That Gatling gun looking primary? I got that one.

Also figured out why every single thing was dropping at 270 for my hunter (fricking everything except milestones) is because I have two hunters made. They put a super nerf on secondary characters of the same class, basically holding them from being able to get high powered stuff.

I don't think that's why. Mine was/is still doing that and I only had one character.

I'm 284 and drops are 276.

It’s because most likely a few of your items have a base rating of 276 or lower with a mod boosting them. Subtract the mod bonus (probably 5) and that’s what the base level of the piece actually is.

I had this same problem. View the details on all your armor and weapons, you can probably upgrade most of them by breaking down items with a seemingly lower rating. It is very misleading and easy to make this mistake.

Items drop at 5 below your base level after 265

So if your base light level is 280, but with mods it’s 285, items drop at 275.

Only way to Level is increase lowest items with base power below 275 at that point, hope for exotics, and wait for weekly milestones etc

Bungie has gotten better at time gating and artificially extending the life of the game while gutting all the features they already had in place in D1.

It’s actually pretty ridiculous and impressive at the same time that we’re okay with that.

I'm not ok with it. Pretty sure I'm going to quit playing it. I'm not dumping hours into a game that holds back rewards for playing. You can't even play the low drops in hopes of a good roll or anything like that. frickkkkkk that.

If anything, the new system would save you time. You know there are only a handful of activities you can do each week to improve your light level. Do those and then call it a week, if you want. Plus you don't have to grind weapon rolls anymore.

And I still don't get why people are complaining that the destiny 1 progress didn't transfer over. It's a new game.

There is a bloom effect. Which will cause ghost bullets.

I like the reset, I can usually get my milestones done on either Tuesday or Wednesday. Put the controller down till Friday and raid on the weekends. Been pretty good so far.

Make sense. I still have a few weapons at light level 265 hoping to level them up (Uriel's Gift). If I stash them, will that help? I can leave my highest level (minus mods) pieces and turn in my tokens...what would that do? Maybe I'm not understanding it correctly. Thanks in advance for the help.

Yea I guess I'll start doing it that way. I get the idea, so that leveling up isn't directly tied to hours played but rather time owning the game. It fits into the balance thing they were shooting for. Still sucks to get overloaded with blue and purple and yellow 270's. I never really grinded weapon roles in D1 but it seems like I always had a good gun of some flavor to use.

D1 not transferring over is fine with me. I wanted a new game. I'd have liked to have a new species of alien to shoot at

Was anyone else getting completely awful drops and decrypts last night? I got a total of 5 legendary engrams last night. I decrypted 3 once and then got the other two a little later. All 5 decrypted into the same helmet. All damn five with three right in a row


Did probably 15 public events yesterday with the boost coin on and got 0 legendary and 0 exotics.

You'll all go Dead Orbit, if you know what's good for you.

I honestly haven't decided yet. Is it b/c of the shaders? The scout rifle? I'm liking the idea of a pulse rifle with firefly.
