Base Power Too Low?

I think bungie really screwed up with this infusion system, but that's beside the point. Why can't I infuse my 270 helmet in to a 266 helmet and why can't I infuse my 270 shoulders into my 266 shoulders?

  • I have a situation where I have a 375 item (including +5 mod) and I want to infuse it with a 373 item (unmodded) so I could bring it up to 378 (presumably) This has never been a problem before because the 375 item would be 370 base power so I am at a loss here why I get that "Base Power Too Low" message. What am I missing here? I've previously been able to do this.

  • Base power to low. All about the mods. If your lower light has a legendary mod on it and your higher light does not, you will not get the 5 point boost that comes with lower light armor. The 270 is actually 265 thus making it too low. Confused the crap out of me for a while. Once you see and understand that part, it makes sense.

    • This confused me too until i realized a mod gave it an extra 5 so it was still lower

    • The comment factor for me is an added purple mod that adds +5. For example: 263 head can't go infuse into a 260 head, if the 263 head has a purple +5 mod on it which pretty much means the helmet is 258 not 263 therefore "Base power too low". Hope I helped

    • Your helmet has a +5 mod to make it 270, but its base power is 265. So you can't infuse it into your 266 helmet because its base power is lower.

    • Armor mods. You're 270 probably has a mod that gives +5 power so it counts as 265 when u infuse it
