This cap (let's call it the sunset cap) will come into effect one year after its initial debut in the game - meaning it'll be relevant for four seasons total (including its debut season).Every armour piece and weapon will have a max power level to which it can be infused to.Sunsetting was phased out for new weapons in February 2021. Sunsetting is the term to weapons and armour having a power level cap, meaning they can no longer be infused past a certain point based on when they were first introduced into the game.Īs described by Bungie, the system is designed so that 'strong weapons have their time in the sun, and whenever possible we want you to expect and prepare for powerful gear to cycle out of the endgame meta.' The Power Cap is the current cap, while the Seasonal Power Cap is the sunset cap - the maximum it will ever be. Watch on YouTube What is sunsetting in Destiny 2 and how does it work?
