How to get to the Lighthouse in Destiny 2

Trials of Osiris is the endgame PvP mode in Destiny 2 that comes around every weekend. While it may sound intimidating, you can complete your Passage and reach the Lighthouse for some sweet loot, as long as you’re persistent enough.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Lighthouse in Destiny 2 and how to reach it.

How to reach the Lighthouse in Destiny 2

Get seven wins on the Lighthouse Passage

To get to the Lighthouse in Destiny 2, pick up the Lighthouse Passage from Saint-14 in the Tower and play Trials of Osiris until you get seven wins on the card. Reaching seven wins grants you access to the Lighthouse, but the longer your win streak, the better the rewards.

The Trials of Osiris Passage doesn’t give access to the Lighthouse. It’s a more Iron Banner-like experience, where you play against players of a similar skill level and get base rewards, including weapons and armor, by completing matches.

After you get seven wins on the card, you get access to the Lighthouse. Open Crucible Ops in the Portal, and select the Lighthouse Simulation activity to take you and your fireteam into the Lighthouse. Walk up to Saint-14 and loot the Lighthouse chest.

With the chest looted, you can reset the Lighthouse Passage to try again and get a higher win streak for more loot and even cosmetic glows on your Trials gear. Alternatively, you can keep playing to earn additional rewards based on the highest win streak this week.

Higher win streaks grant more rewards from the Lighthouse chest, but the loot’s quality also depends on your Power level and Guardian Rank. Even if you have a high win streak, low Power means you might end up with a bunch of Tier 1 and Tier 2 drops.

the more the merrier:

Each match completed with a full fireteam grants a bonus chance for additional rewards.

The rewards you can get from the Lighthouse chest include:

  • Trials weapons
  • Trials armor
  • Enhancement
  • Enhancement Prisms
  • Ascendant Shards

There are also cosmetic rewards that are tied to your win streak:

  • One-win streak: Chance to get a Ghost Shell, Hardened By Trial emblem
  • Five-win streak: Yellow glow, Chance to get a sparrow, Chance to get a ghost shell, Trials shader from the knockout list (one per week), Light for the Lost emblem, Flawless Empyrean emblem, Sunward Ordeal emblem
  • Six-win streak: White glow
  • Seven-win streak: Red glow

Interestingly enough, you can often get better rewards from regular Trials of Osiris matches than from the Lighthouse chest. If you commit to the grind, though, reaching the Lighthouse (especially with a seven-win streak) can be quite rewarding with multiple Tier 5 drops.
