The truth is, a higher grimore usually means a player is more skilled, because it would seem they have done more in game. So they should be better right? However, a player with a low grimore can easily be better than a player with a high grimore score. So grimore is more of a show of how long you have played, not the quality of playtime. I know high grimore players that suck, and low grimore player who are amazing. (As you stated) However, a player is truely skilled if they assemble a team of noobs, teaches them what to do, and completes the activity as fast as an elitist team can. I have done that many times in end game activities, when those activities were end game. But in all seriousness, i hope elitists keep posting for 4600+ or whatever requirement they want. It lets me know who not to play with, because 9/10 times those elitists are arrogant scrubs. (And yes, i meet the requirements).(and that conclusion has been made through personal experience, and interestingly it has not changed since the beta [yes, elitist crucible teams were a thing back then, the pve elitists started in launch week, well before the vault of glass was released.]) High grimore score is associated with skill because of the experience players get from playing long enough to rack the score up, but it mostly doesn't directly translate to player skill. So the answer is yea, but also no. If you guys want to have requirements, thats fine. Its your fireteam. I'm not offended, play the game your way. But you did, however, ask for the player bases' opinion.

"Sorry if I come off as an elitist, I just want to get this done fast". I tell them its way better then a light level requirement, I don't like people asking for light level and demanding you to use a certain weapon. I know how to play my characters and everyone should know how to play theirs. I should not tell a person what to use. Do you think people who ask for 315+ or 318+ light level are elitist? Because the raid can easily be done by a 310. Anywhoo I do like your respond, you read my original post and gave actual feedback and your opinion.

Your text dialect is different, and I have run into enough elitists to know if someone is asking for a requirement, or being an elitist. Unfortunately they are very similar, but there are a few differences. You apologizing for sounding as such proves your asking for a requirement. As far as light levels go, it depends on the extent. Asking for people to be 290+ for the raid is more so reasonable, same for 300 for hard. However I think anything more than that is starting to become elitist, but not necessarily if no one knows how and what to do, while 310+ is elitist, simply because they weren't past the highest light level when hard mode came out, and asking for one to be as such while the player themselves weren't is hypocorism. A grimore requirement is better than a gear requirement for both sides of the argument, since a very experienced player may not play enough to be 310+, and that a 310+ isnt always as skilled as they should be. I personally never ask for a specific level to be met, but instead ask that they are nice and willing to cooperate with others. Most of my raids (+ Skolas) have gone smoothly with this, and despite some players not being skilled or having good enough equipment to do a certain task, they have been able to coordinate with others, and together we have overcome it without much difficulty fairly fast, simply because the others knew of a downside, and could plan or act accordingly.
