Other than that, the whole point of it is to force people to grind PvP to earn it. That keeps more people in PvP for longer. They are basically a trophy at this point, since gear progression in PvP has basically been abolished.
Well in a perfect world morale makes pvp gear better than pve in den+FL. Since you get a lot of marks and not nearly enough exp to match it means if you want pvp gear for your rank you buy the i80-90 stuff instead of the i110 gear which is the current top end. It's not the case, so the rank system is just forcing grinds where it shouldn't be.
