Summary
Bungie has announced changes toDestiny 2’s pinnacle PvP activity, Trials of Osiris, that will make obtaining Adept weapons easier. TheseDestiny 2adjustments aim to improve the experience for players by reducing the effort required and enhancing the rewards for participating.
Adept weapons are among the most coveted rewards inDestiny 2’s Trials of Osiris, offering unique stat bonuses for both PvE and PvP, making them highly desirable. These weapons serve as status symbols and come with Adept Mods that enhance specific stats, providing an advantage over standard variants. Trials Adept weapons rotate on a weekly basis, meaning there’s only one particular weapon available each week. To obtain these weapons, players must achieve seven consecutive victories in Trials of Osiris matches without any losses, a challenging feat that requires exceptional skill and strategy. Successfully completing this challenge grants access to the Lighthouse, where players can claim their weekly Adept weapon along with a random Adept mod.
In a recentblog post, Bungie noted the positive impact of the modifications introduced since Season 21 to Trials, which include revisions to Passages and substantial increases in post-game rewards. Then it addresses a new noteworthy change involving the Passage of Persistence: now, when playing as a trio, losses will no longer erase wins, allowing players to keep their wins even after a loss, provided they complete the match. This means players only need to achieve seven wins to earn the weeklyAdept weapon drop, regardless of their number of losses. However, quitting a match will still result in a win being subtracted, meaning that players must finish matches to benefit from this change.
What to Expect from Trials in the Future
The post claimed that Bungie’s goal is to make Trials more rewarding and accessible, with plans to introduce a new 3v3 mode similar to how ittweakedDestiny 2’s Iron Banner, where loot isn’t primarily dependent on wins. They also intend to refine the Challenger pool by enhancing Flawed Card rewards and providing incentives for win streaks. Given these claims, players can likely expect to get a more inclusive and balanced Trials experience that accommodates different play styles and skill levels.
The change appears particularly advantageous for new players, as it reduces the difficulty in earning rewards and makes the overall experience less punishing for those still developing their skills. However, it’s important to note that any loss with a Passage of Persistence will still prevent access toDestiny 2’s Lighthouse. Players will still need to win seven consecutive matches to earn that privilege.
