How was it a mistake to make vendor armor lvl 31? What should they have done instead?
Regarding the boycott thing: Has a game this big ever been successfully boycotted? Getting that many players, and it would have to be millions, to stop playing specifically for your cause and to state it verbally seems like an insurmountable task.

The vendor armour made the VoG raid redundant to all the new players at Christmas, they should of left vendor armour below 30 so people would still do the raid, me included as I was missing a chest piece, then had VoG armour for the Crota raid. On the second note I have to agree that it would be almost impossible to get enough of the player base to leave and be vocal enough about why to exact any change with this game.

I see what you're saying. That way only if you have completed a set of raid gear in VoG can you advance to try out crota's end, at least at a competent light level. I remember debating this very thing when the dark below launched. This is my counter argument, and it everything seems to always come down to this: Doing that would widen the gap between new players and end game content significantly. If they kept doing that for each dlc, eventually this gap would be so huge that few new players would continue to play past a certain point. Their objective is to keep the game as relevant and playable to as many players (of all levels of dedication) as possible for as long as possible. It's designed to appeal to the masses. That is why they didn't do what you have described.

I do understand your argument but Bungie could of left nightfall at 28 (I think it was) and make a higher tier mode at 30. At least for the first twelve months, I mean someone can pick this game up when the HoW comes out and, if Bungie stick to this model, go and do that raid when they level up vendor gear without seeing the other two raids. Also to be completely honest the VoG raid is still the better raid, or at least it is to me, with better mechanics during the boss fights. Obviously I can't say that by September this year they shouldn't of then made it whee players can jump up to the levels of the rest of the community, just maybe of made the three raids that we would have by that point still relevant for the players that start during the first twelve months.
