Power up, learn a subclass, and don't infuse everything
Bungie
The loop
Destiny 2 is Bungie's live looter shooter. The New Light path, seasonal content, and expansions share gunplay; the real systems are Power, the seasonal artifact, and not dismantling the wrong god roll.
Raise Power with playlist gear, learn a subclass build, then run the current dungeon/raid/nightfall when the fireteam is ready.
First moves
- 1.Finish the New Light / current onboarding so the Director makes sense.
- 2.Pick one subclass fantasy (a simple Solar or Stasis loop) and a kinetic/energy/power you like the feel of.
- 3.Do not infuse every drop. Upgrade the guns you will actually shoot.
- 4.LFD for strikes first. Raids wait until you can follow a callout without dying to the add wave.
