{{Quote|These are our worlds...Take them back. Inch by inch. Bullet by bullet.|[[Grimoire]] blurb.}}
'''Patrols''' are the primary open-worlds of the ''[[Destiny]]'' series. These maps are open-ended and focused on exploration. Players touch down in one of several [[Destination]]s, and are able to explore at will, along with taking on tasks assigned to them.<ref name = "TG">[http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/apr/28/destiny-hands-on-bungie-xbox-playstationshared-world-shooter '''The Guardian''': ''how the makers of Halo plan to change the future of shooters'']</ref> Minerals and other resources can be found that can be used on [[weapon]]s and [[armor]]. This is a "lower intensity" game mode compared to others, as there are no [[Darkness Zone]]s or other penalties for death.<ref name = "Alpha">[http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=115321786&postcount=1557 '''NeoGaf''' : ''Destiny Alpha Gameplay Leaks'']</ref>

Players can bring a [[fireteam]] alongside them with two other people, but can also encounter other players while on patrol. Patrols are useful for gathering miscellaneous loot such as [[material]]s, [[consumable]]s, hidden chests, or rewards for exploration missions. Missions can be acquired on patrol by locating and activating beacons, and are always available.

Patrol is available for the [[Cosmodrome]], [[Moon]], [[Venus]], and [[Mars]]. ''[[The Taken King]]'' also possesses a unique patrol location for the [[Dreadnaught]].

[[Destiny 2]] introduces larger, much more expansive patrol locations, complete with [[Lost Sector]]s, [[Adventure]]s, and new patrol missions. ''[[Destiny 2|Destiny 2's]]'' patrol locations include [[Nessus]], the [[European Dead Zone|EDZ]], the [[Dreaming City]], the [[Moon]], [[Europa]], the [[Cosmodrome]], [[Savathûn's Throne World]], [[Neomuna]], and [[The Pale Heart]]. Along with the removed patrol locations of [[Titan (moon)|Titan]], [[Io]], [[Mercury]], [[Mars]], the [[Tangled Shore]], and the [[Derelict Leviathan]].

===Mission types===
====''Destiny''====
Activating a patrol beacon will enable Guardians to complete simple missions for a small reward of experience and [[reputation]].

*'''Scan''' - go to a certain location and have [[Ghost]] scan an object.
*'''Item''' - collect drops from a certain type of enemy.
*'''Survey''' - go to a certain location and scout out a group of enemies.
*'''Kill''' - kill a set number of enemies.
*'''VIP''' - kill a specific enemy found in a private location (typically a named major or minor).
*'''Energy Spike''' - collect energy beacons to reach 100% charge before your charge slowly drains to 0%. Players can overcharge for a maximum of five levels for maximum Glimmer and other material payoff.
*'''Neutralize Taken Blight''' - go to a certain location and fend off waves of [[Taken]]; sometimes includes an Ultra at the end. 
*'''Quarantine''' - kill a specific enemy at a certain location, then go to a second location and fend off enemy waves.

If the player has completed several patrol missions, they can receive a mystery transmission where the player has to figure out how to unscramble a message (such as doing an emote, killing enemies, getting headshots, etcetera). The player is given an encrypted prompt on what they have to do and must figure it out for themselves.

===Public Events===
Though not strictly limited to Patrol mode, [[Public Event]]s always occur in public areas, usually following a predictable schedule. Only players who participate in the event while it is available will earn any rewards. Performance in Public Events is scored as Bronze, Silver, or Gold, and rewards are automatically granted to players upon completion. In [[Destiny 2]], public events contain heroic objectives to complete and are expanded upon.

===World Events===
Some events, such as [[Blade of Crota]] summons, [[Queen's Wrath (event)|Queen's Wrath]] "Wolf Packs", and [[Taken]] Lieutenant attacks, can occur in Patrol mode as well, but they are not scored and their timing is random. These events are colloquially known among players as "[[World Events]]".
