It’s no secret that Bungie’s Destiny 2 has had issues since Lightfall dropped. Whether it’s Legend Lost Sectors being too difficult, the Root of Nightmares raid being too easy, or questions from the campaign, there’s a lot to dislike. This extends to new features like Guardian Ranks, which are necessary to unlock new mods and lore books.
While added as a means to guide New Light players, almost every player, regardless of experience, has started at Guardian Rank 6. Leveling up requires gaining Commendations from fireteam members when completing objectives. The previous amount was pretty absurd, but Bungie has scaled back the requirement, according to a new tweet.
Descriptions for the objectives will be updated on March 16th to showcase the new requirements, so stay tuned. There’s no word yet on whether Bungie will address ways to cheese activities like Wellspring to farm Mastery Commendations and gain easy Guardian Ranks, but stay tuned.
Destiny 2: Lightfall is available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC. Check out our review of the expansion here.
Guardian Ranks Update: To more closely match our goals, we have reduced the required Commendations score to complete objectives across all Guardian Ranks.
Objective descriptions will be updated on March 16 to display the new Commendations requirements.
