So when Taken King comes out we start at level 20? I hope they add another character slot so we can start another character fresh along with the 3 we all probably have.

  • Confirmed from IGN interview that you will at the level you are now. Light will still be used to show how powerful you are.

  • Agreed! I'd love an additional character slot so I could replay the re-vamped story from start to finish/

  • If we don't get another character slot I will definitely delete one of my newer characters. I want to experience the re- structured quests in its entirety at least once.

  • It's not been confirmed what will happen to your current level. They are taking light away, so light no longer equals level. But what if I don't have all my best gear equipped at launch? Does that mean even though I am 34, I will be bounced down to 32 or 33 because I am levelling a few new items. I'm not at max level because I forgot to equip my best stuff? Or how do you balance someone who hit 34 compared to someone at 32. They're both dropping to 20? Probably not. The backlash would be huge. I think they will reset everyone back to level 1, but let you keep your class unlocks. They will also make the old gear non level dependant. I think new gear will be level dependant. So you will have the exact same guardians, able to use all your gear, all of your abilities, etc. you will just have a 1 beside your name. This makes it balanced for everyone. We all start over. But I don't want to replay all those story missions and strikes, just to play the new content. Not to worry, you will be able to choice what level you want to play the new story missions, strikes and raid at. Just like you can right now. Sure the new raid may require you to hit level 16, before you can play it. But that won't take too long. To me this is the only system that makes sense in terms of being fair. It's a big risk completely re-vamping your game in year 2. I am excited and hopefully it works out.

  • The raid would most likely start from where we r now. So no one would b able to raid for some time if we went to 1...if the raid starts at say 32 or 34. They would loose a lot of folks if thats the case. Theyve exhibited a certain pattern. though they r revamping, i would assume theyd keep it close to tour lvl now...maybe by prestige or something...maybe at most to lvl 20. But more than that i believe they will loose a lot of players.

    I think the raid will start a level 10. Basically they are going to force you to play all the story missions, the strike and patrol for a bit before they let you play the raid. That was kind of how the game was structured. You did the 5 story missions for each planet. The strike opened up at some point, and then the end goal was the raid. So I don't think they will let you play the raid on day 1. Bungie wants to make sure you enjoy all aspects of the game, not just 1 part. I of course might be complete wrong about this. It's what make sense to me though.

  • I think you're starting a level 1. Let's say you have a level 34 hunter, a level 30 Warlock and a level 24 Titan you haven't used since before TDB dropped. So now they're all 20? Well my Titan is seriously underpowered compared to my other 2 characters. Those first mission are going to be harder than hell. A level 24 Titan with some 242 base damage weapons, trying to do the same thing as a level 34 with 365 damage base weapons because we're both now level 20? That just doesn't work. I don't think you'll stay the same level because again, what if I forget to wear my best gear at launch. Now I am 32 even though I should be 34? I can see the WTF post already. It's a new XP system it makes more sense to reset everyone back to level 1. That way everyone starts on a level playing field.

  • The last point at which you stopped gaining XP to level up, which was lvl 20, will most likely be the level we get pushed down too

  • You do realize that the new xp cap is 30 right? So I'm pretty sure if they decided to just take away the light level all of us 34's would be level 30.

  • Take a look at your stats. You're Light Level may be 34 but your LEVEL is 20. If they take away Light Levels then we all are level 20. Experience points will now advance us up in levels instead of giving us Motes of Light.

    Right now xp cap = level 20 TTK supposed xp cap = level 30 If my calculations are correct, this means that in TTK [b]IF[/b] they take away light level we should be [b]XP LEVEL[/b] 30.
