*'''Wolf Packs''' - ''[[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]]'' reintroduced the [[Queen's Wrath (event)|Queen's Wrath]], retooled as a Bounty hunter activity in which players could collect Bounties on [[Fallen]] targets that would arrive by [[Skiff]] to public areas on [[Earth]], the [[Moon]], and [[Venus]]. These Fallen always came in waves; the first wave would drop a small group of Fallen and two [[Scorch Captain]]s. Killing the first wave would initiate five more waves; on the last wave, the Bounty target, typically a Wolf noble, would appear. Killing the target would not only complete the Bounty, but also cause an Ether Chest to appear somewhere in the area. The player had one minute to find the chest and unlock it for ammo synthesis, planetary materials, and a chance at a [[Treasure Key]].<ref>'''Bungie (2015/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[House of Wolves]] PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard''</ref> | *'''Wolf Packs''' - ''[[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]]'' reintroduced the [[Queen's Wrath (event)|Queen's Wrath]], retooled as a Bounty hunter activity in which players could collect Bounties on [[Fallen]] targets that would arrive by [[Skiff]] to public areas on [[Earth]], the [[Moon]], and [[Venus]].
