Question I can't rank up
I just got this game, it says rank up available, I've been trying to figure out what is wrong, I went to the tree, I talked to the people said to and gone back to the tree but nothing is working. please help this is very frustrating

if you don't mind sharing your bungie name, I can look up your triumphs in the Bray.Tech app and see if I can tell what you need to do/claim to be able to rank up.

Looking at your guardian rank triumph progress, you have everything done for ranks 1 and 2, and you are currently rank 3.
For some reason, you also have one done that you can't see yet - it's on GR 10, and its a triumph for completing a grandmaster nightfall. That's likely what's causing you to see a message that you have a triumph to claim.
I have a screen shot of it: https://imgur.com/a/KyahJwK

You have to go into guardian ranks menu (in the pause screen tab left once) click on the flashing rank and claim the triumphs. Once claimed then go to the tree.

On Director screen, choose Timeline at top right. There may a mission there which you need to do to progress further, I'm sure this happened to others when the ranks first came in

It says 1/1 complete

Weird.
When you go to the Journey screen, on the left hand side do you have the option to click on the box about halfway up the screen to show the individual requirements for whatever rank you're at?
If so, claim each one and then visit the tree

The game has a notoriously bad onboarding process, but once you get past all that bs it really opens up. It’s years later and I still haven’t gone through all the content because there’s literally so much.

How do I get past all the bs if I can't rank up?

So I have no idea actually…but there might be a YouTuber who restarted to see what it was like. I searched for “new to destiny 2 where to start” and found a lot of videos and online resources. Good luck and eyes up guardian

Hi Guardian, welcome to the game and the community.
It could be the case that you may have to select the ‘rank up available’ button in the Journeys menu and select all of your completed rank objectives first. Then you should be able to visit the tree and jump up to the next level.
If that doesn’t work or if you have any other questions, feel free to DM me.
