Still getting plus one power drops

Just got one from crucible match. I’m 655 and was at 653 at the time of the drop, which shouldn’t effect it. My friend told me the plus one power drops were fixed. Is this not so?

      • Dude if you are above the soft cap, the lowest tier for powerful drops such as; normal strikes, flashpoint, regular gambit and yes crucible matches, will always grant a +1 to power level.

      • Am I just doing something wrong if powerful gear engrams consistently give me items that are at my current power level? First I was stuck at 298 for weeks. Then I was stuck at 299 for weeks. Now I'm stuck at 300. I keep getting 299 or 300. I don't equip my highest level gear at the time of the drop but that doesn't seem to affect anything anyway.

        the ones from crucible, vanguard, flashpoint give 1+ same in black armory they should be used to catch up on behind gear if you are going for optimal leveling you won't be getting much higher unless you do activities that require higher light or are recent additions such as reckoning, and gambit prime (they give the highest next to prime engrams) so it's better to save them for when all your gear is about the same power (this is especially important when you get to the 690's) but most people still don't know how optimal leveling works since they updated it back in the start of forsaken and assume the system is broken which I personally don't think is true

      • I believe Bungie stated last week that it would be fixed sometime this week after reset. Have yet to see them say it is actually fixed yet.

      • IKR yesterday I did the last word quest for second time and it dropped 1 lvl above me, which really frustrated me.

        • I played this evening. Approaching 5 hours. Moved from 662 to 665. Keep getting the same item. Over and over. I doubt I can level over 10 points week with all items.

        • It stinks, but I really think this is working as intended. Didn't all dailies used to be +1 and all weeklies +2 after they hit the soft cap? It's the prime engrams and the raid, B.Forge and D.C. that give bigger jumps. It works best to kind of use the dailies and weeklies to catch up the lower pieces once you have some higher pieces to move you up a few LL.

          • Nope. The powerful drops are all +1. Dreaming City might as well be renamed to Shitty City as those drops are all +1 as well. Only Powerful Engrams and maybe Exotics(I’m guessing here because I haven’t had an exotic drop this week) are dropping higher. Pretty pathetic that this is happening given we are grinding the same content we’ve been grinding for the past 6mons. Bungie really appreciates players spending time playing the game and rewards them for doing so. Actions speak louder than words. Screw over the player base or what’s left of the player base due to incompetence in coding? Div 2 for me Friday. Screw this BS!

            • It hasn’t been fixed and there’s nothing in game that explains or even hints at the ‘powerful rewards’ having different tiers.

            • Most powerful engrams are only +1. Dreaming city,NF's(to a point),Ada's weapon frames,and the raids should be up to +5 and primes and exotics can go higher then that.

              • I believe the reset times for vendors were fixed with update 2.2.0.1 , but the powerful drops will be fixed later with update 2.2.0.2.

              • Edit* max light was 655 at the time of the drop but was lower because I was using 650 weapons instead of my higher power ones

                • I’ve been having the same issue tbh. 4 powerful drops today so far. I started at 662. I got a 663 Helm, 663 Kinetic Shotty, 663 Kinetic Sniper, and 663 Elemental Hand Cannon. The only item that WASN’T dropped at 663 was an Exotic Helm that dropped at 667. Considering my Kinetic is 662, Energy is 666, and Helm WAS at 662 before the Exotic drop, all items should have dropped higher than 663. I just stopped playing Destiny today. I’ll come back to it tomorrow or another time and try again, but I’m not down with grinding a whole weeks worth of Activities for a bunch of 663 items when I’m supposed to be getting gear that increases my LL, not makes it stay it 662 😒 they were supposed to fix it today with the update. Apparently that just didn’t end up happening.
