Description Track wins and losses in Trials of Osiris


Trials tickets (officially called Passages) are consumable items in Destiny 2 that track wins and losses during Trials of Osiris matches. Players must have an active Passage to participate in Trials and different Passage types offer various benefits.

Overview

Passages serve as entry tickets and scorecards for Trials of Osiris, Destiny 2's premier PvP endgame activity. Each Passage tracks wins and losses throughout a player's Trials run, with seven wins traditionally granting access to The Lighthouse and its exclusive rewards.

Current System (Episode: Heresy)

As of Episode: Heresy, Trials underwent significant changes:

Two Passage System

  • Trials of Osiris Passage
 * Designed for new PvP players
 * Awards bonus reputation
 * Uses Skill-Based Matchmaking (SBMM)
 * Cannot access the Lighthouse
 
  • Lighthouse Passage
 * Grants Lighthouse access after seven wins
 * Wins don't need to be consecutive
 * Uses Open Matchmaking initially
 * Becomes "Flawless Passage" with 7 consecutive wins
 * Flawless enables SBMM and Adept weapon drops

Traditional Passages (Legacy)

Before Episode: Heresy, five Passage types existed:

Always Available

  • Passage of Mercy
 * Forgives one loss per card
 * Most popular for Flawless attempts
 * Ideal for average players
 
  • Passage of Ferocity
 * Third win counts as two (if no losses)
 * Speeds up Flawless runs
 * High risk, high reward

Unlockable Passages

  • Passage of Confidence
 * Unlocked after going Flawless
 * Bonus rewards from Flawless chest
 * For confident players
 
  • Passage of Wealth
 * Unlocked at 5 wins (any card)
 * Increased Trials Token drops
 * Good for farming rewards
 
  • Passage of Wisdom
 * Unlocked at 7 wins (any card)
 * Bonus XP from wins
 * Helps with seasonal progression
