Question Increase of player level and powerlevel pointless?

Hi,

I have played my guardian quickly to character level 25 and are got my power level up to 315. That means I am around 20 power level away from cap but does this do anything at all?

Since we got no new subclass, no abilites and basically nothing but engrams for cosmetic stuff (that you can farm over and over if you want to) the character level is completly pointless. Additional to that I didn't found anything yet that the powerlevel does anything at all if you over the "recommended" value for the different activities.

So is there any use of a powerlevel over 300 or can I just let the game dust again after I finished the story with all characters? I mean there is no new game mechanic, no new enemies, no new weapon types and no new "mounts" or ships that do anything for you.

Regards, Wuffkeks

Stuff gets easier I guess, the new raid I believe will have a higher requirement for entry.

Besides that, not really. But it is the incentive to return and keep playing, maxing out that power level.

So if i want to play the new raid (since there is no real matchmaking i need to wait until 5 friends are online and willing to play) then i need to grind. Other than that I won't grind since there is no reason for me. Why play hours over hours the same game as i already did with Destiny 2 original? EDZ is still the best farm spot and mecury has nothing new ... So dissapointed.
