Quick tip: Last chance to get these Crucible Triumphs

Another post about to-be-vaulted content, and this time we’re delving into the Crucible. Bungie has confirmed that several gametypes will be removed when Beyond Light launches, as well as a reorganization of generic Triumphs to act as more of a tutorial for new players. This means that a fairly sizable amount of Triumphs will be removed, as well as a particular cosmetic you might want to get while you have time.

Before we get into the Triumphs themselves, I’ll make a quick mention of resources you can use to help keep track of what you have left to do before November 10th.

We’re in the middle of our second Iron Banner of season 10, and…not much has changed. It’s still the same power-enabled Control-with-a-twist that we’ve had since its revamp in Forsaken, the rewards are pretty much the same, and being wiped out by someone thirty power levels higher than yourself is as frustrating as ever. If you’ve given up on Iron Banner at this point, I don’t blame you (there’s a reason I haven’t touched Trials yet).

However, there are a couple of new rewards, as well as our only ritual weapon of the season: Point of the Stag, a bow with perks suitable for PVP. Apparently it was supposed to come out last season, but for whatever reason it got delayed until season 10.

If you want these new goodies, or if you want to spend your Iron Banner Tokens to get some of those new enhanced armor mods, you’ll have to do a quest. And that quest is going to be very familiar.
