I'm guessing it's people that haven't played it (Destiny)

On runs with no deaths, it appears to be just as easy as normal mode, up until Oryx, who's a bastard.

That's my biggest concern, right there. I'm hearing things like "306-308 is fine up until Oryx, then you really need to be over 310".

Normal raid refuses to drop higher level gear for me, so that means the only way for me to do hard mode is to play most of the raid a few times and hope I get really good drops that let me level up high enough to fight Oryx?

I'm with you on this -- I can get to 307 (up from 306 last week) with a specific gear set, but I still have some serious deficiencies.

Am I being unreasonable for expecting an activity to be consistent in its level requirements? As in: don't let people get 90 minutes into an activity before they realize they need to go level up for a few more weeks before they can come back and beat it?

I think this has been their design all along. In the normal raid it's 290 up until oryx, where it's 300. IIRC this is also how crota hard worked, a lot of it was 33 up until the end, at 34.
