I agree with all you have said. I cannot believe the horrible drop rates, not to mention the horrible gear that is that is dropping. Why on earth are you going to have the same items dropping as those being sold, particularly when the sold items suck to begin with? Completely idiotic, especially since the rolls suck. One thing you should have added is that because level advantages are enabled, I basically have to run with equipment that I really don't want to use. My max light level is 305, and I have to use a specific setup in order to get to 305. So I hardly changed guns or armor at all during the entire grind to go from 0 to level 5. This really sucked, and it made the experience even less enjoyable. This really needs to be looked at. I also felt bad for all the 280 to 290-ish light players getting their teeth kicked in by higher light levels. Well I felt bad, but also irritated when they would be on my team and throw up a nice 2 kills with 20 deaths. If I was in their shoes, I would have just skipped IB all together (in fact, I might just do that anyways next time if changes aren't made), and I am sure many did. I really enjoyed Destiny for a long time, and I have the hours put in to prove it, but it just feels like that time is coming to an end. I have been a staunch supporter, but many of the recent decisions by Bungie are leading me to believe that our best interests are just not in mind. Their constant tinkering hardly ever results in changes for the better. I honestly wonder if they play their game at all? I assure you they don't play it more than me, or others in this community, so why in the hell won't they listen to us, the experts?
