==Destiny 2 Public Event Types==
==Destiny 2 Public Event Types==
In ''[[Destiny 2]]'', Public Events appear more frequently than in [[Destiny]] and are also announced 5 minutes before becoming active. Once an event is announced, an icon will appear on the map screen for the planet, which allows players to find and track the event. If a player arrives at the location before the start of the event they will find a glowing flag and have the option of rallying to it. Rallying to the Flag instantly recharges all of their abilities, including their Super, refills all ammunition and displays how long until the event starts. Successfully completing the event will reward participating players with [[Glimmer]], a piece of equipment and a Token that can be turned into that planet's vendor to increase reputation. Failing an event still yields a Token and Glimmer but does not give equipment. Additionally, Public Events now have a Heroic version that is automatically unlocked once certain objectives are met during the event. The Heroic version increases the difficulty of the event but also increases the value of the rewards upon completion, such as a chance of receiving a Legendary or Exotic engram or multiple pieces of equipment.

*'''Cabal Excavation'''—Halt a [[Red Legion]] mining operation by overriding a [[Cabal]] [[Mining Lander]] and simultaneously defending against near constant Red Legion attacks and mortar fire. Destroying the [[Thresher]] that appears once the progress bar has reached approximately 33% will trigger the Heroic version, where [[Guardian]]s must kill the [[Excavator Valus]] leading the mining operation.

*'''Ether Resupply'''—Destroy the [[Prime Ether Servitor]] to cut off the Fallen [[Ether]] supply.

Elite Fallen will also begin to appear.

*'''Taken Blight'''—Kill [[Taken]] to sting the [[Blight]]. Destroying the giant blight with the "Blight Receding" buff that is acquired by stepping in and out of the smaller blights will trigger the Heroic version, where a [[Blightmaker]] will appear.  
*'''Taken Blight'''—During this event Guardians must repel a [[Taken]] incursion by killing Taken to sting [[Blight]]s that appear around the area. Stepping in and out of the smaller blights will give Guardians the "Blight Receding" buff which allows them to damage the massive blight. Destroying the massive blight will cause a [[Blightmaker]] to appear and trigger the Heroic version, who must be killed to complete the event. This event is only found on [[Io]] and in the [[EDZ]].
*'''Weapons Exchange/Destroy the Arsenal Walker'''—Defeat the [[Resilient Captain]] and then the [[Arsenal Walker]] protecting the caches. Unlocking the three caches using the Arc Charges dropped from the Walker will trigger the Heroic version, where a second [[Arsenal Walker]] will drop in along with elite Fallen.

*'''Witches' Ritual'''—Found only on [[Titan]]. Capture the two Hex Circles and defeat [[Wizard]]s to prevent a Hive portal from opening. Destroying the shielded crystals on either side of the portal after capturing the hex circles will trigger the Heroic version, where a [[Alak-Hul, the Darkblade|Darkblade]]-like [[Abyssal Champion]] will appear through the portal along with a massive onslaught of Thralls. Killing the Abyssal Champion completes the event.
*'''Weapons Exchange/Destroy the Arsenal Walker'''—For this event Guardians must disrupt a [[Fallen]] weapons exchange by killing the [[Resilient Captain]] and [[Arsenal Walker]] guarding the weapon caches. Shooting out the legs of the Walker will cause it to drop Arc Charges which can be used to unlock the weapon caches. Unlocking all three weapon caches will trigger the Heroic version where a second Arsenal Walker will drop in along with elite Fallen. Destroying both Walkers completes the event. This event is found in the [[EDZ]] and on [[Titan]].

*'''Witches' Ritual'''—In this event Guardians must capture two Hex Circles and defeat the Ritual [[Wizard]]s leading the event to prevent them from opening a Hive Portal. Destroying the two shielded crystals on either side of the portal (the shields can be lowered by continuing to hold the Hex Circles) will trigger the Heroic version where a [[Alak-Hul, the Darkblade|Darkblade]]-like [[Abyssal Champion]] will emerge from the portal along with an endless onslaught of [[Thralls]] and [[Cursed Thralls]]. Killing the Abyssal Champion will complete the event. This event is only found on [[The Rig]] on [[Titan]]
