new and returning players are often at a disadvantage in PVE then loyal players who play consistently. while yes loyal payers should be rewarded for putting in their time, I'm not against that but why should new lights be denied the chance of any kind of meta. it's very disheartening to new lights and returning lights knowing they can't be as good as other players and that fosters thoughts "of why play when I can't get the weapons that will make my build work." and it almost made me want to leave again but I stuck through for personal reasons but its bungie when do they listen gripes.
