I ran vault of glass with a friend. And my friend invited his friends, which to me are randoms, one of his friends was a level 34 and we come to find out that he has never done vault of glass, witch really irritated me because when I played Destiny you needed to play Vault of glass to obtain a higher level
You should not be a level 34 if you didn't do any raids.
Edit1: Wow didn't expect that many replies, I'm seeing a lot of people agreeing with me on this.
Edit 2 : Wow 200 replies and most of them positive, thank you all for supporting my opinion.
Edit 3 : why should us day one players have to get to a certain level doing Vault of glass and crota end not too mentioned the endless grinding of material, we had to go to every individual planet to collect our materials to upgrade our weapons and amour and now Newbs can simply achieve high rank with less then no effort. "Unfair"
Edit 4 : for people telling me shut up, or stop crying and or its unfair for people who have jobs and don't have the time to invest in the game well that's not my problem. The fact is people are hitting level 34 way to quickly with little to no effort and that show no detication to the game and no experience. I remember the early days where you saw a level 30 and you could tell he work his ass of for his gear I was one of those people, now you see level 34' s every where with the assumption Wow he bought his gear from the vanguard.
Edit 5 : thank you all for agreeing with me on this, tho I understand some people don't even do raids and go their own separate ways, their has to be a harder way on leveling up your gear. Yes I mean it when I say people hit 34 with less to no effort because having a high level friend carry you trough campaign on all hard difficulties is not working your ass off.

back in my day blah blah blah.....this one time at band camp blah blah blah...get off my lawn blah blah blah

While I agree I'm pretty sure the level cap will be harder to reach again in TTK
-
Yes to raids but honestly they don't have matchmaking soooo some ppl will be lucked out

Edited by footshot747: 7/29/2015 3:46:04 AMSome are getting to 34 in a week or two. Are you kidding me?

Grow up dude, im a day one player & i couldn't care less if a new player hits max level in a day.

This game has 2 game modes...pvp & pve, making ppl play a certain game mode that they dont like is just retarded. Level 34 should be available in both & rightfully is. I'm currently playing Thorn banner to get the gear because it looks better than raid gear. I'm a pve player & i hate pvp just so you know im not being biased. You think raids are hard? IB is simply disgusting but im willing to do it because i want the gear & i fully deserve it for tolerating the bullshit. -blam!- anyone that has a problem with it imo.
-
I agree with you hopefully ttk will be like that back on the days
-
i would like it if you had to get lv30 through vog before going up, then 32 through crota ect
-
I agree 100%. TMN (too many noobs)
-
Nah... I'm tired of the grind for shit. If HOW was harder to get to 34 I would be a 33 still
-
1 ReplyHonestly. People should still have get to 30 through vault of glass then get to 32 from Crota then 34 from HoW. That'd make the game much more in depth for newer players. And it would give everyone experience with the various parts of the game.
-
6 RepliesI completely agree with this. I wish vanguard gear brought you up to level 28 max and you had to get a full set of vog gear to hit 30. Because at that point, you could run level 28 poe and still couldn't get etheric light and would be forced to do crota to level up high enough so you could take on the 32 poe and the nightfall. That not only prolongs the game, but makes it fair for the older players and returns the game to how it was.

Endgame levels of gearing is only required for the harder endgame activities. VoG/CE hard mode, PoE lv35, and to a lesser extent Ib/ToO. My point with this statment is for the players that do not raid, or choose not to raid, or dont want to make time for it etc, any reason you can think of. Those players have no need of being max level, since all content is still able to be done. I do honestly think that a resource like Etheric Light is a good idea, as you can choose what to wear, but it needs to be harder to get. Maybe not VoG gear drops, but deffinatly harder than CE gear drops and ToO/PoE/IB Etheric light rewards. I just dont know of the balance between RNG and 100%. Being max level means you should have put some work in to obtain it, if you want it go get it, not this 'Vendor gear is better than raid gear' nonsense. But thats just my opinion, and im just a person on the internet.

Only a small portion of players raid. It would be bad to require doing previous raids to unlock newer story maps and strikes.
-
Definetly, level 34 is too easy to obtain. Maybe if you get moments of triumph you can get to 34? I think that would be fair.

I agree. I have a level 34 titan and haven't played a single raid with her

So true. Bump

Personally, I think if you're a 34 that has never done a raid then you're most likely still new to the game. Getting to level 34 is the easy part of the game lol. If you ask me, you will never become a useful player unless you know all the basic aspects of pve AND pvp. People can do or not do what they want, but don't expect experienced players like us to carry you through it even if you're a 34. The year one players have learned to master the raids by now since we had NO choice to complete them several times. That's only MY opinion though. Let the insults begin.

Well truth of the matter is, Bungie wants newcomers to feel welcomed, not alienate them, which by the way alienates their longtime players anyway.

1 ReplyMultiple paths is better. Content should be optional and you shouldn't be forced down linear channels.

It should be raid/iron banner/osiris/prison. There should only be etheric light for weapons and vog/crota gear.
