Here's my problem with marks & iron banner (Destiny)

I'm not a fan of the current setup because the currency used to buy IB gear (legendary marks) is something that cannot be earned while playing Iron Banner. Aside from the 75 marks you can get from the weekly IB bounties, you need to go outside the IB playlist. This is a huge pain for anyone who's time is limited. I only have a few days to try and get my IB rank up, but even if I'm able to do it I won't be able to buy anything because I won't have time to run dailies as well.

Really, I think this whole Lehendary Mark system needs a substantial overhaul. It's clearly painting some players into corners where they feel like they need to play activities they wouldn't otherwise play just to earn currencies. It's no better than the split vanguard/crucible currencies we had before... not yet, at least. If they awarded some small amount of marks for strikes and crucible matches, I think that would be a big help.
