As a semi-casual player (I only play on weekends) I don't understand how some of the changes are meant to help me access the new content, particularly the raid. I am a level 28 and finally completed the Vault of Glass 2 weeks ago with my friends. It was during this raid that I obtained Red Death from the chest in the Gorgon's Maze and I have since spent all my time levelling it. I only have one piece of raid gear and I expect it will take me a while until I reach level 30 so I don't understand how forcing me to reset my one exotic weapon will help me experience the endgame of the forthcoming DLC. I am not a community "cry baby" and this is the first post I have made, I have played the game from day one and have had a lot of fun playing it with my friends. I'm just frustrated because it has taken me so long to be able to complete the first set of endgame content and I don't know why I am being punished for having an exotic weapon. I just want to play and have fun. That is all. I don't want to be forced into an endless grind just so the limited content in the game go's further. I know no one from Bungie will read this and even if they did I doubt one voice will change anything but after playing Halo for the majority of my childhood and supporting Bungie in everything they do I don't appreciate being slapped in the face like this.
