Please explain why everyone keeps calling this "Pay2Win"?
One argument I've see is that the sterling packages have rep boosters. So in essence, you could pop a crucible booster, rank up faster than those who don't, get faction packets and essential farm rep until you get weapons with "god rolls".
However, you could also grind for 8hours straight and still get jack shit.
In terms of the armor, those who play PvP religiously, already have armor with their preferred perks. If they happen to get a Taken armor piece with the same perks, it may not have the right int/dis/str roll.. If the stars align and it does, just infuse your already perfect gear into the taken gear, its the exact same thing, just a cosmetic change.
To me, this wont be pay to win unless they specifically sell maxed level gear with perks and stats so godly ridiculous it puts all other gear in the game to shame and the ONLY way to get it would be to buy it. Until that happens, it doesn't bother me.
If that happens, you are specifically paying for gear that is better then anything someone could grind to get. Thus you Pay for Gear that is better, thus, Pay2Win

The point I see most people are trying to make is that this is pay to win, even if it's very slightly and can lead to more drastic pay to win
