Loot:
The loot system in the Crucible is terrible, no matter how well you do in a game you very rarely get anything at all. With this system you get something no matter how good or poorly you do.

800-1500 points or below level 8: Uncommon item/Resources

2000-2500 points: Legendary item/Ascendant materials/Exotic (.1% chance)

Rare should be the quality limit at least but as you move up in score your odds of getting legendaries or exotic gear increases.
