I hit 31 by Saturday evening, right before we loaded up Crota's End for the first time. I went into the second Raid wearing NONE of my VoG Raid armor--armor that took MONTHS to acquire.

Bungie, stop doing stupid.

You're completely right in terms of the progression being lopsided. But I look at it in a different way:

Reaching level 30 didn't mean much to me on its own. I wanted to get that raid gear and hit 30 so I could be more effective during the raid. I'm not inherently attached to my gear or light level... I care about what I am able to do within the missions I am playing. So I played the Vault of Glass dozens of times, earning slightly more effective gear as I went.

Now we have a new Raid and higher-level missions. The progression loop starts again. We scrape by with our VoG gear as we acquire new, better gear. Personally, I'm ok with that.
