Just watched it and with the role of light vs our levels I think there is still room for us to not be level 34.
Look at it this way, we have 2 levels one is our base level 20 the other is our light level 168 which in the current game replaces base level
He says our level won't change, sure but since they separate the two in ttk it would not be wrong if we went in at level 20 because our base level would be unchanged. Our light level would also stay the same
Since they are upgraded differently we could still have 20 levels to gain even though we are effectively doing the same damage and have the same defense we have now due to how light levels work
So for example VoG hard, we CAN run that at base level 20 because that will no longer dictate how much damage we deal and take. VoG hard won't be a base level 30 raid anymore but instead a LIGHT level 120 raid that we run at base level 20 and light level 120
So what I'm saying is we COULD still have 20 base levels to go while maintaining our same damage output and defensive ratings
Essentially we won't notice a change except in our base level number but since activities will be off of a suggested light level we can still do everything we have but would still have from levels 20-40 to level up

[quote]Not sure how many of you know this so I decided to make a thread. [url=http://www.vg247.com/2015/08/07/destiny-the-taken-king-still-includes-light-levels/]Link to article.[/url] There have been many worried or curious as to whether your level would drop to 20 when The Taken King launches. It will not. You will automatically become the level that your armour equates to. [quote]DeeJ also confirmed that players who have hit the existing cap of level 34 will “take their first steps” in The Taken King at that same level. Players who are of a lower but still end-game level (say 26, which you could achieve in vanilla Destiny without raiding) – will still be able to play The Taken King content, and will level up quickly.[/quote] What this [i]seemingly[/i] means is that your experience-based level will jump to level 34 if your Light level when TTK drops is 34 (from what we understand). That said, [quote]Bungie has not yet finalised what the entry level for The Taken King content will be, DeeJ added.[/quote] So everything is still subject to change and tweaking. I hope that clears things up for everyone. Edit: Here's my understanding in a breakdown for more clarity: "Hard" Levels (my term): 1-40 — levelled up through experience. Light level: This is your power indicator. While you might be level 40, you can still be under the recommended Light power level for an activity, meaning it'll be (a bit) hard for you. [quote]As of The Taken King and update 2.0, your Light level will be calculated based on your total attack and defence statistics rather than the combined total Light attributes of your armour. Some missions will have recommended Light levels, to indicate whether the gear you’re wearing is up to the task.[/quote] [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZnbqVeWb2Y]Also, here's an interview you may not have seen. It barely has over 50,000 views![/url] [b]IMPORTANT[/b] For those still unsure if what I'm saying is confirmed, [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cNIu0fMtMg]hear it from DeeJ's mouth in this gamescom interview.[/url] This is also the video linked above.[/quote]

Here's the article

No, in one of Charlamenge's posts he stated that your light level will be transferred to your xp level when ttk starts.
