Yes, my question is “since when?” It didn’t previously work that way.

I feel like it's been two seasons or so since they changed to that system (post 1300 soft cap), and it especially sucks that it no longer kicks in at the soft cap like before (or rather, it likely still uses the 1230 Beyond Light softcap as the basis for Legendaries being on-level).

In slowing down the people at cap at the end of each season, Bungie has outright punished anyone below that level with an increased grind, which is poop.

Legendaries/rares are on level until 1310, minus vendor drops which are always 20 behind. IMO that's fine, it really doesn't take long to ffind a drop for a gap, especially if you do something like pvp.
