The new cap has finally been revealed: 40 But what’s not all that’s been changed! The way Bungie is approaching leveling up is now tied directly to experience. There is no more Light values on armor, so that “experience now feeds directly into your level progression all the way from 1 to the new level cap of 40.” This new way of leveling up – and reaching max level – isn’t going to be changed by things that are “outside of your control” and you’re not going to need to worry about armor determining what level you are. Just found this info. So. Maybe legendary weapons and guns will still be viable. Because your level is experience driven, not light level dependant. Hmmmmm. Maybe there [i]is[/i] some hope after all.

I wonder if we will have to start from scratch.
