Leveling System = Trash

Youre still not reading the edit so lemme just emphasize::: [b]Edit at the top: I KNOW infusion exists. Unfortunately, infusion only takes a percentage of the total light value. I infused a 307 and got 304 out of it. Thats not efficient in the slightest.[/b] I dont mean for raids or anything, Im not complaining about LFG, Im talking about choice. With the new system, I dont get a choice of what gun I want to use. I dont get a choice of what armor I wear. Im stuck with whatever the hell gives me the highest light. Remember when the stats on your crucible gear mattered? Especially for IB? Well now youre wearing raid gear for that. Remember when the perks on your guns mattered to you? Sorry, stuck with a rocket launcher without javelin and with 1 rocket per tube because the good rocket launcher you have is too low. This needs to be changed. I'll admit I have no idea how to fix it, but it needs to be. Im stuck wearing the ugliest shit and the most useless guns because I have no other choice. Bump if you agree, maybe someone will see this and take it into consideration. The problem with infusion is that if my best secondary is a sniper and my shotgun is 290, then Id have to sacrifice my sniper for my shotgun. If infusion didnt completely destroy the infused item, itd be better. But it does. [spoiler][i]When your highest light secondary is a sidearm[/i][/spoiler]

    The "Light" system is effectively the same "level" system that Bungie had for Yr1 that we all hated and criticized with one small twist. With the old system people hated that your level was initially based on progression, but was ultimately dependant on gear from one source, making any variety non existent (plus some low tier/level players also didn't like having to raid boost their light level, but without a high light level, they basically can't raid; thx to some LFG posters). New system is 99% the same, with the small twist that after you grind enough, you might get enough garbage to infuse other legendary items up to the same level as the raid gear letting you have some variety. In practice this is flawed as, why the hell would anyone scrap my highest their gear that gives me perks for highest tier activities, for what is usually very basic armour.
