Some people that love and play this game have lives and not a lot of time to try and get a raid group together. If your a paying customer you should be able to hit 30 raid or no raid. I raid and like everyone else all I've gotten are shards and a shader. They could set the story up to reach level 30, actually there are a lot of things they could do but haven't yet. Oh and for the RECORD BAD JUJU NEEDS THAT BUFF I have it maxed to 300 and it's the weakest weapon I've used yet. Honestly wish the strangers rifle was a level 30 rifle or level 28 it's the best looking and best shooting pulse rifle I used in the game. Everyone have fun, and keep your fingers crossed that Bungie will listen to the ones making them money.
