Yep. Without active clan people you can't do the raids and a big part of progression is closed to you. You have to go back to lfg and search for open slots and competent players. Making the heroic strikes drop 5 below your LL is just plain evil. Having hard fights is NICE!, but I want to progress as a reward! The shitty streamer community that makes tons of money from playing 24*7 ruined an already terrible game. LL is a meaningless number. Doing the activities should grant equipment and mods that make the task easier or get you specialised! smh Bungie devs are stupid evil and asshats.
