying to find legendary and exotic stuff. Chore to find stuff that contains light. A chore to get marks and special coins to buy stuff.

            At this pace, it will be 2015 before I have enough marks and special coins to buy anything.

              True, but to buy the legendary equipment for the factions I believe it takes crucible marks.

                Yeah, you might be right.

                  Yeah, which is silly, you can get everything but crucible marks outside the crucible, but you stop earning vanguard marks after 100. That really limits what you can do if you don't care for pvp and hit your weekly vanguard mark limit, unless of course you don't care to lose out on rewards.

                  This isn't a free to play game anyway, why the progression limits?

                    Ahh Legendary Engrams. The bane of my existence.

                    On the flip side, I have almost a full set of exotic and legendary gear for when I decide to level my Warlock up.

                    Already got (well... will have the exotic pulse rifle when I stop being lazy and finish up the bounty) an exotic pulse rifle, legendary sniper rifle, legendary helmet, legendary chest and exotic gloves for that level 9 character. On the flip side, it will be nice to go straight from level 19 to level ~26 (and almost fully geared) on it once I stop being lazy and get some levels.

                    Because, for better or worse, that's how progression is in every modern MMO-style game.

                      You can get Crucible marks outside the crucible by selling materials to the Crucible vendors. This also gains you rep so if you don't wanna play pvp but still want Crucible gear you can farm mats to sell.

                        Excellent. I'm close to Dead Orbit Rank 2, will be buying some legendary armor as soon as I hit it.
