I have almost completed this task. I acquired my first piece of LL 400 gear today from a strike bounty. I am almost there. I can do this. I went up 3 LL. The grind is almost complete. And I have done this without doing a single trials of osiris or raid ever. (also, I have a suspicion that the strike elite gear can get you tier 12 stats) Just sharing how my day went. EDIT: I'm required to say I'm trending. .-. Hey top of the list! ;) EDIT AGAIN: Also making a community defender montage, see this: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/221417812
