TWAB Highlights

Updates Commendations and Guardian Ranks

Bungie has reduced the Commendations required for Guardian Ranks 7 through 15.

New Requirements are:

  • Rank 7: 460 (was 750)
  • Rank 8: 790 (was 1,250)
  • Rank 9: 1,290 (was 1,750)
  • Rank 10: 1,530 (was 5,000)
  • Rank 11: 1,800 (was 6,000)

Stay tuned for more changes coming (one of the updates coming soon is a change to move the Lost Sector objective to a higher Guardian Ranks so fewer players are stuck at Rank 6).

New Exotic Quest

A new exotic quest went live this week called, t //NODE.OVRD.AVALON//. Stop by The Gulch on the EDZ to start this quest (hint: look around for little white cubes hanging around).

The reward from this activity is a brand new Exotic Glaive called Vexcalibur. This weapon has a perk that gives you a replenishable Void overshield. This weapon can also be crafted and upgraded.

Character Boost vs Campaign Boost

Lightfall has two types of boosts: Lightfall Character Boost and Lightfall Campaign Skip Boost.

  • The Lightfall Character Boost appears when a player hits the soft cap without completing Lightfall and provides high Power level gear without skipping the campaign.
  • The Lightfall Campaign Skip Boost appears when a player completes Lightfall and skips the campaign while unlocking Strand, and includes high Power level gear only if the main character has hit the Soft Cap.

Update 7.0.0.5

If you haven’t already, take a look at the latest patch notes for Update 7.0.0.5. Here’s a few of the changes that arrived with this update.

  • Exotic armor drop rate increased for legend and master Lost Sectors when solo.
  • Issue with Jötunn has been resolved.
  • Twitch Gift Sub Bounty reward now appears in the Cryptarch.

Add yours

  1. I have a question. Do you still have the Trails rewards info for the 1st trails weekend. I’m having some issues, they reset my rank from 15 back to 1 and I was just curious if you had anything about the rewards

    1. Rank up rewards are available the same every time Trials is available however, the rolls on the weapons change (unless something changed that I am unaware of). If you have played Trials a lot it you most likely are on the next reset tier (one reset or two resets, I am pretty sure two resets is the max number of times you can reset your rank).

      Here is that info:
      – The Flawless reward for the first weekend was (March 24): The Immortal Submachine Gun (Adept)

      Rank Up Rewards (changes every season)
      – Rank up Rewards (no resets): The Immortal (Rank 10) and Astral Horizon (Rank 16)
      – Rank up Rewards (one reset): Exalted Truth (Rank 10) and Unwavering Duty (Rank 16)
      – Rank up Rewards (two resets): The Inquisitor (Rank 10) and Whistler’s Whim (Rank 16)

      Let me know if you have any other questions.

      NOTE: I will be adding a history tab to the Trials page as well to be able to view past Flawless weapon rewards and rank up rewards.
