I'll preface this by saying that I don't care about your preferred method of attaining gear that gets you to light level 30. There are "earners" who claim that the only /real/ way to reach level 30 is by equipping full raid gear. I would like to know why you feel this way. If you could provide insight as to why using exotics or iron banner equipment is a lesser way to reach the highest level, I am curious to hear your reasons. To those who would post to simply dismiss these people for their beliefs, please refrain from doing so. I'd like to get a well reasoned reply as to why they feel this way and reduce any banter arguing the point.
