Portal

The Portal is an activity interface available to players in Destiny 2 which released alongside the The Edge of Fate. Its main purpose is hosting various rewarding activities for different fireteam sizes from across the core game^[1], as well as highlighting which of those activities have daily bonus rewards. It also features the main Destination for the current Expansion, buttons to access the Seasonal Hub and the Tower, and the Event Home for any currently active Event.

Latest Expansion[edit]

The Destination for the latest Expansion is featured in the Portal. For Renegades, this Destination is the Lawless Frontier. The featured Expansion's Destination is not available through the Director. Destinations for Expansions previously featured in the Portal are accessible through the game's Timeline menu, which the Portal has a link to.

Operations[edit]

Each Portal category covers a different kind of Operation, or Op. All activities are scored in certain ways, and PVE activities offer multiple difficulties. Playing on higher difficulties (or performing better in PVP activities) contributes to higher score multipliers, which leads to higher-quality rewards.

Scoring[edit]

This section is a stub. You can help Destinypedia by expanding it.

Activities are scored in one of three ways:

Eliminations[edit]

Most Fireteam Ops are scored according to the total number of combatants defeated, with more difficult combatants awarding more points upon defeat. Certain combatants, for example Disruptors in missions like Battleground:Conduit, only award points if they are defeated before they can fulfill their purpose.

Objectives[edit]

Solo Ops, Pinnacle Ops, as well as some Fireteam Ops like Savathuns Spire, reward only the completion of the mission objectives, with defeated combatants having no influence on the final reward score. For Fireteam Ops, the objectives consist of the tasks needed to complete the activity. For Solo Ops, which are shorter and usually have only two or three mission tasks, an additional challenge objective is given upon the start of the mission. These objectives require a certain number of combatants to be defeated in a certain way. They most commonly require ability takedowns, percision kills, general weapon kills, or a certain number of enemies to be defeated total. Their completion is possible until the Boss of the Op dies.

Time Bonus[edit]

If a Solo, Fireteam, Arena, or Pinnacle Op is completed below the given time limit, the remaining time is converted into a score bonus and added to the reward score.

Contribution[edit]

Crucible Ops are scored individually for each player, and the score is calculated from the number of eliminated enemies, captured zones if applicable, assists, and friendly players revived.^{[citation needed]}

Multipliers[edit]

At the end of the activity, the accumulated score, including the time bonus^{[citation needed]}, is taken and multiplied by all applicable Multipliers.

The Challenge Multiplier is applied in Solo, Fireteam, Arena, and Pinnacle Ops, and determined by the chosen difficulty. It applies equally to all fireteam members.
The Reward Multiplier is applied in Solo, Fireteam, Arena, and Pinnacle Ops, and is determined by selected modifiers and a player's highest Power level. It applies individually to each member of the fireteam.
The Crucible Reward Multiplier is applied in Crucible Ops, and determined by the player's Crucible rank.
Temporary bonus multipliers are applied according to their description.

Solo Ops[edit]
