A lot of people feel like the faction gear is a waste since they get forced into wearing raid armor for level 30 anyway. If you want to run a discipline/strength build and all your raid armor doesn't have any, you're out of luck. I know for crucible you can wear pretty much whatever you want, but with Iron Banner 2.0 coming, it'd be nice to have the chance for different stats on your gear. The speaker could offer the opportunity to reroll the stats on your raid gear for like, 20 motes of light. That'd be okay, right?
