The "Next Generation" of level 34's

It dissapoints me. It really does. I feel like the people who have recently become level 34 guardians do not live up to the expectations of the first people to become level 34 (people who became level 34 in the first week of the HoW). The first 34's carves the path for the new ones. They figured out how to beat Urrox. They figured out how to beat Qodron. They figured out how to beat Skolas! I was level 34 in the first week of HoW and I thought that the people who would soon become 34 would take our strategies. Yet I was proven wrong. I have found several 34's who haven't even done a normal VoG. I was doing hard mode VoG with a full team of 34's. Full 34's couldn't get past Atheon. I don't understand how they think they will be able to be Skolas who is in a level 35 fight that lasts for 30+ minutes when they can't beat a level 30 fight that lasts 5-10 minutes. I'm starting to wish that bungie have made it harder to level up to 34 so that people who don't deserve to be 34 would still be 30-34. Oh well. Just a little rant.

  • People join in late, it happens. Teach them how to do things the right way and who knows you might make a new friend or two.

    • This is exactly why I play with my clan and not these new guys. They don't know wth they're doing. If I told you my exp. with this newb we picked up you'd be furious. Guy was a complete moron, I'm still pissed off from it too lol.

      • The relics are dying. The new generations don't know how to use it. What a shame.

        • VoG Norm LFG -Must be 34 -Must have Gjallarhorn -Experienced Relic Holder This is the kind of garbage that causes me to dislike newer players. Not necessarily because they got it easier, faster, and cheaper. No. It's because they've been online for a few weeks, having completed less than 1/4 of the game's activities, but want to run around like they know everything about everything as they're getting mopped up by lvl 26 mobs. Loot Cave? Sniping from the Hobgoblin towers in the Templar's Well? Atheon Push? Lamp launching? Crota Glitch? Forget grimoire score. These are the questions I ask when I need to know if the players I'm running with are as experienced as they say.

          • I agree; guardians used to have to farm forever to get materials needed to upgrade weapons/armor and then by luck get lvl 30 gear which took forever to get (not really) but noobs already have access to lvl 36 gear. This game really shows the importance of player who have been playing from the beginning.

            What an ass you are, so entitled aren't you. So because you have no life, and played 24/7 you should be venerated? Get the Fack out.

            • I don't know...I'm a lone wolf player/dad, and don't have time/desire to raid; my Destiny experience is purely PVP, and that's how I like it. It makes me proud that I slogged through two IB's to (finally) hit 34 on my toon. I'm seriously. I should be able to hit 34 my way and have equal footing for the only part of Destiny (or any game, really) that I care for: PVP--specifically the banner, where that extra level gives me or someone else the slight edge in a duel with all other stats being equal. So I appreciate that Bungie accommodated me through Lord Saladin. That being said, I know I don't have raid chops and don't attempt to join them for the exact reasons you stated...I don't want to bog down a team. I am happy to run around the Crucible; but honestly am also happy to be level 34 at last.

              • There is definitely a lot of "fake" 34's out there. Thats why i have to wear my flawless trials emblem to separate myself from all the phonies.

                  • Got 3015 Grimoire and only have 1 level 34 so far. STFU. I got a higher -blam!-ing Grimoire than you and I stopped playing in October only to come back in June after HoW launch. That's over 7 months of absence. This game shits on veteran players.

                    • Are you kidding me? Why should it be harder for people who don't have the ability to make friends or communicate? Way to be one sided and ignorant the people who are level 34, yes I can agree that most of them basically cheated to be where they are but everyone shouldn't be punished just because you want them to "earn" it. This game feels like a chore not a game and Bungie will never get better let alone fix the lag fest. Most of the people at level 34 are laggy or lag switchers.

                        I have no desire to do the raids on hard, or ever tackle Skolas. Super difficult activities just aren't fun to me. :\ I only just recently beat the regular Vault of Glass and I feel that that's enough for me. I'm guessing the prison of elders difficulties will only go up as they raise the level cap, and I kind of hope that doesn't happen, so that when I'm past those levels I can finally tackle those activities and have fun with it instead of stressing over it. But that's just me. :\ This is also the first time I've ever hit max level, thanks to the armor cores from level 32 prison of elders. I hope there are non-raid alternatives to hit max level in the future expansions as well. Even if I stand out as someone who isn't good at the raids.

                      • I feel exactly the same way you do. I have all these friends who think they are amazing at the game because they are level 34. I was a first week level 34 also, it was very fun trying to figure out all the bosses.

                      • The comparison of first week 34's to post first week 34's isn't the same as those who struggled with VoG to obtain level 30, and those who were given 30 with Crota expansion.

                        • I don't care for pvp. I played this game solo up to level 32. Then I was stuck, the inability to get level 33-34 unless I got on reddit to find teammates. Why should I have to do that to get max level? Why isn't there a matchmaking system. Sure, just have my IRL friends play with me. I am not going to force them to buy the game, help them get to level 32 in 2 weeks or so, and say "Yay I get to be max level now". That sounds like such a bore to me. And the friends that did buy it quit because of the first expansions anyway, so I can't get them to play either. I don't want to just make random friends over the interent. I found that usually, if you do 1 thing wrong, just ONE, you are the worst player in history and no one wants to talk to you.

                          • That happened to me the other day. I was doing normal vog fresh because my friend was doing it and they needed one more person and when we finished activating the spire, there was one 34 who couldn't even get to the Templars well. Once he finally made it he and his friend kept dying and we asked why and they said they have never even done it!! Define you should of been harder to get to 34

                          • I agree, they made leveling up FAR too easy. It's good to a point. Like a buddy of mine finally got the game right when HoW dropped&his a 34 but from carrying him in campaign,then strikes, N PoE(where he will legit have 3-8Kills) n now raids-Zero Supp./Oracle kills=Vex 1st run LoL But it's to the point where on forums LFG U don't know what kind of player UR getting when they say34. Unlike in TDB where you knew if a guy was a 32, and UR running Crøta he knew what to do most likely....a lot of new 34's like my buddy still wont have a Shotgun or sniper somehow. It's not helping them just bc they can hit light lvl fast, long term it's only gonna hurt themselves n teammates..

                          • Some people are just bad at the game or are lazy. I got to level 34 second week of HOW and found all those bosses you've listed to be a ten minute battle besides Skolas. I don't t think it's the new level 34s I just think it's the people who are paired with those who get carried especially in VOG that don't know what they're doing because they don't t pay attention or no one has had time to teach them how to run relic, which is easy to run that makes things bad especially is POE. Gotta have balance
