Destiny: Rise of Iron players are racing to get their Light as high as possible before Wrath of the Machine launches later today, but they’ve hit a wall: artifacts are thin on the ground.
If you’re picking up engrams from 365 Light level tier activities, there’s a chance they may decode into artifacts.
You can then equip this artifact to increase your Light level, and go hunting for other gear to match it.
It’s true, and if your lowest Light level gear is an artifact, there seems to be a very good chance of grabbing a Rare (blue) artifact with a higher Light level than your current one.
