I'd love to, but I don't have enough storage space to keep a full set of blue armor lol

You're confusing me with Bluerunner. (reply)

If I recall, this was referenced quite a lot right around when I was first playing PvP...with you. Accident?

Uhhhh...

Thought: I would find it intriguing if Bungie used grimoire scores to determine level. I wouldn't LIKE it (given my own grimoire score) but it could be interesting to see that play out. Highly unlikely, I suppose, but interesting.

I don't know (reply)

In theory that's why they have the system in place where low level enemies take less damage than enemies at your level. That way you should be able to play with a lower level player without overpowering the experience for them. Of course, if they are playing against enemies above their level they will be playing with a handicap that you don't have, but as long as they are playing enemies at their level it shouldn't make that much difference.

He doesn't forgive and he doesn't forget.

Maybe they should let you dial it down temporarily (reply)

if enough people ask for this then they might provide it. There is certainly a good case for it.

Trying to picture you telling noobs to 'git gud.' (reply)

Probably it would sound about how you sound when I ask if I'm supposed to "cap A."

It would be a really polite 'git gud.'

Just kidding of course, I've heard you tell me to git gud countless times.

I agree. I have friends who are nowhere near as dedicated to the Destiny world who still are learning to play through the first time. I have enjoyed being able to go help without overpowering the levels my friends are still on. I will miss that.

Oryx ate my light! (reply)

From the editor’s note at the bottom of the article (my emphasis added):

In my hands-on time, my existing level 34 guardians transitioned seamlessly into the new system, and leveling during subsequent story missions was smooth and engaging.

When I first heard about the fact that armor doesn't grant you light levels anymore I thought a cool way to do it would be lore/story based. Oryx enters the system and eats all the light given by armor. It would kinda suck in some ways, but it would be kinda cool in others.

No de-levelling is a sad. Ps4 Blue VoG B4 TTK Anyone? (reply)

Maybe the PS4 gang needs to have a blue VoG party (like the 360 gang is) before TTK drops.

I can see 3 (easy) options.
1- we can "absorb" light from armor, making those levels permanent.
2- I think we've all been continuously gaining xp in the background and earning motes of light. I suspect there will be a max starting xp that players will have earned up to (and I bet most will have gotten there) and just start there.
3- most likely there will be the story missions where you go from 20-34 or something so everyone starts at the same place.

Sounds like that might be the case.

Maybe Light level will be a deciding factor in the Trials still?

Will defense on gear be a deciding factor? (reply)

MacAddictXIV — Tue, 04 Aug 2015 22:41:03 +0000

I'm gonna guess that Light and defense is going to make a much bigger difference now that experience is the main factor in leveling up now.
