Destiny 2 Power Level Glitch Explained

Are you wondering why your Guardian’s power level is displaying lower than it should in Destiny 2? It’s quickly turning into a hot question for many Destiny 2 players! In fact, confusion surrounding the matter has become something of a roadblock for many players, since so many activities are gated by power level. Without further ado, here’s our guide!
What’s Causing Power Level to Display so Low?
Oddly enough, the root cause of this glitch mainly has to do with heavy grenade launchers. With the recent launch patch for the Season of Plunder, Bungie buffed heavy grenade launchers considerably more than they intended to. As a result, heavy grenade launchers have been disabled until the resulting balance issue has been resolved.
If you’re wondering how this factors into your power level, the answer is that disabled items don’t factor into your average power level whatsoever; it’s as though you have an item with a power level of 0 equipped in that slow, which drags your average down quite a bit.
As such, it’s advised that you use heavy weapons other than grenade launchers in the heavy weapons slot, as these will behave normally in terms of calculating your power level.

So How Do I Fix My Power Level?
To reiterate, if you’re using a heavy grenade launcher, you need to swap to another heavy weapon. It’s as simple as that! What have your experiences with the power level glitch been like? Be sure to let us know in the comments!

Galarian Legendary Bird Locations

Many Pokemon Go players are wondering how to go about getting the Galarian forms of the legendary birds in Niantic’s hit mobile game. Added to Pokemon Sword and Shield back in 2020, these Pokemon represent regional adaptations of the legendary bird trio that was first featured in the original Pokemon games—Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres. That said, they’re brand new to Pokemon Go, so let’s look at how you can expect to obtain them!
Galarian Legendary Bird Locations
Unlike many legendary Pokemon, the Galarian birds actually aren’t found in raids presently. Instead, players are reporting finding them via the new Daily Adventure Incense mechanic, which allows players to spawn a wide variety of random Pokemon for fifteen minutes so long as they are walking or otherwise moving around.
That said, evidence suggests that the new birds are fairly uncommon, so you probably shouldn’t expect to obtain them on your first incense. Fortunately, however, players can use this new mechanic once a day, so you should have as many chances as you need unless Niantic changes something later on.
Another potential obstacle in obtaining Galarian Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres lies in the fact that they have an incredibly low catch rate along with a very high flee rate. You can somewhat mitigate this by using a Golden Razz Berry along with an excellent throw, but don’t be surprised if you first legendary bird flees.
So How are the Galarian Legendary Birds Obtained?
As stated previously, these legendary Pokemon can be spawned through use of the new Daily Adventure Incense mechanic. If you’re lucky enough to spawn one, it can be caught like any other wild Pokemon. Be advised that the Galarian legendary birds have a low catch rate and a high flee rate, though, so good luck!
