We have all noticed that when you reach 265 light it extremely becomes slower to increase your light level. I have made this guide to help you increase your light overall.
1. Power up your character to 265 without opening any of the powerful engrams or exotic engrams you get from completing milestones.
These engrams will always drop over 265 and you will not want to waste them because you are able to hit 265 with just blue armor and weapons.
2. Do all milestones and complete all quests for exotic weapons.
These weapons will always drop higher than your current power so you can equip them or infuse them to increase your power.
3. What you should do is create a second character that is the same class as your first character. This will allow you to earn double the rewards for your character. When you hit level 20 transfer all your weapons and armor to the new character so you can further increase your power.
Then do all the milestones and quests for exotics again to increase your power.
4. When you are 280 power you are now able to craft legendary mods from the gunsmith. This will allow you to increase the power of your armor and weapons by 5.
Edit: Once you reach 280 or so you should attempt to do the raid because you get drops of engrams that are higher than you current power.
