“This change should allow New Lights enough time to get familiar with the core of Destiny<\/a>\u2019s<\/em> Gear Power system before stepping into the broader game without holding them back,” Bungie said in this week’s blog post<\/a>. “You can also easily achieve the Soft Cap by playing through either difficulty of The Final Shape campaign.”<\/p>
A controversial change, though, is that The Final Shape<\/a><\/em> will also remove the Power limits from legacy gear. Items earned within the first couple of years of Destiny 2 <\/em>have been Power-capped up to this point, meaning they can’t be used in Power-enabled activities. Many players began to dismantle their old items, but Bungie says it regrets that there’s no way to bring them back.<\/p>
