    This thread is for all general discussion, questions, thoughts, musings, wonderings, etc. for the Trials of Osiris.

    FAQ

    What is Trials of Osiris?

    • Trials of Osiris is the pinnacle PvP activity. Every Weekend, the best players compete in 3v3 Elimination for one goal: Go Flawless.

    • To start, head to Saint-14 in the Tower Hangar and buy one of the possible passages (see below).

    • To reach Flawless and get to the Lighthouse, you need to win 7 matches without losing one.

    • It uses Win Based Matchmaking, which means you'll face teams with a similar amount of wins on their card. Matches will get harder as you win more matches.

    • There is NO fireteam matchmaking. You need to team up yourself!

    • Power Level matters, however bonus power from the artifact is not enabled.

    How Long do the Trials of Osiris last?

    • Event Starts: Every Friday at Daily Reset (1700 UTC).

    • Event Ends: Following Tuesday at Weekly Reset (1700 UTC).

    Where do I go to find Guardians to compete with in the Trials?

    Bungie, don’t be afraid to break the mold al little bit with warlock armor.

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 07:45 PM PDT

    Gives us some real armor, I'm talking chest plates, pauldrons, the works. Give us cowboy dusters(and shoulder plates) with bullet belts and and place for a hand cannon on our hip. Gives us some tactical armor with with a knife strapped to our chest, and cool looking minimalistic helmets(and shoulder plates).

    TLDR: warlock armor is in a bad spot right now and I think they need to break the mold a bit and not be afraid to give us some real armor and not dresses

    For the love of the Traveller. Can we please get some slimmer Titan Armor.

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 06:45 AM PDT

    I understand the "titan being a tank" premise and why the armor is so big (which I'm certain is just bungie meming at this point). However can we get some slimmer Titan armor. Look at how clean Titans looked in D1. Titans actually looked proportionate.

    No hate to anybody who likes them as they are now, more power to you, but for people like myself (maybe a small minority, idk) just some new sets that don't make my titan look like a chode would be great and would make me want to use titan again.

    Where are the Fallen Houses now? A Recap Before Beyond Light

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 11:19 AM PDT

    With Beyond Light mainly focusing on Eramis' efforts to unite all the Fallen that are left, I wondered exactly which houses could join Eramis. Are they joining for sheer desperation? Do they share her goals? Or, would they rather not join due to some major conflict of interest. Rejecting the very thing that gave you your Golden Age to worship its antithesis isn't very kosher, so I've heard.

    So, I decided to look at where the Fallen stand now, as of July 24th. Note that this is subject to change, though I don't see anything major involving the Fallen until Beyond Light.

    Some minor spoilers ahead involving the Rimed Ghost Shell, the Beyond Light preorder one.

    House of Devils: Severely weakened and splintered after major losses to Guardian forces, the SIVA Crisis, and fighting the Red Legion. Sometime after all hell broke loose in the Prison of Elders, Eramis, one such escapee, rallied together Fallen loyalists from all houses to reform the House of Devils. After a failed attempt to reclaim SIVA in the Tower Vault (no, not yours) thanks to Mithrax and us, Eramis ditched the Devils banner in favor of her own banner, proclaiming herself the Kell of Darkness. As of Arrivals, the majority of the Devils have been absorbed by the House of Dusk out of desperation, but some small groups of Devils do remain. Many remaining Devils would come to be united under the House of Darkness.

    House of Exile: Effectively no longer exists. An interesting note is that shortly before the Red War, the House cast out eight Dregs that would eventually come to be known as the Scorned Barons after banding together under Fikrul in the Tangled Shore, one of the Dregs also called the Fanatic. However, the Scorn seem to have not influenced the fall of the House of Exile. The ones responsible were the usual suspect: Guardians. Most, if not all Exiles reunited with the Fallen under the new House of Dusk in the Red War. All Fallen activity on the Moon vanished, and it would not be until Shadowkeep that Dusk, not Exile would return to the Moon. With all this in mind, it is almost certain that the House's banner has been snuffed out.

    House of Winter: Largely unknown beyond basic information. Even before the Red War they were in a tight spot thanks to our assassination of Draksis, their Kell and meddling by Skolas during the Wolf Rebellion, (though Winter abandoned Skolas after his capture and death at our hands) and the loss of an Archon Priest and a Baroness thanks to Oryx's interference. By the Red War, most of Winter was absorbed by the House of Dusk, but significant remnants were still present. Our Guardian encountered Winter in the Reef right before Ghaul's invasion, and these remnants would choose to ally with Eramis under House Darkness.

    House of Wolves: Doomed. After Skolas' failure to unite the Houses under the Wolf banner, Keldar, a Wolf Archon Priest, and Orbiks Prime, their rebuilt Prime Servitor, attempted to reunite the Wolves on Mars, carving out a good portion of land taken from the Cabal Blind Legion during the Taken War. Once again, our Guardian, led by Variks' intel, killed Keldar and destroyed Orbiks Prime, this time for good. However, it would not be until Reksis Vahn, the Scorn Hangman, destroyed all of the Servitors under the House of Wolves would the House truly be broken. All remaining Wolves assimilated into House Dusk. Any that did not reunite were killed, starved, or lated reunited under the House of Darkness. The banner is effectively dead.

    House of Judgement: Variks persists. Variks, the Loyal is the only known member and likely the only Fallen to bear the Judgement sigil. With Reef losses from the Taken War only staggered by the Red Legion's arrival, Variks doubted his role in the Reef and began to slowly go mad without Petra or the Queen to guide him, and after dreams telling him that he had failed and that the Great Machine was no more than a "dark mirror". Variks would be responsible for the Prison Break in Forsaken and indirectly responsible for Cayde's death after he made his Warden reboot the security systems, causing all cells to open up. Before fleeing the Prison, Variks declared himself the Kell of Kells and invited anyone listening to bow before him. He has been spotted on Europa with Eramis, but his status among the House of Darkness is unknown.

    House of Kings: Betrayed and Scorned. The Kings largely share the same story as the other Houses: Took losses to Guardians and Oryx, then eventually pulled out of their lairs to reform under the House of Dusk. What separates the Kings is their relationship with Uldren Sov. Before Forsaken, Uldren became a subordinate under the House of Kings by allowing himself to be captured to meet Craask, their Kell. Craask would later broadcast a message to all Fallen: Unite, or perish. Almost simultaneously, the Kings vanished from the Cosmodrome and the House of Dusk emerged, making Craask the most likely reason the House of Dusk exists besides desperation. Unfortunately for Craask, Uldren had met and befriended Fikrul, the First Scorn. Uldren swiftly assumes control of the House and reduces Craask, the last surviving Kell, to a Dreg. Craask survives, but the remaining Kings are wiped out by Uldren and Fikrul. They are then raised to life again by Fikrul, becoming the Scorn.

    House of Dusk: Pretty much the only significant House left. As the amalgamation of all Fallen Houses, Dusk is the largest House in Fallen history and the only House to have a major presence after the Red War. Over the course of 2 years, however, the House would be weakened by Guardian incursions, battles with the Hive, Vex, Cabal, and Scorn, and splintering by groups such as the Kell's Scourge and the House of Light. By Shadowkeep, the House is extremely fractured and divided, but still a threat to the System as they retook most, if not all of their lost territory on the Moon. Interestingly, their leadership, if they even have any, is unknown. By Arrivals, the House is evacuating their presence on Titan en masse, fearing the Pyramid looming above the waves. With Eramis' rise to power, Dusk is fractured even further as thousands of Fallen join her banner. It is very likely Dusk will fall apart during Beyond Light, to be replaced by Eramis' or even Mithrax's banners.

    House of Light: Rising to power. One of the newest Houses, it was formed by Mithrax, the Forsaken after being spared by a Guardian searching for a methane reactor on Titan. He pledged his banner as one allied with the Traveler and Humanity, becoming the first House to do so. The House of Light would be seen again during the Devils' attempt to reclaim SIVA, as Mithrax led an assault to delay the Devils while the Guardians reclaimed the Outbreak Perfected. The assault was a success, and Mithrax continued to build up the House of Light. By Worthy, the House was big enough to attract Saint-14's attention. Fingers crossed they play a key role in fighting the House of Darkness.

    TL;DR: All of the Fallen Houses from D1 are a shadow of their former self, and most of them joined the House of Dusk. Dusk itself is on the verge of crumbling due to infighting and Guardian attacks. Mithrax's House is only growing in strength. The status of the House of Darkness is unknown, but is assumed to be on par with the old Houses. Hopefully Light and Dark fight it out in Beyond Light.

    TL;TL;DR: they're all dead except mithras and eramis lmao

    EDIT: Since many of you have asked about the Spider, no, his Fallen are not a House. He runs a crime syndicate, wherein all the Fallen there are paid to work for him as mercenaries or bodyguards. No docking, Kells, or hierarchy of sorts. Just Spider at the top running the show.

    I’m proud of the Fallen for managing to Mass Produce Insurrection Prime’s mechsuit.

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 12:54 PM PDT

    I'm already intrigued that SABER 2 was just a prototype before Heavy Shanks got mass produced.

    Arming a suped up Servitor with a Nuke under the Traveler?

    That's arguably their closest victory in recent years, might as well capitalize on it.

    Of course we're still gonna wipe the floor with them in Beyond Light's campaign, but you can't deny the Fallen's devotion and just how tech savvy they are.

    Trials of the Nine did one thing much better. Rewardstructure.

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 10:27 AM PDT

    In TotN we could visit the spire after 1 win and turn in Tokens. And we could chose our reward from 3 pieces each on 3,5,7 wins and flawless.

    Currently many players only play when the 3 win reward is something they want. Would be better chances when it were 3 options every week.

    If we have to put up with Champions, let us see our Ordeal rating at all times during the Nightfall

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 07:53 PM PDT

    Champions are obnoxious to fight regardless, but Bungie can you at least let us see our current rating (Platinum, Gold, etc.) at all times during Nightfall Ordeal runs?

    It is demoralizing to spend 2 hours (between all the wipes and the eventual success) in a Master Nightfall only to get 2 ENHANCEMENT CORES because you got a Gold rating instead of Platinum, because somewhere somehow you missed a Champion even though you killed everything you saw.

    I would like to know I wasted 2 hours BEFORE finishing the strike.

    The Corrupted strike is especially frustrating, because we left zero red on the radar and somehow still got Gold. If a Champion falls off a cliff or gets hit by a train or killed by the Architects or something else that isn't the players fault, stop penalizing us for spending an evening grinding through a Nightfall.

    I hope for future seasons, we get missions like the Saint 14 ones in season of dawn.

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 07:27 PM PDT

    Sure season of dawn had a lot of flaws, but man were those Saint 14 missions good. I had so much fun with them. I guess we saw a little bit in season of the worthy but it didn't feel as impactful.

    A season and a half later and I see myself thinking about it from time to time.

    I hope beyond light has campaign missions as good as that.

    Some advice to Newbies wanting to raid but too anxious to try

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 12:18 PM PDT

    Ask the sherpa questions. In one of my recent sherpa runs, one of the people I was teaching did one of the most helpful things ever: Ask your sherpa questions on anything you're confused about. I know people think that the anxiety will have people laugh at you, with thoughts of "HA he had to ask THAT question?", but reality is good sherpas and teams don't say that. You don't need to worry about sounding stupid, or wasting anybody's time. It's always more helpful to ask, and people in the team were quicker to answering my specific guys question than I was, and I was pretty much explaining entirely solo beforehand.

    Ever since CBMM was supposedly implemented, every game has me at poor/fluctuating connection?

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 03:46 PM PDT

    Never use to be the case. I've opened all recommended ports, check my speeds pretty much daily..definitely not an issue on my end. I understand that with more people working from home/ kids not in school, perhaps things are bogged down with the increase in player activity..but every game? No matter what time of day? Anyone else experiencing the same? I'm on xbox btw.

    EDIT: I've also noticed periodic lag spikes in PVE content as well, including solo. When running any dungeon solo, the ads have a 2-3 second window where they stop moving and stop taking damage. They then warp, and play resumes as usual. This happens every 3-5 min or so.

    An exotic void rocket launcher that shoots the Cyclops blast.

    Have it do the same charge up time and sound with the same massive damage. If you go critical while holding it, it shoots out the Cyclops void AOE blasts. Cyclopean Vision.

    For those disappointed by the Stasis being Ice:

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 09:36 AM PDT

    It makes sense. First, we have Europa, a freezing cold ice world where it's likely we'll get these powers.

    Second, Darkness has always been associated with cold. Have you ever looked closely at the bank during Gambit? It has frost and ice crystals all over it. All signs have always pointed to the Darkness-themed subclass being cold and icey.

    My guardian is just a space pirate

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 08:14 AM PDT

    ... and I feel guilty about it. I just fly from planet to planet looking for the best loot. Every time I get to the tower after doing those 8 pointless vanguard bounties, Big Z is looking at me like "I'm proud of you, son" and I can't push the buttons to get to my loot fast enough. I only care about killing bad guys because they give me loot, and the only reason I want more loot is to blast other guardians. F no I aint containing no darkness, it's bringing me freezy stuff.

    Every time I come back to the tower somebody is praising me for all the good I've done ... like no I just wanted a new chest piece with a higher mobility roll. If y'all folks in the tower didn't give me stuff, I wouldn't even come back here. Our friendship is a sham.

    Sorry Eris, I don't care about your nightmares.

    Sorry Zavala, I'm not doing more than 3 strikes a week.

    Sorry drifter, gambit is stupid.

    It's not y'all, it's me. And I'm sorry(ish).

    They are so overlooked right now that there won't be any viable Linearfusions after sunsetting. And even if there would be one people wouldn't use it against bosses because they do no viable damage whatsoever. Plus atleast Sleeper would get a buff.

    Ye gods, Trinity Ghoul is awesome.

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 07:59 PM PDT

    So, I mentioned in another thread that I've oddly been getting a bunch of random exotics dropping from ordinary gameplay lately. One of those was Trinity Ghoul. Looking at it I thought to myself: You know, this looks kind of cool, I'll run with it for a bit." And yeah, it was pretty decent, but the requirement to get one critical kill and then your next arrow would have chain lightning was just inconvenient enough that I figured I probably wouldn't stick with it.

    Then I glanced at what the catalyst would give me. Cue me spending the next several hours getting the catalyst and grinding out kills for it. Now that I've finally got it, this thing is AMAZING. Beautiful tool for frying crowds, and the spreadfire function allows you to unleash the lightning across an even wider area. I love it: it's like Riskrunner, but better because instead of electrocuting myself to activate the lightning power I just have to kill one enemy.
