The game can be a little confusing about how players increase their power level, so we came up with some of the best tips to expedite the process.

1. Beat the Game

It seems simple enough, but the game really opens up once you beat the story and is when Destiny 2 is at its best. You have a lot more freedom and have access to new game features such as raids and nightfall.

If you want the best gear and best Destiny 2 experience, you need to beat the campaign.

2. Crucible

Destiny 2 does not have the most variety when it comes to PvP, but it is a good way to level up.

Item drops from these matches are decent, and you can easily work your way to an engram for crucible reputation. Plus, these matches provide a nice contrast to PvE content and an opportunity to meet new players.

3. Pay Attention to your Milestones

Your milestones are essential to keeping tabs on what you need to do to level up, and they offer you some nice opportunities to get experience and gear. It can be easy to disregard your milestones but they offer good rewards. They also provide variety outside of the main game.

4. Public Events

Destiny 2 is filled with numerous public events. Happening almost all the time, they offer a lot of experience for completing them.

They do not require a lot of time and will provide you with nice rewards in the form of gear, reputation, and glimmer. If you have been ignoring your public events, be sure to try the next one out.

5. Join a Clan

Destiny 2 is very much a social game. Yes, you can play it independently, but it is at its best when you are fighting alongside a group of allies.

A clan is a good way to do that. Clans will also allow you to have access to unique perks that will enhance your Destiny 2 experience.

These are just a few ways to get you on your way to help boost your power level in Destiny 2. For more on Destiny 2, be sure to head over to our guides page
