      That was actually a good video. Well done. Leveling another 50 levels isn't inherently bad. It sucks right now SotD because: - There is not enough new content to play while leveling (or new content that is interesting). The same old milestones have become incredibly BORING at this point. - The player doesn't have the freedom to choose how they obtain powerful drops (e.g., some may just want to raid, some run strikes, some only play pvp). It's interesting to listen to Forbes and IGN reps say that they are in no hurry to level up at all this season. I'm pretty sure Bungie doesn't want to hear this.

        • I still use the majority of my 650 gear 'cause nothing else but The Reckoning and some other quests require power level above 650. I haven't really found a point in needing to be max power level just yet.

          • 2 weeks I'm 697, done 2 x scourge, 2 x wish and just played the milestones etc I don't see the issue, if you do the end game crap then you move up. Thats it, if you do the end game stuff and kill higher tier enemies you seem to get rewarded by more primes etc Just do the end game stuff if you want to move up at a reasonable level

              • He nailed it. Im still 650 on all characters, I can't grind power anymore it's too boring. Spend 30 minutes to an hour to do a milestone for a 651 item? I'll just play AC or NBA2K19 instead, at least you progress in those games. Love Destiny and I'll be back when they fix this crap.

                      This dude is legit the worst. obnoxious isn’t strong enough. People are complaining about leveling because they still don’t know they have to put on their highest gear every time they get a drop after 5 years of the same system lol. It’s beyond gross that misinformed bums can drive the direction of this game.

                          I've watched the SNTR videos and after awhile he becomes quite tiresome. He comes off as thinking he is the smartest guy in the room and much of his content is really just clickbait material. Also, I remember him singing the praises of Anthem for the first two weeks but he, like most content creators who tried it, hasn't been back to it since. Regarding leveling, it's Destiny. One moment you are incredibly frustrated and then the next incredibly happy when you get that drop you need.

                          I haven't even tried to get to max level yet, I know the kind of BS they throw in the way, so I just don't worry about it. In fact I haven't even gone through all of the forges yet, I stopped at the igniter portion of the Izanami forge (I might continue that today). Now a days I just play the game here and there, I pick something I want to go after (Thorn for example) I grind that out, and then I'm done for several hours, or the day, meanwhile back in D1 I always felt like there was something to chase, a legendary with a specific roll I was looking for, strike specific loot, or an exotic to go after, I was constantly playing that game. The whole reason the leveling in D2 is so bad is because they know how lackluster the content is, so they feel this need to make it super grindy to make up for it and drag out content, instead of just adding in new and more shit and getting rid of stuff like c[i]o[/i]ck block cores and whatever else to slow down progression.

                          As of yesterday, i got all my characters to 700 power... and i still think the system needs some adjustment. Levelling is too grindy and time consuming, and too dependant on luck where multiple drops in a row can go to waste if they end up in your highest slot (prime engrams and some bounties etc. give you decent upgrades but they can also work against you if the following drops that dont have the same potency end up the same slot). You should have a higher chance of getting the drop to the slot that has the lowest power lvl item available, and they should change it so that they also look at the item slot in addition to your overall level when you get a reward (for example: you do a daily that rewards a +1 drop, your overall level is 680 and the reward ends up in a slot where you have a 685 item. As of now that drop would be 681 and a waste of the players time, but if they looked at the slot in addition to the overall power and give a 686 drop in this scenario it would still be better than the previous item). If i want to enjoy new end game content i first have to grind the same old boring milestones every season for hours and hours, and if i get unlucky with my rewards i feel like my time was wasted, and that will make players quit playing the game. Personally i think all of the rewards should give you a bit more progress, and they should eliminate the effects of bad luck with the minor adjustments i suggested above.

                            In Destiny 1 I would go weeks not getting my power level up at all. I think Taken King era I was stuck at 297 power in my primary slot for months because powerful drops were so rare and random then. I don't know how people here coped.

                              • No, the leveling is not bad. There are so many things in the game that give you engrams and gear to boost your level, it's actually rather easy now, almost to the point it's too easy. I'm not complaining though cause it allows me to get higher without having to bury myself in the game. Anyway, to get higher all you have to do is do your milestones and bounties. They both bump you up fast, especially when you rank up in crucible or gambit, since you get an extra drop. Other tips: - cash in prime engrams as soon as you can since they don't change, but give you a boost - milestone engrams you pick up (Hawthorne, ikora, flashpoint), do the activity to get them, but leave them, don't pick them up till the end of the week..reason being those scale with you...so as you get higher doing the other activities, those will too - use the rubber band system if you have more than 1 character...by that I mean use them to pull each other up in level... - stop trying to increase all your gear at the beginning...get a set or 2 of gear you like, and level that up first....same goes for weapons..level up what you use the most first....that saves you leveling materials and insures you get higher faster... after you get up there, then you can level all your other stuff... - if you get the same piece of gear when doing milestones (2 helms, boots, primaries, etc), keep it at first...even if you don't like the second 1 that's higher, just keep it on you/in your vault till you get something else either higher or that you like...reason being the game will calculate that value into your level... I do the things I mentioned above and I always reach max level quickly on all 3 characters. Not only that, by the end of the season, I have a vault full of max stuff, along with max stuff on my characters. Seriously, with all that's in the game, including the addition of those special bounties that get you up to within 10 levels of the old max, there is no reason people should complain about leveling. If you complain now, it just shows this type of game(where some grinding is evolved) isn't for you.

                                • Really? The first week, I ran all milestones. This week, only have crucible milestones complete. I'm already 675. Could be over 680 if I do all other milestones. It's actually too easy. More options has helped too.

                                    • It's only 2nd week since light cap increase. I've only played one of my characters and my max light is over 690. Sure I've put in more time into it than what a lot of players can, but it's still one character, it's not that hard.
