Either provide a path for IB gear to get to max light lvl 32 or don't let raid players come in and throw their weight around in IB as a 32.
Enough with the double standards!
What I am saying is that IB should be capped at whatever level you can reach by playing PvP only.
To everyone saying play both. It still doesn't solve the fact that PvE is the only path to max light level. That is why I laugh when everyone accuses Bungie of catering to PvP just because there is no Queen's Wrath event.

Well apparently instead of debating people have come up with the epic advice of:
"Git good scrub."
Truly I am humbled for not realizing I was supposed to try to be good at the game. Also never realized that I had the option of playing games other than Destiny. Thank you all!
Good first step for Bungie to offer the gloves at max light for the current event!

I would be ok with IB vendor selling + 36 Light gear, but I wouldn't expect it until right before HoW drops. And this gear should require radiant shards to upgrade, which just throws the player back into the raid (I would be very frustrated if IB gear was + 36 Light but used ascendant shards). Also, the lvl difference between 31 and 32 is negligible. I was a 29 going against 30s pre-DLC, and I still did as ok as I ever do. I never noticeably lost a fight that I normally would've won. On a side note, why do PvP players care about level cap? The only reason to hit 32 is if you're trying to do hard CE. Lvl 31 will get you through all the other content in the game and makes no difference in normal Crucible. Iron Banner is where you go to show off your best gear, it's not inherently more "competitive" than normal PvP.
