The struggle of a 31 in the hard raid.
I have a 32 warlock and a 31 hunter. my warlock finds groups fairly easily but its like pulling teeth trying to get a group for my hunter. Even now I have the hard crota cp and everyone wants 32 only. Thats ridiculous. I get the perks of being 32. extra resistance and damage. But I'd much rather an experienced 31 (which I am) than a 32 who is garbage. 31's are capable of doing the raid. I've done it before and I've been in groups with 31's. Frankly, I'm not the sword bearer so being a 31 doesn't make that much of a difference. I go invisible so nothing ever kills me (save for oversoul) and have maxed out ice breaker to snipe boomers. RNGesus has not blessed me with gjallahorn even though I've been playing since day 1. I missed week 2 when xur sold it. I've also been in a group of ALL 32s that failed because they sucked. made me wonder how they got 32 to begin with. I guess my point is that just because someone is a 31 doesn't mean they can't do the raid and just because someone is 32 doesn't mean they are better. I wish people would be more open minded.
Edit 1: I'm on 360

If we are talking about just the crota checkpoint then having a couple of 31s really isn't that bad as long as they have leveled weapons. The current strats using the ledge for that fight make it easy for everyone to not die. The same strat makes it simple for all 5 people to dps crota at once so bringing him down with 31s really isn't horrible. However the rest of the raid is a real struggle with 31s especially at the bridge where 31s get destroyed very quickly by all the enemies. The struggle is real and I can't blame anyone for choosing to have all 32s in their fire team. You are [b]not [/b]entitled to do the hard raid on your 31 just because you beat it a few times. Teams looking for only 32s is not closed minded nor an elitst attitude it's simply the best strategy to actually complete the raid the quickest. I don't care who you are how skilled you may be , being 2 levels below all the enemies is not good for the team and you are indeed getting carried. Yes I do recognize there are some 32s who lack skill and get carried too. But that is not a good excuse for 31s to think they deserve to be included in the hard raid. My suggestion is stick to the normal raid with the 31 hunter until you get it to 32. But seeing as you are on xbox 360, there is a streamer on twitch http://www.twitch.tv/deftdel who helps two 31s each time through the hard raid a few times a week You should check him out you may be able to get your hunter through hard raid.
