The path to endgame content is entirely too obtuse

As a New Light who just started playing a little over 2 months ago, I have to say the progression from New Light to Raid-prepared is exceedingly frustrating. My experience has been after clearing expansion campaigns, and even after getting to max Light, the path from Nightfall Strikes > endgame content isn't entirely clear. I feel that without use of external resources, guides, and hours of YouTube videos it is rather arduous and it's rather frustrating to have the supposedly best content in the game (Raids and Dungeons) be so inaccessable. I don't know if I'm just too new and trying to rush things, but I'm really up against a wall trying to break in to more difficult content.

  • Watch Datto. He has a few videos on good raid dps, as well as extremely well put guides for every raid and dungeon. From there, load into an lfg, and just try your best. Most people are willing to teach as long as you have an idea of what you’re doing (from the videos) or you’re willing to try. You should also work on two things after getting the mechanics down, which are DPS and optimization: You should find yourself a good rocket launcher. I recommend crafting Apex Predator using Riven’s wishes. A good linear fusion will also do wonders, but most of them require some raid completions to craft or get a good roll. You should run exotics that are fun, but viable. I notice you’re using Ex Diris and Mothkeeper Wraps. This is a good trash ad clear build, but not one for high dps or higher level ad clear. I’d reccomend messing around with different exotics, and try to use an exotic primary. I say this because exotic primaries have consistent uptime and good perks (sunshot, quicksilver storm, etc) and you should not waste an exotic slot on a heavy or special weapon unless your build requires it.
