Why does light level matter? It's pvp?

  • Light lvl doesn't mean much in regular crucible. When ever I make a new character I get phantoms and I do better then my team 8 out of 10 games. How ever your light lvl does matter in trials to a point. If your below 310 in trials a 335 will usually be able to one shot body shot with a sniper and so on

  • That's why I was saying that, people pick what gear gives them the best stat rolls for pvp which normally bring your light down because light doesn't matter. I was just confused as to why they cared about light.

  • It depends if there is the level advantage thing on. Most game modes it's not. It always annoys me when people Msg me for trials saying their light lvl. As a 305 I can still carry a team. Even though I will get one shotted by grenades and snipers

  • I'm guessing people assume a higher light means a more experienced guardian. However I recently transitioned from PS4 to XB1 where I had a 332 Hunter and Warlock (scrapped a Titan) and now my light on XB1 is 313 at most but I'd say I can handle my own in the crucible so I guess it just makes them rather stupid to ask for light. Especially when it doesn't affect performance (as you said).
