In Destiny 2, the coolest merchant in the galaxy revisits you with extravagant goods. Xur the faceless cutthroat wants to sell you his items, are you ready to make him a little richer?
What happened in Destiny 2 this week? In Destiny 2, the latest TWaB has revealed new changes regarding the sandbox and many unpopular Exos. It could even lead to lots of “anarchy” in the loot shooter again. You can find out more here.
In addition, our Destiny 2 author Britta reported on the complicated love-hate relationship of the guardians. It’s a difficult topic, but despite the many inconsistencies, the majority of players always find their way back to the Traveler.
Last but not least, a leak regarding the poisonous fifth grade in Destiny 2 has also been published. However, we at the Destiny editorial team already have a theory as to what this might stand for.

Trials of Osiris on 08/12 – 16.08. – Map, weapons and info
Which map is it this week? Every weekend you only play on a fixed map in the trials.
If you are interested in playing the Trials as a team, MeinMMO recommends the callout maps via Warmind. This gives your fireteam a good description of where the opponents are on the map, which is useful information for the whole team.
How to get your loot: The Trials of Osiris feature a reputation ranking system. Your top loot reward from PvP matches is currently for:
This is the reward for a flawless run: Every week, a very special weapon awaits you on the lighthouse, which you get as a master version for your flawless run, i.e. 7 victories. You can earn the weapon until next Tuesday, August 9th at 7:00 p.m.
All Trials weapons have a Trials origin perk: Haste – Improves reload, stability, aim assist, and range when you’re the last member of your fireteam alive or fighting alone.
Once you have obtained your desired weapon, you can target your testing engrams at Saint-14 specifically to your desired weapon. On top there are Enhancement Prisms and Ascendant Fragments. Keep in mind that once you have a complete pass, your reward increases even more – even if you lose a game or two.
When do the trials officially start? The Trials of Osiris begins today, August 5th at 7:00 p.m. and ends with the Weekly Reset, August 16th at 7:00 p.m.
