A question for the "earners" of Destiny
I'll preface this by saying that I don't care about your preferred method of attaining gear that gets you to light level 30.
There are "earners" who claim that the only /real/ way to reach level 30 is by equipping full raid gear. I would like to know why you feel this way. If you could provide insight as to why using exotics or iron banner equipment is a lesser way to reach the highest level, I am curious to hear your reasons.
To those who would post to simply dismiss these people for their beliefs, please refrain from doing so. I'd like to get a well reasoned reply as to why they feel this way and reduce any banter arguing the point.

I'll be honest with you I've never personally encountered anyone like that that has said you're only an "earner" with straight raid gear but whoever did that is a fool. Personally however you get 30 is up to you because technically speaking you have to raid at least once to get 30 regardless. Also, Destiny is diverse, if crucible is your thing you should have every opportunity to get 30 as someone who is big on raiding and PvE. I think this should also expand into how you acquire faction items beings not everyone plays crucible frequently such as myself, though you can get faction reputation via PvE they should make a universal system in which factions can take vanguard marks as well. But reverting back to the main topic, to get 30 you have to either go hard in raids or you have to go hard in Iron Banner either one should merit the respect of other guardians if you can achieve light level 30 which for crucible players in my personal opinion is much more noteworthy beings it'll be the struggle for shards as well.
