The effects of Player Level in the Iron Banner (Destiny)

I'll speak specifically to the player level advantages that I noticed.

- I was able to constantly one shot (body shot) lower level (27-29) players with my sniper and get the kill where I normally wouldn't.

- I was still able to be killed by lower level players on a fairly constant basis if they got the jump on me. I might have lasted slightly longer than normal.

- Seeing a level 22 go against level 32 players was really amusing. One match we had a level 22 who managed to get something like 2 kills and 14 assists or something like that. This could have been due to lack of skill but I'm betting more on being at a huge level disadvantage.

- Skilled players are still very skilled even when while being at a level disadvantage. I had a friend playing as a 29 who could still mop the floor with the other team.
