After playing for countless number of hours, it seems that I have ran into a problem. Everything I get is caped at 265 from vendors and I already know that it's capped already and everything drop I get is weaker except when I did the raid and go some 270s. Can anyone help me or give me some tips to get out of 268 power level?

Edited by MootConstant975: 9/19/2017 4:54:35 PMYou hit what is called a "soft cap" which items drop around 265. Do your milestones(it will say "powerful gear"), nightfall, any exotic quests you may have, Cayde's treasure maps, the raid, trials of the nine,crucible, and grind out those public events for a chance for an exotic.This destiny reddit article will definately help https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/6z73y7/how_to_get_past_265_from_a_290/

Drops will be 1 light pt higher then your lowest equipped gear/weapon. Any purple or yellow may have a +5 mod. So if the purple shows 265 it may really be a 260. If all equipped is legit 265 you should get 268 drops. Then when all gear/weapons are 268 drops will be 270. This is what worked for me.
