Well the level cap in HoW won't be increasing, so the dark below weapons will probably still be just as good as that raid. The way to lol stir is this. You get the base game Destiny, which is like the free to play version of an mmo. You get a cool awesome level, the VoG, which has some cool weapons and gear. Buy one of the paid expansions however and you unlock the high tier weapons, pay to play. It's how business works, they get you playing the version with the weaker gear and then ask you to pay for the "true" content. Just accept it, like others have said, it's just a game so don't stress over it too much
