How to instantly get 300 power in Destiny 2: Ash & Iron

Destiny 2: Ash & Iron is giving away a free power boost for anyone lagging behind on the grind. The power farm in The Edge of Fate expansion has been under a lot of fire from the community, especially due to its repetitive nature and a punishing cost for the pinnacle cap. While Bungie is trying to ease the grind for the long-run, there is now a catch-up mechanic for everyone who hasn't been keeping up with th game.

Note that this catch-up benefits the veteran players as well, since each gear piece drops with a +3 power from their existing level. Additionally, the catch-up gear pieces can be picked up on ONLY one of your character, so choose accordingly.

Power catch-up guide in Destiny 2: Ash & Iron

To get the higher power gear pieces, launch your game and log in to the character you want to increase the power of. Next, open up Portal, and teleport on the Courtyard waypoint.

Portal Ops activities are giving away bonus drops as well, where you can get multiple +1 to +3 drops upon completion, granting you easy power boost beyond 300.

As mentioned earlier, these pieces are available for only one of your characters, and cannot be picked up on all three.
