'''Expedition''' is a three player matchmade activity that was released alongside ''[[Season of Plunder]]''. It follows [[The Guardian]], [[Mithrax, Kell of Light]], [[Saint-14]], [[Spider]], and [[Drifter]] as they mine and extract loot from various locations around the solar system.

==Gameplay==
The players will load onto the planet with some enemies protecting the area of the drill sight. After the area has been cleared, the players can begin drilling, spawning in a drill and some cover. The players will defend the drill against increasing amounts of enemies as [[Engram]]s periodically burst from the drill. In order to secure these engrams, players will have to pick up and throw them towards the payload. This will go on until the payload is filled up with treasure at which point players will escort the payload to the next location with enemies attempting to stop them. If the payload is not filled by 3 minutes and thirty seconds, a [[Champion]] called a "Ruffian" will spawn. Damaging and killing this ruffian will drop some more engrams for the players to pick up. In either of these two locations, drilling may be interrupted with jammers. Players will have to venture away from the drill and destroy this jammer before returning to the drill.  
The players will load onto the planet with some enemies protecting the area of the drill site. After the area has been cleared, the players can begin the excavation, spawning in a [[Glimmer Drill|drill]] and some cover. A [[Crewmate]] flag is also present nearby. The players will defend the drill against increasing amounts of enemies as [[Engram]]s periodically burst from the ground. In order to secure these engrams, players will have to pick up and throw them towards the [[Treasure Haul]]. Engrams will remain for thirty seconds, after which they will harmlessly explode. This will go on until the payload is filled up with treasure at which point players will escort the payload to the next location with enemies attempting to stop them.  


After both locations have been mined and the payload escorted to its final destination, the players will have to defend the drill one last time against waves of enemies until the boss appears. Killing this boss will end the activity and the loot will be revealed.
If the payload is not filled by 3 minutes and thirty seconds, a [[Unstoppable Incendior]] [[Ruffian]] has a chance to arrive via [[Drop Pod]]. Damaging and killing this ruffian will drop some more engrams for the players to pick up. Sometimes, a second Ruffian can arrive after the first is killed.


The the only variations of the different Expedition locations so far are enemy types, boss type, and location
In either of these two locations, drilling may be interrupted with [[Jammer]]s. Players will have to venture away from the drill, defeat the enemies guarding the device, and destroy it before returning to the drill.


===Europa===
Sometimes, a particularly large deposit of [[Loot]] may be hit by the drilling, and even more engrams than normal may start spewing from the ground.
'''Enemy Types Present:'''
*[[Vex]]
*[[Fallen]]
*[[Cabal]]


'''Boss:'''
While en route to the next drilling site, a [[Skiff]] may arrive to halt the payload, dropping off several enemies, including an [[Overload Captain]] [[Saboteur]]. Defeating all these enemies is necessary to continue the route.
*[[Gun'nar, Privateer]], a large Cabal [[Colossus]]


===Cosmodrome===
After both locations have been mined and the payload escorted to its final destination, the players will have to defend the drill one last time against waves of enemies until the boss appears. Killing this boss will end the activity and the loot will be revealed.
'''Enemy Types Present:'''
*[[Hive]]
*Fallen
*Cabal


'''Boss:'''
==Variations==
*[[Cutlaaks, Privateer]], a large Fallen [[Captain]]

The chest at the end of the activity will drop world engrams. If players have a treasure map inserted in their Captain's Atlas, they may dig one of the three marked mounds behind the chest which will drop seasonal gear.
