Destiny 2's weekly blog post by Bungie, known as TWAB, recently included details on upcoming changes in the game. This includes the forthcoming Freelance in Trials of Osiris and the 30th Anniversary sandbox. With the Festival of the Lost in full swing, Guardians all over the system are busy farming candy and pages.

Freelance in Destiny 2 is a separate node for game modes used, especially in competitive PvP activities. Playlists such as Survival and Iron Banner consist of the Freelance, where Guardians cannot enter a match with another player in their fireteam. Every participant has to play solo with and against one another.


About the upcoming Destiny 2 Trials of Osiris sandbox, Freelance, associated rewards and more

This week's Trial of Osiris is just a few hours away from Destiny 2's daily reset. Saint-14 will be back experimenting with another version of "Trials Lab", much like the capture point that came before it. As mentioned earlier, Freelance is a particular matchmaking node for players explicitly looking to play solo.

The Freelance node will have separate matchmaking located right on top of the daily trials on the director. With no premade fireteam able to enter the Freelance pool, players may continue to earn a reputation in this week's trials and even go flawless with their fireteam members in the regular collection.

In addition, throughout the Freelance weekend, Destiny 2 trials reputation will be doubled. This means that the players will be earning more EXP on the Saint-14 vendor and will be able to unlock rewards quickly by ranking up.

Each ranking rewards the Guardians with a trials engram as well. So, for anyone looking to target-farm a god roll weapon or complete their armor collection, this weekend will be the ideal time to do so. One thing to note here is that if a player loses a match or two within a full card, it will not affect post-game rewards.

Guardians will continue to earn materials such as Enhancement Prisms, Ascendant Shards and Trials Engrams, with an increased chance of getting better stat armor during this period.

Guardians may have already witnessed a Destiny 2 seasonal challenge this week known as "Trial by Firing Squad". This challenge requires players to win a total of 20 rounds inside the Trials of Osiris, which will reward them with EXP, Bright Dust and Reed's Regret Linear Fusion Rifle.
