lol, We were doing that after we went fawless last Week to finish out the three losses and get a few passage coins.Out of the three games , two were against teams who had at least two players on their 9th game.It seems to match that way sometimes.

Defeats the whole purpose of Trials imo.

Yes, I saw that happened later on our second run. Not sure how to take it

Probably yes, but then again, it is all a lottery, for once I didnt get paired against DTR 50s lol

And better than paying someone to use your account to complete trials for you... :S So many people out there with emblems who can barely play normal crucible. Not too bothered about going to the lighthouse either, rewards are pretty decent and easy to get without needing to get there!

I finally decided to give Destiny a try this weekend and I was pleasantly surprised. I still haven't got The Taken King as I am going to see how much I like the base game before taking the plunge on the expansion.

I sent in a request to the xbox clan. Add me on xbl if anyone wants to laugh at the new kid 12 months late to the party ;D

I would be surprised if this is true for the coming week. Seems a little familiar....

Wasnt that last week?

I am pretty sure there is small arms this week

Yeah it was Valus. I remember cos I went in to solo it with my hunter and once it started realised I had all the wrong guns. Rather than restart I battled on. Must have taken over an hour and got absolute crap for a reward.

The Reddit megathread for the weekly reset had Cerberus Vae III as the Nightfall, it has since been taken down.
From looking at the comments it looks like it will be the Shield Brothers this week.

Shield Brothers - main modifiers are small arms and match game.

The reddit thread was updated early, probably reverting to the 10a.m. reset. Apologies, I'll do 100 laps of the Dreadnaught as punishment :D

Yeah you need 150 (I think) marks to buy it.

Passage coins are for using in the Trials of Osiris.

I heard that last time it had similar modifiers it was fine.

I'll probably give it a go at some point - but will dedicate game time to Raids first, as a priority.

Trials is only active between Friday evening and Monday night (or up to the Tuesday morning reset, not sure)

You won't because its only available Friday to Tuesday Reset and you need to be 290 light recommended. If your using a 170 YR1 Suros I don't think your near that level.

You need at least 3 passage coins to buy a boon. You'll need a fireteam of 3 to get into the game mode as well.
