Players must complete a unique set of "Wanted" bounties to gain Queen's Wrath reputation and unlock exclusive rewards at higher ranks. A new "Wanted" bounty is made available each day of the event. To complete the bounties, players must travel to the corresponding area and wait for a "Pack of Wolves" world event to occur. Several [[House of Wolves]] [[Skiff]]s will appear and drop enemies, including [[Scorch Cannon]]-wielding Scorch [[Captain]]s. The last Skiff will drop the target of the bounty. Upon completing the bounty, players acquire a buff called "Ether Key" that lasts for 90 seconds which will allow them to open an Ether Chest that spawns at a random location in the area. Ether Chests contain randomized loot, including [[Glimmer]], Decoherent and Legendary [[Engram]]s, planetary materials, ammo synths, and [[Treasure Key]]s. Once the "Ether Key" buff expires, the Ether Chest will disappear.

A new "Wanted" bounty is made available each of the first six days of the event; on the seventh day, if all bounties have been completed, the player receives a "Queen's Favor" mission item to be redeemed for rewards at the [[Vestian Outpost]].

"Wanted" bounties normally reward +250 rep each toward Queen's Wrath. This amount is increased to 312 if the Radiant Light buff acquired from completing the [[Nightfall]] is active.
