In "Destiny: Rise of Iron," a guardian's light level is based on the gear, armor, class item, ghost shell, and other weapons. The basic level is usually up to 40 which can then increase gradually what players equip themselves. However, the most exciting part really starts when a player's light level reaches 350 which players can increase through missions, strikes, and raids. After a player reaches 365, more fun awaits them since Aksis Archon can usually be defeated by a player with a light level higher than that. So how does one achieve 365 light level and up?
The most straightforward thing to achieve that, as mentioned is fairly traditional. Some of these methods include exotic engrams, faction packages, nightfall, raiding, and Shax's weekly bounty.
To get exotic engrams in "Destiny: Rise of Iron," players need to buy an item called Three Coins from Xur, the vendor that pops up in any random location every Friday to Saturday. Players need to stuff themselves up with these items and use it before any crucible match or raid. This will yield a lot of exotic engrams which can be decrypted to a higher-level weapon, such as the Monte Carlo.
In faction packages, players can level up accomplishing various activities but the best choices are War Orbit, Future War Cult, and New Monarchy which can be accomplished by speaking to the vendors in the Tower. The same is true with Queen's Wrath, Crota's Bane, and House of Judgement. "Destiny: Rise of Iron" players who rank up any of these factions will soon find themselves equipped with high-level gear.
The Nightfall is one of the most favorite activities in Destiny because of the many rewards players can get from it. So for those who are 365 and above light levels, they can find great gears from this. Raiding, on the other hand, will earn players exotic loot and bounty even if they cannot beat the final boss.
Lastly, talking to Shax and complete whatever tasks he gives can give players one high-level item in "Destiny: Rise of Iron" game. Players can find Shax in the Tower where they can get their instructions.
