So I was in a fireteam earlier today, because this one guy wanted me to help him finish an Exotic bounty. He, a Level 31, was desperate for help, so I thought I'd help out by grabbing a few more Level 30s from Tower and then we could go try-- however when we got to orbit, one of the guys said that I shouldn't help on this mission, as I was only a Level 29 and we were going to be on an Epic modifier for the Summoning Pits (we were trying to get Thorn). I completely understood why the guy would feel that way; I wouldn't want a lower level player on a raid with us.
However, I just don't understand. Do higher level players (ie 30 and 31) do THAT much more damage than closer, yet lower level players (ie 29)? I'm still new to the cooperative scene on Destiny, so I was just wondering.
Does it have anything to do with the Level Advantages mentioned with Crucible?

Level advantages are only active in iron banner, not in the crucible. And if you're skilled, it doesn't really matter, because as I recall, that special version of the summoning pits is level 26. He was an elitist douche who thought being level 30 or 31 made him better than you, it would not have mattered. Unless you suck, but in such a situation, your level won't save you,
