Just a week beforeย Destiny 2’sย Into the Lightย release, Bungie gave us a quickย sneak peekย at something called Pantheon that would be releasing on April 30th.ย While we’ve received loads of new things to learn about and spend our timeย onย in-game during the Into the Light free update, it’s stillย prettyย unique that we get something so intriguing and different from the usual mechanics of the game we know and love.ย However, Pantheonย definitelyย looks like something that will beย ratherย enjoyable for some of the more advanced Guardians and veterans.ย Pantheon gives us a chance to face off against raid bosses in aย wholeย new way. Let’sย take aย look at what exactly Pantheon is inย Destiny 2ย and how it works.ย
What Is Pantheon in Destiny 2? Answered
In essence, Destiny 2โs Pantheon is a way for Guardians to take on raid bosses in weekly challenges that increase in difficulties and rewards. In simpler terms, it’s a Raid boss gauntlet that allows you to fight a series of boss encounters from previous Raids in Destiny 2 and have the chance to earn new rewards, as well as prove your worthiness against wildly difficult bosses.
For each consecutive week forย a total ofย four weeks, a new difficulty will unlock, as well as additional encounters to take on with Pantheon.ย In the first week, you’ll have four boss encounters, whereas byย the fourth week, you’ll have to take on all 8ย of theย Pantheon bosses.ย
Within each Pantheon run, you’ll need to complete consecutive encounters and rack up scores similar toย the way thatย you would get points toward your score in Nightfall. The higher your score, the more rewards you will obtain. If you and your Fireteam can manage to achieve a Platinum score, you’ll get the most rewards possible.ย
When Will Pantheon End?
Pantheon is a temporary activity for now, but itย will possiblyย come back in the future.ย Pantheon is only active fromย April 30thย toย June 4th, when The Final Shape releases. After that, Bungie hasn’t released a specific timeframe on when we should expect Pantheon to be back inย Destiny 2, so for now, we just need to wait.ย
Destiny 2 is now available on PC,
