nope, the highest a piece of gear can drop is 380 (Destiny)

I agree that's the theory, but I'm saying I haven't seen a powerful engram without mods drop over 375, and I've got 380 in every slot except one. Sure, I might just be unlucky, but if you've gotten a drop over 375 without mods I'd like to see it and know what you were doing when it dropped.

I believe you. In fact, the slog from 370 to 380 was made known back in April. So yes, there is a soft cap, but what I'm saying you can (and will) get gear to drop above 375.

"Additionally, the final 10 points from 370 to 380 will be significantly slower than 340 to 370; we expect it to take players roughly equal time to go from 340 to 370 as from 370 to 380. We decided to make this change because climbing to 370 allows you to tackle endgame content without suffering a severe under level penalty, but creates a significant accomplishment in achieving 380."
