Destiny The Dark Below Guide: 5 Starter Tips

3. Heroic and Nightfall Strikes Are a Higher Level Now

In a move that will likely be unpopular, the weekly heroic and weekly nightfall strikes have had their difficulty level increased to level 30. In addition, this week’s strikes are all about the expansion, meaning players who did not buy The Dark Below are locked out.

Luckily, getting to 30 isn’t too hard now, as the new faction equipment now has higher light levels. Still, it’s a dicey move, and I would be surprised if it isn’t addressed in a future post by Bungie Community Manager Deej.
