Shadowkeep is the thing to buy right now. Make a goal of "hit 950 power" maybe? buy Shadowkeep, do its campaign, then do the Moon and Vex Offensive activities mixed in with the same strikes/crucible/gambit maps we've been doing for 1-2 (or more!!) years

GoGoGadgetChris posted:Yes. The artifact boost will cap out around +14, putting you at 964 and a 16 point penalty from any 980 content https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/48097 quote:While leveling up and unlocking mods, you will also increase the Power of the Artifact, which will continue increasing until the end of the Season (yes, it is uncapped). Artifact Power adds directly to your overall Power and is account-wide. We are both excited, and a little terrified, to see how high players will manage to raise their Artifact Power during the Season.

Akuma posted:I thought the pitch of the artifact was that there is no cap? The amount of XP per power level continues to go up. At Seasonal 100, you're looking at ~100 hours of playtime for another level. Their comment on "3 strikes and four bounties for a Level" refers to Seasonal Track Level, which are the same amount of XP per level. Love that "Level" means 4 things now - Power (pka. Light) - Season Track 1-100 - Artifact 1-12 - Seasonal Power Boost ("infinite" but functionally capped at 14)

Yeah it’s uncapped. People that are saying “it’s +13 when you get to 100” are just parroting the one person who said he did the K1 Logistics Lost Sector a billion times to get to level 100 on the season pass and when he did he was +13 on his artifact. He never said his artifact stopped leveling there, but everyone took that and ran with it.

Nobody thinks it stops leveling there. But you can see the issue with it taking A Real Long Time and how that's functionally pretty similar to "it stops leveling there"??

Daric posted:Except that we’re 10 days into a 90 day season so no, i don’t see the issue? I think you're confusing "it takes too long" with "there's not enough time". (also, this season is 63 days). Even if the Season spans 1,512 hours, it still takes too drat long when it's the only* way to play 980 content. Getting to Rank 100/+13 will take ~100 hours of active play time. Then +14 is 110 hours. And +15 is 120 hours. And +16 is 140 hours! And the biggest laugh is that December 1st, you reset to 950 and you're another 140 hours away from tackling that 980 content again. *yeah yeah yeah the streamers did it at 900; none of us are streamers

If I wanted to be very generous in giving Bungie the benefit of the doubt, I would expect at some point this season for a quest or usable item or event that greatly increases exp gains for your artifact, similar to the progress boosts for the eriana’s vow catalyst

Rinkles posted:Is there a suggested path for those of us that don't want to spend money? What do you own? Just New Light? You can get to 900 doing anything and everything. Try it all! Do as many exotic quests as you can, work on the Season of Opulence "Chalice" upgrade process, work on the seasonal Pinnacle/Ritual guns from Crucible/Gambit/Vanguard, tinker with Forges, etc. Eventually get to 950 just by doing all the gold-star Twinklies on the space map.

Calaveron posted:God these vex weapons are hideous Might have been you didn't make the time limit. Aka your pubbies suck severely. Happened to me the other day. Levelling feels both easier and more of a chore this expansion. I dunno I just keep doing as many bounties as possible in my weeklies and I've gained about 10ll from last week but I can't say I enjoyed much of it. Only one gambit game was fun. Some idiot decided to bag me after he invaded and truthed me so I got annoyed enough to get 24 guardian kills invading and our team managed to chip away at our primeval just enough for us to win by a bees dick. Ruining their 4 mans day made my dick move but otherwise. Also strikes need a little something more imo. Dunno what but something and patrols need to count in flashpoints.

Im getting 30 valor per win on a 5 game win streak. I think the more you reset the less valor you get. I have reset twice now. Are bungie really this loving tight now? loving hell. Not to mention i cant find a game in anything but survival and classic. And classic is laggy as gently caress. Man. They have really screwed the pooch on this one.

The scaling also is definitely different to where a 30 point gap won’t be a big deal. Dwitzl and I two manned the 980 nightmare at 930, and it wasn’t really that bad.

SBMM does nothing to stop this. The solution should never be "git bad". Plus the whole valor thing is pretty indefensible. That's just tight.

Bungie’s always a bunch of tight-fisted fuckers when they decide players are getting “too much loot”. See: only getting bright engrams every 5th level now, not even getting bright dust from dismantling all the garbage sparrows & ships that you get from them, or their OG D2 loot-nerf: two tokens and a blue. It feels weird as hell playing some Diablo 3, there’s just good, usable loot just pouring out of every activity.
