The Trials of Osiris has returned to Bungie’s Destiny this week and takes Guardians to The Cauldron, a map from The Dark Below expansion which features a central hub branching out into numerous passageways and platforms.
As Destiny’s end-game PvP content, the Trials of Osiris works a bit differently from normal Skirmish. Teams of three face each other to see who wins five rounds first. Respawns are disabled, which means you can only be revived by your team-mates, and you need a certain number of match wins to purchase gear from Brother Vance in the Reef. It should also be noted that each fireteam member has to purchase a scorecard and those who reach three losses first are out (until they pick up a fresh scorecard that is).
Fortunately, you can purchase buffs from Brother Vance to either forgive your first loss, start with a win on your scorecard or make the next win count for two wins. The loot this week includes The Infinite Theorem (a heavy machine gun); Cover of the Exile (Hunter helm); Hood of the Exile (Warlock helm); and Helm of the Exile (Titan helm). Thoughts on this week’s map? Let us know in the comments.
