Momentarely the only way to get a good level is getting legendary or exotic gear. The Legendary gear is almost always purchased threw the various vendors at the tower. What lacking is their visual distinction from each other, they all look alike or verry similiar. Sometimes you just take the one that has the best stats even though your Blue or Green helmet has the looks you want to wear.
Introducing the "Wardrobe system"
This is not entirly my idea since I seen it in Guild Wars 2, but I really think Destiny could benefit from this.
The wardrobe system lets you take an armor piece that you equiped,, but not the look that you want it to have. and turn that around in the look you do want!
Here is how it go's, you get a piece of armor White, Green, Blue or Purple, you equipt it, and the look of that armor piece gets put into the "Wardrobe"
The look of of the armor piece is saved and later can be brought back at a certain vendor / spot in the tower (Perhaps call it "The Armory"). At this place you can see all the designs you've collected and choose a design which you would like on the armor you're currenly wearing. For a mote of light, secret coin, or glimmer, thats up to Bungie. This way you can have the look of an armor piece that is White, Green, Blue or Purple, but with the stats of your current armor piece that you are using.
This way you'll get to see way more different looking Guardians and have way more fun customizing your own guardian, and become legend.
Sincerly,
Mandain

So were definitly getting attention so thank you for that guys, now it's up to Bungie to do something with this. Perhaps [b]DeeJ [/b] can give us a hint if some sort of system is in the works?

We just need more variety. Most look the same.
