Your Guide to Earning Medallions Quickly in Destiny 2’s Guardian Games
In the vast universe of Destiny 2, players known as Guardians have the constant opportunity to enhance various elements of their gameplay, including cosmetics, armor, and weapons. Each update or event introduces new secrets for players to uncover, including hidden chests. This year, the Guardian Games event offers a limited-time chance to earn medallions through specific activities.
During this event, which coincides with the Court of Blades, Guardians can spend a few weeks participating in activities to collect medallions that can be exchanged for exclusive rewards. While the event duration might feel short due to the repetitive nature of some tasks, there are efficient strategies to earn medallions quickly and make the most of your time.
Tips for Rapid Medallion Accumulation
To start earning medallions, your first stop should be Eva Levante, located in the Tower courtyard. She provides various Contender Cards, which outline specific activities you can complete. These cards come with different difficulty levels, ranging from Bronze to Diamond, with rewards scaling accordingly. The more challenging cards typically yield better medallions.
Once you choose a card and complete the task, return to Eva to claim your hard-earned medallion. Here are some effective strategies to gather medallions efficiently:
- Complete Contender Cards, focusing on the Platinum Nightfall Bounty during the expert Rush Down activity.
- Engage in ritual activities, such as Lost Sectors.
- Ensure you’re participating while wearing the class item provided by Eva, as this is essential for activity completion.
- Join the Guardian Games Playlist.
To optimize your medallion collection, focus on quick activities associated with Platinum Cards. In particular, the Platinum Nightfall Bounty is beneficial as it counts towards both the Contender Card and the Shoot to Score quest (if you’ve received it from Zala). Repeat this process to consistently farm medallions and rewards.
Previously, players have used techniques involving generating orbs and defeating enemies rapidly to complete raid cards quickly. However, it remains to be seen if such methods will be effective during this year’s event. Remember that you can only hold one card of each tier and one of each activity at a time, but this shouldn’t deter you since there are other ways to gain medallions.
You can earn medallions by completing a maximum of five boss encounters each day. Defeating the primary target efficiently will reward you with both loot and a medallion, provided your class item is equipped at the end of the activity.
Unlocking the Rewards from Medallions
While medallions themselves don’t directly grant you loot, they open the door to exclusive rewards. Participating in event challenges will also lead to additional medallion rewards. Each challenge will specify the type of medallion you can earn, and strategic play can allow you to complete multiple missions simultaneously, maximizing your efforts.
After acquiring medallions, head over to the podium in the Tower to deposit them. Doing so will unlock an event pass, where you can earn further loot and cosmetics by completing various challenges. The rewards for depositing medallions include:
- Boosts to your class score
- Exclusive Guardian Games weapons, like the Keraunios Trace Rifle
- Unique vehicles, such as The Scrambler
- Upgrade materials
- Roman-style armor sets
By strategically participating in the ongoing Guardian Games events and carefully choosing your activities, you can efficiently collect medallions and enjoy the unique rewards awaiting you in Destiny 2. Happy gaming!
