Deej I love to play destiny and I've met a lot of cool people ( never been in a clan before ) but I have to say this does not address the issue of faction armor have a meaningful purpose. You could have a mote of light system to upgrade non raid gear armor to 30 light so players could grind there way 30 or just make what others have referred vanity slots to get the look that you want with the gear you earned or I saw a vault coin idea that seemed legit or xur could sell raid gear for 60 strange coins for chest, boots or gloves and 120 for helmets and I understand you have destiny you want us to achieve but why do we all have take the same journey?
