Went from level 10 to Lv 20 (cap) with all blue and purple gear in an hour and a half. I'm not even close to finishing the campaign - still on Titan. I chained them because I needed co op XP to unlock another skill tree for my Titan, but each event gave me more than a full level's worth of XP and a box of rare gear. By the end of it, my gear level had gone from like 90 to 210. I'm not sure Bungie realizes how broken these events are. They're super easy, take like 5 minutes max, and there's always at least one going on at any time.

Just a 140 more light level to max. You'll slow down. Don't worry.

Given that in Destiny 1 those public events were a colossal waste of time with no real reward that were difficult to track, they probably went overboard in making them super valuable so people actually DO them and it feels like you're actually part of a community.

The DLC will raise the Light Level. The character level of 20 will stay the same. Probably anyway. Unless they decide to change something.

I agree with OP, especially due to how easy it is to do them now. You can easily see where they all are and mark them on the map. It shows how much time they have. They also seem to be going on constantly.

With the first game, you pretty much had to be lucky and stumble across one. IIRC they only activated every fifteen minutes or something and it was in a different area of the map. You could download apps to track them but I never cared enough to.

Which Is why no one did them and the second biggest complaint was how boring the worlds where.

It is really good, but the 265 wall is rough regardless

Thing is, it's programmed to always give gear near or above your current gear level, so chaining those public events continues to upgrade all my gear. Destiny 1 was similar in that way - the dropped great scaled with your current gear level.

I'm sure it caps at some point and only team missions give better gear, but I dunno when that will be.

This is a stupid review the story isn't meant to be hard it's meant to be a story.

It's not even the main content you'll be playing in D2

Are you unlocking the Heroic part of it every time you do it?

Almost every time. Two tanks instead of one, etc.

Plus as soon as I hit 20 I had three different reputation legendary engram rewards to claim and went to completely purple gear from all greens and blues.

I like D2 a lot more than D1 but it drops loot and upgrades so fast, I can barely keep up.

Don't need to defend this shit bro. If they just wanted to tell a story without gameplay they could. They could cut the story out altogether and spend those resources on more strikes and raids. The story doesn't have to be hard, but it also doesn't have to be a walk in the fucking park.

I mean he has a valid point but it's like saying a fighting game sucks cause the story is easy

That should be such a minor point to anyone who is playing the game.
