-The '''Queen's Wrath''' is a [[Guardian]] [[faction]] lead by the [[Queen of the Reef]]. Like other factions, purchasing items through its faction vendor, [[Petra Venj]], requires [[reputation]]. The Queen's Wrath comes with its own set of bounties that automatically rewards reputation to the Queen's Wrath faction, so wearing a [[class item]] belonging to the faction is not necessary. Unlike other factions, the Queen's Wrath is only available a few days at a time.
+'''Queen's Wrath''' is a [[Guardian]] faction and [[Story]] event presided over by [[Petra Venj]].
-One of the unique advantages of the Queen's Wrath is that turning in bounties will occasionally acquire a [[Kill Order]] mission. These are level 24 story missions with Epic modifiers, and will always reward Legendary gear aligned with the Queen's Wrath faction. <ref name = "Destiny">'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard.''</ref>

+{{Quote|Accept her orders. Settle old scores.|Original description}}
+The original Queen's Wrath occurred between September 23, 2014 and October 6, 2014.
+Players had to complete a unique set of PvE and PvP bounties to gain Queen's Wrath [[reputation]] and unlock exclusive rewards at higher ranks. These bounties involved such goals as killing 200 Fallen with headshots, and winning 3 [[Crucible]] matches with a Queen's Wrath [[Emblem]], [[Shader]], and Class Item equipped. Turning in bounties occasionally dropped a [[Kill Order]] mission, a level 24 Fallen-related Story mission with the Epic modifier that always rewarded Queen's Wrath-themed Legendary gear.<ref name = "Destiny">'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny, Activision Blizzard.''</ref>
+Upon the event's conclusion, Bungie withdrew it from rotation for improvements in response to player feedback. This version of the event is no longer available.
+===Current version===

+The current Queen's Wrath was intended to begin on May 12, 2015, but was inaccessible due to a delay in the release of patch 1.2.0; the event will end on May 18, 2015.
+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.
