Smart man automates Destiny grinding (Destiny)

Can you get to level 32 with raid gear that way? Nope. If you want to do Hard mode tomorrow, you had to have gotten to 32 by way of an RNG.

My hunter is just shy of 32, and the only RNG gear I have to show for that are the raid boots. The chest and gauntlets I bought from Iron Banner, and the helmet I got from Xur. Looks like you don't need RNG whatsoever to be ready for Hard Raid.

Unfortunately "Just shy of 32" is still 31. I wish the game gave players credit for their progression through the light levels, but as far as it's concerned, being two light away from 32 is exactly the same as just hitting 31.

Does it not? We have that defense number that goes up and up as you activate the circles. Is the only change in actual toughness or damage resistance or whatever the big 31 to 32 transition? (My guess is no...)
