If I'm reading the news post correctly...Any one with T5 gear will have a substantial advantage over anyone else...it's going to create a new level of toxic elitism and pressure to perform and hard gatekeeping in LFG and clans
Carrying services will be booming...
And that's not even including the PVP problem of the same gun having wildly different stats and capabilities...if you don't have T5 you will just get out played regardless as your opponent will have all tactical advantages through gear alone...so...any bets on when the hard nerf post launch is?

I wouldn't be surprised if Bungie starts a carrying service themselves. They already pay the content creators. I also think that having tier 5 won't really matter much in PvP as much as the stat changes. That is if you match players that aren't cheating. The cheating in PvP makes all of this moot.
