I feel I am nearing completion of the tutorial but am still having gaps in knowledge on how to render light properly.

I've been trying different Light paths, but I honestly don't understand the extent of how they interact with each other. I haven't seen any example of what those numbers should be in the tutorial either, if someone knows please let me know. Previously turning off 'Filter Glossy' under caustics improved the shadow but it is now again a little bit too opaque, dunno when that happened. :D
Not too sure what I am missing out so any suggestions would be lovely! Thank you in advance
