How gear levels work in Destiny 2 and the max level cap explained
Destiny 2 s levelling system operates with three different caps to work towards, each requiring different sources of gear to level up past. Here s what they are at a glance for Season of the Chosen:
Base Gear level - 1110 Power Level
Legendary Gear cap - 1250 Power Level
Powerful Gear cap - 1300 Power Level
Pinnacle Gear cap - 1310 Power Level
Technically, however, the level cap goes beyond 1310 with the artefact. Introduced in late 2019 with Shadowkeep, every new season will give you this item, and by levelling it up with XP, you ll receive a series of bonuses - including temporary additional levels that adds to your Power, allowing you to go beyond the level cap. (Or, if you re not there yet, a slight nudge towards it.)
