Hey Guys!
I have hit level 34 in 3 days. Mostly play MP so it was not an issue though I still miss my mouse and keyboard. Anyways, A few questions that I have.
1. The DLC is worth purchasing? Since I am sure reaching level 40 wouldn't be difficult. What would one have to do after that?
2. Why do a few guys have double health bar in multiplayer?
3. I checked the other classes of warrior and was disappointed to see that story is same whether one chooses Titan, Hunter or Warlock. Getting different classes to higher level seem a lot of repetitive work. Do the other players work as well as Warlock in MP?
4. The response from PG destiny members was kind of surprising. Half didn't even accept friend request. The other half don't play the game... So any guys who really are into destiny?

After the release of The Taken King DLC last year, the traditional leveling system changed completely. You character level is now only a matter of gaining experience (doing story missions, completing strikes, turning in bounties e.t.c). It has zero effect on the amount of damage you will deal and receive.

Your damage dealing and receiving values are now determined through a new leveling system, dubbed your "light" level. It's simply an amalgamated value of all pieces of gear you've currently equipped. So this way it's a much more granular approach, and consequently, a steady climb up the "light" ladder. The highest light level you can achieve is 320 in the game as of right now.

1. I'd say The Taken King DLC is certainly worth the money since it improves the game and injected a TON of new content. The story was a huge step in the right direction, and the questlines which branch out after the main campaign has ended will last you several weeks at the very least.

2. Usually you'll find Warlocks and Titans running around with an overshield. But it's only temporary and is activated in certain situations. For example one of the subclasses of the Warlock can activate the overshield after registering a hit with their charged melee. If you have the time, you should try out the Warlock and Titan to really know how vastly different they are.

In the end, no subclass is better than the other. It's all a matter of how you play.

3. Well I don't know what answer you're looking for here. You're just stating the obvious. For the latter half of your question, see my point above.

4. I'm sorry to hear that. But there's a really big and healthy community of PSN players of Destiny in Pakistan. Perhaps they're not all on Pakgamers.

Sadly for you, I'm on Xbox One and play Destiny regularly.

Add me up

PSN : lowresolution666

Oh and TTK is surely worth the money. You`ll be having lots to things to do. USUF has answered all the rest of your questions. Be prepared for a lot of grind through the same missions again and again for stuff.

One thing that I found where destiny excels is the online play. No matter how slow the speed of your internet, you wont face any problems. Recently my net was having disconnection issues but it never caused the game to disconnect.
You can play solo but the essence of the game play lies in coop missions and multiplayer. Remember it is an online play only game.

I've seen you online on XB1 a few times. Don't hesitate to join up with me if you find me in a solo activity. I'm usually down to help a kinderguardian with any old quests.

Is it possible to achieve such a light power while remaining on a comparatively lower level such as 34?
na u will reach lvl 40 even when ur light 220 or 230 something.. increasing light level means better gear so when u grind for that u will eventually get xp so u ya both complement each other.. u dont have to worry abt light lvl as u have just started after reaching lvl 40 u will start getting good stuff if u do strikes and stuff u will cross 300 mark pretty quickly i guess.
