It’s Friday, and that means that Xur has arrived again to peddle his exotic wares for those that still don’t have everything. It also means Trials of the Nine is back, for those that still do it. Remember that there was a bug found in Trials before the update on Tuesday that required that they pull Valor from Trials of the Nine. It’s on the playlist where you won’t be earning any Valor.
I had a pretty good in Destiny yesterday. Got the Sturm catalyst and fully masterworked. Also FINALLY got The Huckleberry catalyst, and got it masterworked. I’ve been doing daily heroic adventures, with few days missed, since Warmind came out. Also completed an Escalation Protocol for the first time last night, though of course did not get the shotgun.
By the end of tonight, I should hit rank 50 with Dead Orbit, which means I’ll get the Graviton Lance catalyst tonight. Where are you guys and gals at on the Faction Rally rank, and who did you pledge to?
Here’s your daily reset for Friday, July 20th:
