Bungie is bringing some quality of life changes to other elements ofDestiny 2as well including changes to theVanguard Strikesplaylist, which is now being renamed Vanguard Ops, and the reveal of two new Nightfall weapons. Bungie took to its website to highlight all the changes that will be coming toDestiny 2in the coming weeks in a “This Week At Bungie” post.

The Trials of Osiris is a competitive PvP game mode available toDestiny 2players who have purchased the latest annual expansion, which is currently Beyond Light, though Witch Queen will next be required once it launches. The Trials of Osiris map and loot drops change with each week inDestiny 2, with the best loot saved for those who can complete the Trials of Osiris in a flawless run. With the introduction of Season 16, Bungie teased two guns that will be available in upcoming Trials of Osiris runs. They highlighted a returning favorite through a picture, but ultimately didn’t reveal anything about the upcoming new one.
Bungie’sexperiments with the Trials of Osiris game modehas been criticized by fans since its introduction, however it seems Bungie may have listened to the criticism. Alongside the start of Season 16,Destiny 2is changing the way players gain Reputation, accelerating the gain for players after Bungie revealed that Reputation Ranks were being approached differently than they had first anticipated.
In terms of numbers, the Trials Reputation gain will be increased by fifty percent or more forDestiny 2players who aren’t constantly attempting to go for the flawless runsand gear. Sadly though, where “The Witch Queen” is concerned, players will not be able to have an accelerated Reputation gain for what Bungie terms as “technical reasons.”
Destiny 2is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
