This is what is so great about Destiny, and few people realize it. Bungie has designed a level progression system in which it's possible to stand a chance, no matter what level you are. Earning levels gains players meaningful powers and abilities, but none those powers and abilities are over-powered, and they each take skill to use and master. It is clear that Bungie did not want lvl 30s to be impervious to lvl 2s, as most would expect to see in other MMO style games. If the game operated this way, winning and losing would boil down to nothing more than who grinded more at the end of the day. It has taken me a while to see the big picture, but as a long time fan, I can say that I love Destiny, and I am excited for the future; so long as Bungie sticks to their guns about what they know is right for the game.

Man I am with you on this, I love destiny and the gameplay, and as I play the crucible more I get better. But this was advertised as a level enabled event, and so it should play as one. Some of us put in time and effort to grind the marks and gear to eventually be able to show it off where it matters. No level 4,6 19,20 should be able to hang with a level 26 and up, remember when you first reached 26 and jumped into the night fall only to realize you were doing almost no damage to the adds, and it was dam near impossible to take down their shields, well that is what the iron banner is supposed to be. Its suppose to be me you and our gear, and its not, its just control where you earn rep for Iron banner, at a chance to get as a warlock 1 piece of armor.

The idea of being able to do practically no damage to higher level players may seem cool at first; it did to me, but think about what the game play would actually be like if this were the case.
-
Only, that's how the crucible is normally. This is the ONE event where your dedication to leveling up is supposed to pay off.

Edited by SoloPopo: 10/9/2014 3:40:24 PMLeveling doesn't turn you into an unstoppable hulk like you were hoping for, but it does pay off. Do you really want to be standing in place, trading bullets with your opponent for who knows how long, praying that you have more armor than he does? Iron banner would be nothing but a dick showing contest. "Lets see who can take more bullets to the face!" "I bet I can cause I'm better!"

I doubt it would be anything like that.

How exactly do you envision it.
-
How it is now, with slight level advantages. There are far too many variables for what you're suggesting.

Thank you for renewing my hope. Stay strong friend

You too man

Sweet armor by the way

Sweet Legendary Rocket launcher. I'm jelly.

It's possible to stand a chance no matter your level? So, a level 4 warlock should be able to solo Atheon with enough skill, right?

Don't be stupid, we are talking about PvP.

You did not specify.

The thread topic is Iron Banner and I'm referring to players attacking each other in my post.

Well I think he was banking on people you know using common sense ...
