Hi Guardians
Please could anyone give me advice on leveling up gear.
To ensure I get the best stats out of it, is there a base number I should be looking for?
Cheers
It depends on your build tbh. Powerful friends (+20 mobility) and radiant light (+20 strength) gives some boosts where you need it.
I am waiting on the powerful friends mod to be sold by Ada or Banshee and I’ll have 4, 100+ stats in my gear. What I recommend is using Destiny armor picker and DIM (Destiny item manager)—- 3rd party apps. Do research before using to ensure you are comfortable sharing your account info with the websites.
Destiny armor picker looks at all of your gear and gives you a slider bar that you can adjust to level out what gear would be best for your build. It even has the void and stasis fragment options and also the charged with light mods that add or remove stats for an accurate skill breakdown.
Destiny item manager helps you place mods and it helps you determine what affinity gear (solar / arc/ void/ stasis) you should apply for the mods you select. It’s also cool for us lazy players who don’t know good drops (and have loads of weapons in bank) as you can import (or just select the default lists) of popular pve/pvp player “wishlists” that call out weapons you should at least take a look at.
Hope this helps!
