Sooo the level cap is....
Based on a interview with Bungie yesterday. It has been said the level cap is 30. [b]How do yall feel about that? And how long do you think it will take you to reach it?[/b]
Update: I thought it was common knowledge that the soft level cap is 20, I was wrong. So to clarify soft level cap is 20 and a max level of 30.

I'm happy with max being 30. At least until I hit it.

31 RepliesI seriously doubt there is a "hard" cap, just the soft one. Why? Because the only thing that determines your rank past 20, is the motes of light you have. That, or if there is a hard cap it will probably be a higher number like 40 or 50.

1 ReplyThis is like saying the world will end September 9th (if it did I hope it's not till night so I can play some 1st) no one knows till it happens or in this case some one hits the cap. Even if bungie said "well the cap is 20" someone would shut them down about it in no time. Just wait we will find out soon enough guardians.

5 RepliesI feel like the cap is like 50 or maybe even 100 but it will be hard to get motes of light, also level doesn't really matter I mean it's an fps so getting gear and killing stuff will be more what I concentrate on
-
2 RepliesI love how even when confronted with an interview that clearly states the cap so many people are still saying we can't know. I wonder how many of you actually read the article.
-
3 RepliesIt will take us a couple months to reach 30 I'm sure.
-
1 ReplyI feel like they might buff it in the dlc. 30>20. Troof.

3 RepliesWill be raised in DLC proof - Activision makes WoW - lvl 33 guardian - http://i.imgur.com/Q8o9Di2.jpg

6 RepliesThey said that they were going to make it harder to level up, I'm guessing it'll take a lot longer to get to level 30.

11 RepliesHonestly we don't know if there even is a CAP. Because of that light stat your level seems like it becomes fluid with the armor you wear. Yes 20 is a soft cap, but depending on the armor we find and possibley new exotics and armors in the future the light stat could be always changing and, like I said, it could add a level of fluidity to our level and there may not be a indefinite cap. Like "oh I got such and such armor and it gives me 129 light and makes me a level 38" until you find another piece. Yeah there probably is an endpoint but if were constantly changing our armor it could go up and down Which I think is great! It doesn't make the level a solid thing it makes it fluid and fun.

1 ReplyWell they have to put a cap on it. They have a ten year plan so that cap will be raised after awhile
-
1 ReplyI actually don't mind that it just means that you don't have to grind as long
-
4 RepliesI don't mind too much. The thing people aren't getting about this game is that it is not as Lv restricted as a traditional MMO and so people keep comparing them saying that the Lv cap needs to be higher, we need crafting, we need bigger raids, bla bla bla. The game is more about personal customization than a solid Lv. Once we all hit Lv 30 we will then get to the grinding phase just like in the alpha/beta. It took no time at all to get to the Lv 8 cap in the beta but it took me forever to get the top gear and to get the gun types that I was looking for. Even towards the end of the beta I still didn't have the weapon and armor effects that I wanted so again, I needed to continue playing. The Lvs are more to help you determine the difficulty of the mission than you character's actual strength. If everyone is Lv 30 then it will become more about the player's character than about the player's Lv which is a really cool system IMO.

1 ReplyMeh. Needs more Ambient Occulsion.
-
6 RepliesThe max isnt 30, the soft cap is 30, because there will be 3 subclasses 10 levels per class, I believe, if you go to your character youll see 2/3 subclasses
-
1 ReplyI think they'll increase it ass they bring out more updates and dlc..hopefully

Doesn't really matter to me. Sure its not that big compared to other mmorpg's, but just by saying that you're assuming that destiny's level system is identical to all those other mmorpg's. The fact that the only thing level determines is what enemies you can fight and what gear you can wear is another thing. If all level is a system of determining your power ratio against enemies, does it really matter what the cap is? Also, they've stated several times that the game's focus is on horizontal progression, not vertical progression. Even once you hit lvl 20 you still got tons more stuff to do. You can stop worrying about which gun deals the most damage and start aiming for what feels comfortable. They're making the level process shorter than other games so you can get to the loot hunting and top tier activities sooner. For that reason, I see no need to make the level cap bigger. Would you really want the 80 levels of borderlands 2 to go through before you find your first exotic or attempt a raid?

3 RepliesYeahhhhh I'd be fine with anything over 50
-
4 RepliesThe lvl is 30 wtf
-
12 RepliesWhen u get to 20 u have to collect motes of light to level up past that
-
and in 6 months itll go to 40 and 6 more itll go to 50
-
6 Repliesreach 20 5 days? reach 30? if it's based on equipment i'd say 2 month if you raid well with your party
-
5 RepliesTwenty hours of playtime to max a character. It's not skyrim
-
1 ReplyI just hope its not a ball grinding fest

9 RepliesIn all honesty, I can (not being arrogant) say that hitting soft cap of 20 would take me a full day at max (I'll be playing from launch till I fall asleep). My plan for Destiny was to run past the Story and hit 20 so I can get ready for strikes and the Raid. Now hitting 30 is a different leveling system as far as I know. I would say hitting 30 may take me from a month to longer, I can't honestly say how long because the gear could be decent or rare. If I were to choose a defined time I would say a month to two months of nothing but grinding, but I also enjoy crucible and just sitting in nice scenic areas so it could always take longer. Soft cap will be easily obtainable, the hard cap will be a challenge I look forward to.
