How to get pass power cap 1827?
All I get from pinnacle are 1810 items. Do I need to level up my guardian rank over 10?

No. You cannot bypass the power caps in the difficulty modes regardless of what DLC you own.

For example, if you were to play ANY Nightfall on Legend difficulty, you'd be capped at 1820 even if you had a PL of 1821 or 1840. Similarly with Legend Lost Sectors. Masters are capped at 1815, I think; Grandmasters about the same, but with a greater disparity with enemy levels.

Edit:
If you meant that you wanted to go over the 1810 pinnacle cap easier, then yes a seasonal pass (and/or owning the latest expansion) does make it easier, in a sense. But as long as you own the DLC that gives access to a specific activity - for example owning Witch Queen to do Vow of the Disciple - you should be able to do those activities to chase pinnacle gear.

Pinnacle gear is +2 above your highest-achieved power level of the season (capped at 1810). So if you had the right gear in your inventory and equipped them to get to 1808, but you have a preferred set that makes you 1807, then the game treats your highest PL as 1808 when calculating pinnacle drops. You'd get 1810 pinnacles instead of 1809.

DIM and other websites - as well as the game director next to the map screen - tells you what activities currently have pinnacle engrams to chase.

Seasonal artifacts are free for everyone. With them you'd be boosted beyond whatever level you are, including the pinnacle cap.

1810 is the hard cap for gear until TFS.
I've seen some player powered level 1849ish.

The rest comes from the artifact. Artifact is leveled by EXP (bounties, weekly and seasonal challenges, quests, kills, etc). GM locks your level at 1815, master content - at 1820, so anything above that is irrelevant.

That's crazy... it could take a few HUNDRED hours to grind XP to get a +20 to +25 boost from the seasonal artifact... let alone +39. I myself have finally reached >1830 or so (for my heavily-played seasons, like Witch and Seraph, I usually end up at +25 ish). I took a lot of breaks this season.

Also, it really doesn't matter... get to +20 to get the associated seasonal triumph, but you're pretty much set at +5. No joke. The harder difficulties cap you at 1815 power level or so.

1810 is the pinnacle cap until Final Shape. Anything beyond that is the artifact level. Have fun grinding bounties!
I remember at 2022 before I could no longer play due to win.7 restriction and for that doing IB bounties to get +2 pinnacle gear would for sure make pass over power cap. And for that seasonal challenges like legendary lost solo and such were possible but now I don't see how if having to pay extra to play more.

Only paid for one expansion and not single a season. Bit of upsat about.

When you see crazy high numbers like that, that player did AFK farming in either a specific shadowkeep mission, or the golgerath maze in Kings Fall.

And yes its pointless. For them its just "big number = cool"

Just stick to getting to 1820 and call it a day, almost everything caps you now anyway so there's hardly any point in getting a bigger number..

AFK xp farming, you cannot buy XP artifact power. but yes you do not really need above 1820 anywhere, unless youre and uber dps game where i believe the highest cap is 1830

there is this certain guy, im not going to name him for obvious reasons, you can mostly find him on nessus at the public event flag of artifacts edge.
he is mostly on his warlock, just standing there, casting his healing well from time to time to not get killed. he used to be on his titan back in the day, casting his barricade.
acting like a bot this pissed me off really, as i detest people using this kind of ♥♥♥♥ to get an "advantage"

i managed to get him killed a couple of times, unfortunatly, there are always the good hearted people that went over to revive him, only to realise they basicly revived a bot. some of them then tried to get him killed also, and sometimes they did.
why am i saying all this? well, at one point, before they took it off the name tag, this guy was sitting on season level 1200+ wich meant he was doing it all day, every day.

sad really, but hey, i havent seen him in a couple of weeks, and really hope i dont see him again.

The only benefit in intentionally raising seasonal levels that high, well above a few hundred, is the potentially greater gain of total Bright Dust engrams (because every few levels or so you earn a BD engram).

That means people gaming the XP system like that are basically sabotaging the Eververse economy, since BD engrams have a small chance to reward quite a few bright dust. The more engrams one earns, the more dust they could get.
Would legacy content allow me to overpass this limit or only seasonal access? Since its on sale.

So...you saw a guy not doing anything to bother you and decided to grief him? Mature.
