This guide is outdated.

  • Here is a quick edit to bring it up to speed with Year 2
  • All levels are now acquired by basic experience. Vanguard Bounties, Story Missions, and quests are a good way to level up fast. Focus on bounties first then complete story missions. Once you reach level 40, work on leveling your light level.(an average of ALL attack and defense of your equipped gear)

Level 1-4

Level 5-10

  • Continue to do Story Missions along with the bounties. Do Story Missions on Hard Mode for large Experience bonuses. You should also make sure that you are at the same or higher level as the Hard Mode missions.
  • If you are not at the same or higher level as the Hard Mode Story Missions, you should complete bounties first to level up.
  • You can obtain additional bounties from the Postmaster NPC. You can only have 5 bounties at a time, make sure you choose the easier ones and do not pick the ones that require you to complete tasks in Locations you've yet unlocked.
  • Do not do Strikes yet. They are quite difficult at your current levels.

Level 11-20

  • Prioritize bounties over Story Missions. Bounties will grant you a lot of experience points and allow you to level up fast.
  • Only do Story Missions you have not done or if the bounty calls for it. Only do Story Missions on Hard.

Level 20

Level 21-25

  • Note that you can only obtain 100 Vanguard Marks per week.
  • Helmets cost 120 Marks each while other Armor pieces cost 65 Marks each.

Level 25

  • At Level 25, you unlock Level 28 Weekly Heroic Strike and Nightfall Strike. You can get a few high-level friends to escort you through these Strikes. Just sit back, let them do all the work and try not to die.

Level 26-27

  • When you get more and more Legendary gear, you will want to level them up. You want to unlock all of their upgrades BUT DO NOT actually purchase all of them. By levelling un-wanted Legendary gear you can dismantle them for more valuable upgrade materials such as Ascendant Shard from armor and Ascendant Energy form weapons. When dismantling, fully levelled gear yield more material than under-levelled ones.

Level 28

Level 29-30

  • Players can obtain level 29 by upgrading regular Legendary gear but they will need Vault of Glass gear to reach level 30. Players should save their Ascendant Shards to upgrade Vault of Glass gear and Exotic gear in order to obtain level 30.
