I started playing in January which, yes is late, and unfortunately I didn't get that challenge of defeating Atheon with sub lvl 30s because I was carried through a lot of the experiences. I differ to you and other players with more experience and maybe have a better connection to the game (I'm not sure since I started playing this game I've loved it and it is my favorite game of maybe all time). I understand people's frustration about Bungie messing up in the first place, but I don't like hearing people gripe and complain about changes they believe will be for the better of the game. I do agree with you where Bungie needs to focus on making encounters more fun and challenging to play, but that's not something we as players will see until after the Taken King.
