I've been playing Destiny 2 since November I'm as yet hazy on how zenith gear functions. Explicitly what it considers your light level. For instance, If I have gear that puts my light level at 1565, yet it's unequipped when I get the apex, will the zenith drop actually be at that level? Or on the other hand will it go down to the stuff I have prepared?
In the event that you are veteran of Destiny 1, you're likely acquainted with the pre-decoding mix. This is where you prepared all of your most noteworthy Light stuff before you carried your Engrams to the Cryptarch so you would expand your benefits.
Before, this was somewhat unwieldy on occasion, and a colossal bummer on the off chance that you failed to remember a piece. In Destiny 2, you will experience those hardships no more.
Public service announcement: In D2 it's presently not worthwhile to prepare your most impressive stuff while decoding Engrams. We check for your most ideal loadout now

Presently the game will amazingly decide your power potential and give you enough compensation without making you dig through the entirety of your Armor and Weapons to prepare your best stuff. We as of late cornered Investment Designer Daniel Auchenpaugh and constrained him to make a few interesting commitments about character movement.
Enlighten us concerning this new framework. When do rewards decide their power, and how could still up in the air?
Daniel: Rewards decide their power at the time they're acquired. This intends that, when an engram drops in Destiny 2, it concludes its power at the time it drops. Likewise, when we roll rewards, we take a gander at your personality's level and your most ideal stuff to decide the force of the prize. This is valid for Crucible finish of-match rewards, Engram drops, Strike rewards, and so on. Note that a few sources can in any case deliver preferred gear over others; when you're investigating final stage content search for the "Strong Gear" compensations in tooltips assuming you're hunting the best drops.
What stuff do you use to decide a players best hardware?
Daniel: When we say "most ideal stuff," we take a gander at what the best situation is for your personality across your record. This intends that, assuming you are playing on your Hunter (like you ought to), we could utilize the Helmet you coincidentally left in the vault, the Boots you just got however haven't prepared, and the Auto Rifle that you neglected to move from your Warlock. Gear on different characters, in the vault, in your stock, or at present prepared are completely contrasted with find the best loadout you could have.
Your "current most elevated level" is a normal, adjusted down, of the greatest light that anyone could hope to find in every one of the 8 openings. The stuff doesn't need to be prepared, simply on your personality or in your vault (with the exception of weapons, which can be on different characters).
Furthermore, different Exotics count, despite the fact that you wouldn't have the option to prepare them. For instance, assuming you have an Exotic for each opening that is 1560, and generally your other stuff was 1559, your "current most elevated level" would in any case be 1560.
Zeniths drop at +1 or +2 from your ongoing most significant level, contingent upon the source. Attacks, for instance, are +2, while the 3x playlist exercises are +1.
