Honestly thought this was a bait thread. Raise your light to 315+ before doing the raid? How in the hell do you do that? SRL and Iron banner? Dude, I cleared HM several times with a full fireteam of 309- guardians. You have every reason to get frustrated by his lack of skill sure, but that has nothing to do with light level. And damn, if everyone on the team is 318+, they SHOULD be skilled enough to carry a 309 through the raid. I had a 310 piece of trash during an Oryx challenge mode before. He kept dying at the first phase repeatedly. On the successful run, he went down running to the aura after the first ogre so someone had to take his platform and we only had one floater till we killed Oryx. Its more than doable.
