Still confused with the levelling stuff, does light still matter?? or is just getting XP by questing /bounty ect. the main thing to do??

your light is your defense and attack all added together divided by the number of items (10 i think) once you hit 40 you need higher defense and attack stuff to progress

Anyone know if you the auto level item gives you points to put towards your special? Don’t want a lv 25 with nout but a grenade.

You get to level 40 just by doing stuff - missions, bounties etc. My light level was around 200 when I hit 40. However to be able to do things like the heroic strikes/daily/raid (even just some of the patrol missions) you'll need better gear to raise your light level, otherwise you'll get destroyed. So in practice it's not really any different from what it used to be. Mind you, if'n you're a warlock, it's worth it just for the Stormcaller subclass.

The racing's quite good fun. Could do with more than 2 tracks though, and perhaps make them 2 laps instead of 3. Easy way to get a purple helmet and a customised horn. There's a joke in there somewhere but I can't see it.

Having spent a bit more time with it I can see the levelling's more subtle than I thought. I got up to around light 215 the other night and was busy doing some stuff when I realised my light had dropped. Took me ages to work out that it was simply because I'd equipped a different weapon. I tried my first heroic daily last night at light 225 (recommended 240). I then had to drop my light to equip a solar weapon because of a pesky wizard's shields. Makes your gear load out more tactical. I likes. Got twatted both ways as it turned out, but hey.

Oh well. At least it was a Thorn, which was nice, since it's one I'd never have got otherwise. Yeah, any incomplete year 1 exotic bounties you had auto completed for TTK.

First heroic daily managed! A few more of those now and I'll be able to afford that nice scouty in the Dead Orbit shop.

Yeah, any incomplete year 1 exotic bounties you had auto completed for TTK. That would make sense, but I'm not convinced I'll have had it. I generally didn't start exotic bounties that involved the Crucible. It's nice to have it - I do like a nice cannon - but to upgrade it to year 2 looks a bit pricey.

Sounds like Pigs hooked again, I'm hoping to have a bundle of free time soon to get back on it.

Sounds like Pigs hooked again. Looks like he is... I even looked forward to seeing what Xur had in stock today, and was then disappointed to see it's nowt new. I'll buy as much as I can though since I have no y2 exotics yet and it costs too many marks to upgrade from y1. What level/light you up to? I'm just at the level I can do the daily now, which is worth it for the 15 legendary marks you get.

Well if any of you guys want to start running raids I'd only recommend vault of glass and crotas end for fun / experience of doing it as the gear they drop is useless now (Max 170 light I think).
If you want to run the Kings fall raid get to 280ish light and we can help you out. The closer to 290 you are the more enjoyable it would be as you will survive a bit longer.
We have quite a few people closing in on being 320 light now (current limit) so we can help out.
Sparrow racing is a great way to get good infusion gear. Once you are rank 2, helmets and class items can drop at 300-310 light. Once you are rank 3 they will drop at 310-320. Brilliant for giving a big boost.
