Done the nightfall every week and so far the only good thing i've gotten out of it was a level 300 helmet, which was instantly infused. Since then everything has been lower light than the stuff i'm using with a poor selection of perks. Bearing in mind most of my gear is around 295 light this is frustrating, as it means i'm almost purely reliant on the raid to rank up my next 15 light levels. I think making all nightfall drops 300 would be a good bridge between the raid and normal play and it means that players who are unable to raid aren't gonna get their asses kicked in IB by guardians 20 levels above them.
It wouldn't be OP either. If I was lucky enough to get one of each item from the nightfall at 300 light, it would take me 8 weeks to get my character to level 300 and that's not including the ghost and artifact! I just think this would be a nice touch and it would give people a reason to do the nightfall other than the fleeting chance of a 310 exotic or a good weapon roll.
Thoughts everyone?

Edited by Minuteman: 10/14/2015 1:09:35 AMI agree, the main disappointment about the Nightfall rewards so far has been the low light level. There should be more drops at the 300+ light level. I actually wouldn't care if the drops were blue gear if they were 300+ light. There are plenty of legendary drops and even exotic drops at 280-290 light, but getting something at 300+ light to infuse onto the gear you like is crazy hard outside of doing the raid.
