[b]75% of all the legendaries are gated behind pvp rep / crucible marks[/b]
[b]Almost all of the exotic bounties have difficult pvp steps[/b]
[i]Thorn – Exotic Handgun -- Kill Guardians in the Crucible using void damage. Deaths slow your progress greatly!
Bad Juju – Exotic Pulse Rifle -- Fight in the Crucible and obtain 10,000 points and have a kill to death ratio above 1-1
Invective – Shotgun -- Fight in the Crucible and achieve 25 more kills than deaths.
Fate of All Fools – Exotic Scout Rifle -- Multiple PvP steps[/i]
[b]Every special event that has occurred is occurring or is scheduled to occur is pvp oriented[/b]
[i]Salvage - PvP
Combined Arms - PvP
Queen's Wrath - PvP/PvE
Iron Banner - PvP[/i]
I thought Queen's bounty was going to be a pure pve event, but alas 3 out of the 4 bounties for today are, you guessed it, pvp bounties.
Why the extreme bias in favor of pvp when this game was touted as a shared world, rpg style loot, exploration heavy, "play your way" kind of game?
If you're going to have all these pvp events and do nothing for the pvers you're cutting yourselves off at the knees, and the description of the game offered by Bungie feels misleading.
[b]Possible solutions:[/b]
Give bounties dual objectives, 1 that's pvp centric and 1 that's pve centric and allow the player to choose which way to finish the bounties.
Open up all of the vendors to both currencies.
I understand that recycling PvP which kind of creates its own content is easier than creating something new for PvE, but I'd be happy even with a recycled content PvE event mixed in with all of the PvP events. Queen event is the best attempt at that thus far, but all of the other events are purely focused on PvP and it just feels as though the PvE is being jilted.

Nothing in the pve game should ever require you to pvp For example, exotic bounties, if there are ANY steps that make you do pve and then pvp, then you done -blam!-ed it up. I only hope I can get the queens rep to level 3 doing only pve bounties. Otherwise, again, bungie, you done -blam!-ed it up. Not everyone likes pvp. I especially hate doing it on consoles.
