I'm just worried about the poor level 4 doing patrol. (Destiny)

He just walks in the room trying to get to Mothyards and is annihilated. You'd need to separate the instance. Darkness zone or whatever.

This.

Already in patrol areas at or near spawn on Earth, where you've got the lowest level new players, there's:

Minions of Crota
Eye/Hand/Heart of Crota
Megabattles (the enemy is moving against each other)
Urzok
Kill the Target
Defend the Warsat

The route from Steppes through Mothyard to Skywatch is one of the first a new Guardian learns, but repeating it in patrol mode can run you into any or even all of the above. Minions happens several times an hour, other public events usually once or twice in an hour, and the X of Crota "events" are available all the time if you disturb the target enemy. Think about it, as low level guardian on a patrol that guy in lunar complex just looks like a thrall cowering in a corner.

None of this is a problem, IMO. First of all, it can all be avoided. 2nd, you're a level 4 for like an hour, compared to the weeks or months that you're stuck replaying the same content at or near max level.
