I'm running into the same problem, I feel like I've risen to the (Light) level of my incompetence.
I can clear Expert pretty easily, I can do Solo Master pretty easily, but I'm a liability in Master level Fireteam Ops; I die more than my other teammates, I kill less than my other teammates, I'm definitely not holding my own - but Master level is where Bungie wants me to play to keep advancing.
I don't know if this is a problem per se, or if I've just reached the end of my journey for this Expansion pack. Running Expert level content at 300+ feels like a waste of time, while running Master level Fireteam ops feels like an impossibility. (I know Master level isn't impossible, I've muddled through a few thanks to quick rezzes from teammates, but I'm definitely out of my depth.)
Really, I'm not sure what to do, now. Bungie really wants me in Master level, but I'm really not a Master level player; I don't want to stop playing, but it feels like I've gone as far as I can go.
Edit: To be clear, this isn't about wanting a handout, it's about wanting a place to play. If I'm better than Expert level, but not good enough for Master level, that doesn't leave a lot of stuff for me to do; if the rewards in Expert aren't rewarding, and the rewards in Master aren't accessible (due to my skill, admittedly) then I've kind of done all I can for the moment. Someone else suggested I level my other characters through the campaign, so I'll probably do that, it's just frustrating that my main is at the end of the line for the time being.
Edit 2: I think Bungie needs to add another tier of difficulty between Expert and Master, something for the people who can breeze through Expert but struggle at higher levels. The jump in difficulty from Expert to Master is significant, especially for middling players like myself; Bungie did a good job easing players from Normal to Advanced, and from Advanced to Expert, but Expert to Master feels like a chasm.

I've been using Nothing Manacles with Devour and Repulsor Brace for survivability, it's been working reasonably well for Master Solo Ops, but yeah, it doesn't do much in Fireteam Ops. My main Prismatic build is Felwinter's Helm, which again, works okay for Expert, but not for Master, I'm too squishy to get close to enemies. Maybe I'll try Prismatic Osmiomancy? That usually holds its own, pretty good crowd control and stuff.
