So I recently finished grinding enough Crucible Marks to buy some legendary armor for my Hunter. While I do not hate the Crucible, I DID hate grinding out these marks. I did not enjoy fighting in the Crucible on my Hunter, and as soon as I had enough I stopped playing.
This got me thinking about Vanguard Marks and Crucible Marks. Crucible Marks can be used pretty widely in the Tower, while Vanguard marks are pretty exclusive to... well, the Vanguard. Obvious it sounds, I know, but I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one sitting on a bunch of unused Vanguard marks cause there is only one place they can be used.
I know Crucible players complain about having to do the raid to get raid gear, and while that was a valid point for a while, Bungie has introduced a loophole with the upcoming Iron Banner armor pieces. So my question/plea- can we see some more love for PvE players? I would love to rock some Future War Cult or Dead Orbit armor, but I would love even more to buy them with Vanguard marks. I mean you earn Rep for them no matter what you're doing, shouldn't you be able to buy them no matter what too? Perhaps a mark exchange, like the upgrade materials? What do you guys think about this?

You can always trade in upgrade material to the crucible quartermaster. It doesn't get you much but every bit helps. Not to mention it also helps towards your crucible rank.
