Light level

wtf. I cant seem to get better gear, been playing for at least 3-4 hours a day since TTK launched and nothing, finally at 258 light after buying some exotics from Xur meanwhile, my friend started playing yesterday, and a few hours later hes light level 240 (without exotic from Xur) Is it RNG or am I doing something wrong?

  • Your doing it all wrong (so was i at first). I posted tips in the forum as a new thread called "for those struggling with light levels" or something like that.

    • 292. Farm court of oryx. Don't buy ANY VENDOR gear. Use blues with high defense until you find legendaries with the stars and perks you want. Then infuse the blues into them.

      I played level 36 strikes and a few heroic strikes this morning for about 2 hours before I had to go to work. When I started I was at light 242 when I finished I was at 274. Just grind strikes, there are a lot of blues that are higher than some of the legendary items.

      • Are you equipping all the gear you get with the highest attack and defense ratings?

          • Wear the highest light level gear you have (yes, even if it's blues) because higher gear/engrams drop the higher light level you are. Quests, strikes (heroic if possible), and Court of Oryx is how I got to 292. When you get to 270-280, start infusing some. Pick a good weapon/gear and infuse higher stuff into it.
