Destiny 2 - Trials Of Osiris Start Date - Eurogamer

What are the Trials of Osiris changes in Destiny 2 Season 15?

While Trials has returned, there have been quite a few tweaks. Under the philosophy of making this a far more approachable mode for everybody, changes target everything from Passages to ruleset and rewards. At a glance, these are the following:

Schedule:

• No Trials in Week 1 or before Raid World First - Your first lost does not count as a loss on your Trials card
• No Trials during Iron Banner

Access:

• Requirements for the Trials Access quest to life lifetime Valor ranks and kills have been reduced
• Trials now allows both matchmaking and queuing without a full fireteam
• Trials of Osiris now requires the annual expansion to play

Ruleset:

• Round time is reduced from 120 to 90 seconds
• Emotes stay in first-person camera and Swords can't be equipped unless you have ammo (this change takes place in Elimination and Survival as well)
• Special and Heavy ammo is no longer carried over between rounds

Rewards and Reputation:

• Trials tokens have been retired. Saint-14 will now host new Trials ranks, reputation and a rewards track
• Reputation is obtained at match complete, based on the number of rounds won on your ticket
• Ranking up gives you a Trials engram

Passages:

• Passages will no longer track losses, and either be Flawless or not
• Passages track up to 20 rounds won
• Passages have also been re-ordered (for example, Mercy is not useful unless you're trying to go Flawless), as well as having their prices significantly reduced
• Passages are now account-wide, so you can play and earn rewards on any of your characters with the same Passage
• Two weekly pinnacle challenges for Trials: Win seven matches total on a given weekend and win 50 rounds

Matchmaking:

• Matchmaking begins with players that have the same number of wins on the card and with similar Trials game performance of the given week
• If matchmaking takes too long, the 'similarity' is widened until it finds enough opponents for the match to start

Trials Labs:

• Capture/Elimination hybrid
• Trials Freelance: A separate node where only solo players can queue
• No Intro Quest: One weekend where players who have never played in Crucible can play

The above labs don't have a firm date as of yet, but developer Bungie said it will be announced at a later date ahead of the corresponding weekends for each.

The Season of the Deep is here alongside the Into the Depths quest. You can know go fishing too! Don't forget to keep an eye on the Lost Sector and King's Fall challenge rotation schedule!
