21 too and all I get is level 16 gear with no light bonuses.
I'm forever stuck at 21, which I'm only t because I used a shitty chest piece with light bonus instead of my Chest piece with 70 more defence.
I've just stuck with Voidwalker because I don't understand how the system works. How am I leveling Sunsinger if I'm already level 20? And does it make me significantly less powerful at first?

There should be a multiplier, though. As in, keep it the way it is, but depending on your position you get a small multiplier. An incentive to perform better in PvP while keeping the randomness of it.
I'm not saying the rich should get richer. It should be random for PvP, it's just frustrating when you play like 20 games and you get like, 2 shitty blue items and you see terrible people pick up legendaries and exotics or multiple good blue items.
If anything, your ability to take/defend points or assist your team should give you better odds at getting a good item. Or at least guarantee a blue engram.

And on a side-note, has anyone seen people in PvP running around with that crazy fusion rifle that discharges a single concentrated beam that goes really fucking far and is basically a hunter golden gun sniper? Because that shit is insane. I've gotten insta-killed at full health from short range to long range with it (like almost 50 yards in game).

You still gain experience like usual. You will see those green bars around the circle of the node you are unlocking keep filling up even at 20. You just don't gain levels anymore ( via xp anyway ), but the skill nodes still get the experience.
To level the subclass you have to actually equip it and then level it up like you did with the original class.
One cool thing I noticed last night is when you unlock your Subclass for your main character, you can then make a 2nd character that can automatically switch to the subclass without having to get to lv. 15. So I'm making a Defender Titan but starting it off at lv. 1 and not 15! Very cool

ugh, you know its weekend. constant disconnections :/
You are way way way way way more tanky.
A level 24 strike that you basically struggled for a long time to complete or was just too difficult to complete can become easy to complete in sub 30 mins with higher light stat gear.

So I finally finished the story missions. I feel like I know less about the Destiny Universe than I did about the Halo Universe after completing Halo CE.
Don't get me wrong! I love the game. The combat, the loot, the PvP. I'm just left wanting so much more from the Universe. Grimoire Cards only provide so much when I have so many questions about this new universe and all the stories I'd like know about but I guess Bungie didn't have time to tell me why they didn't have time to go into it.
Off to run strikes and compete in the crucible, for a chance epic purples and yellows.

Gonna jump in level 22 Strike see if I get anything.
PVP was kinda disappointing for me, I had some bag games which were due to lag but the majority of the matches I've been in we've won and I've usually been in the top 3 on my team with some being number 1 yet I was never getting rewarded and when I did it was some shitty ass weapon.
I just wish they gave us the gear sets/3 ships from the LE. Since you know, we fucking paid for it.
Getting loot period, not even good loot is difficult to come by. So adding that shit into a massive loot table that hardly drops anything decent to begin with is fucking bullshit.
Also, minibosses or bosses period should have guaranteed blue engram drops or something. I know raid bosses will drop loot, but killing pain in the ass bosses and not even getting glimmer is bullshit.
And I have not noticed ANY difference in quality of loot obtained in strikes from level 20, 22, or 24.
Basically, they need to seriously retool how drops work.

Thanks to Kaiell and Mammont from DestinyGAF EU, I've got the Strength of the Pack and Flawless Striker achievement (Complete a Strike with a full fireteam consisting of only your clan members, and without anyone in the fireteam dying)!
You're awesome, guys!
You're awesome, guys!
Happened to me twice so far, it's really annoying but fortunately rare. However the last time it happened I had Sepiks Prime down to 1/4 health in the weekly strike..
Oh god i know that feeling..
151 def helmet with enough light to bump me up a level, or 223 def helmet that doesnt..
i was just wondering since i was getting a unusual amount of disconnects today (the old i almost completed a strike trick)

I feel that Heavy Weapons are a waste, ammo never seems to drop for the big boss battles where you really need it only drops when weak enemies are close.

That's some bullshit
It's more than possible. I joined dead orbit right after level 20 and am almost at level 2 with that faction which unlocks legendary items. I maxed out my weekly crucible points yesterday and will do so again on Sunday so I'll have 200 to spend. Considering 3 out of 4 legendary armor items cost 65 crucible marks in that store, I should be able to grab those 3 by Monday night and still have 5 marks left towards getting the 4th item.
I can't sign in to the servers at all on PS4 in the UK. I just get the "Destiny servers are not available." error message. The one time it let me log in over the past 30 minutes it decided I wasn't a Plus member and wouldn't let me start any strikes/pvp.
not your fault. i think its completely random. funnily though, it seems like the first place never gets anything. at least thats whats happening to me since launch.

My char after getting those last 3 strange coins! (Was level 23 during the strike)
So going to write this here just for the sake of anyone wanting to try, it's the safest method I could come up with.
Mesh hacking zone
As soon as you deploy your ghost to hack the terminal/computer thing, run left towards the entrance to the hive cave, and jump over the fuel tanker thing, from here pick off as many enemies as you can, walking around the left side and jumping on top of the fuel tank closer to the little arena area when needed, a fusion rifle works extremely well against the fallen captains, cuts their shield away for fun.
Once you get it to 2/3 your ghost will mention that more fallen and now hive are coming - HIDE, right at the back where you first ran to, just sit tight and peek now and then, let them fight each other until one side is completely victorious, then again pick off the stragglers, continue this until it says 3/3 and you're able to push on to the next area.
Walker
So my technique here is to enter the arena, and cling to the left wall, and follow it all the way around the left side until you encounter some fallen and dregs, pick them off while still pushing forward and you should be able to slip in to the building to the left of the walker, theres stairs going up here, take them.
All you do then is peek out and pick off the dregs/fallen and switch to fusion rifle whenever a fallen captain appears, be mindful of dreg grenades.
Rather than do the usual attacking of its legs (though you may have to depending on skillset) i simply logged grenades at the walker, then tucked safely back half way up the stairs and went off of the sound to tell when the walker had dropped and exposed its neck - for me since the grenades were doing so much damage, it made more sense to pick off the stragglers and the sniping fallen while the tank was out of action.
Sepiks prime
Basically as I did in the video, remember to switch to fusion rifle whenever a fallen captain comes running in.

Why do enemies regenerate twenty seconds after dying?
Why does Peter Dinklage sound like he ate a handful of quaaludes?
Why do I have to solo Darkness Zones?

Well, I'll be...
A rare Engram just turned up some legendary greaves for my Titan. Here's my level 23 Titan:

Yep, gonna say it again: Legendary Engrams should not turn out to be of lower quality. They already drop rare enough.
1 because that's how it is, son. Suck it up.
2 because he did!
3 do you have to? I didn't think you had to
Gotta love being matched against weak ass scrubs.
Dat passive aggressiveness.

Still looking for people to group up for weekly heroic strike, Xbox One. GT is Derpcrawler, send me a message if you are interested.
Because they are instances for up to 3 players. Get some people into your fire team. If they didn't do it this way you could go into them with more people and it would totally unbalance the game.

What does a young man have to do to get some strange coins 'round here?!

Can you do it at level 20?
Can't you just equip it, then take it off once you got the level?
Trust me. I'm a PhD

1. MMO, good sir^^
2. How else are you going to see Wizards from the Moon?^^
3. The darkness zones are "instance" areas so only you and your team complete the mission. If people are on your fire team they will come with you^^
