====The Making Of Gambit Prime====
To test Gambit Prime, Drifter hires a Titan named Joxer, a regular in Gambit who was good at invading. He explains that he was setting up a new version of Gambit, how regular Gambit has been a training ground for it, and he wants Joxer to test it. Joxer brings up [[The Guardian|''The Guardian'']], claiming that Drifter favors him, and the Drifter asks why people always assume he has a liking for them. Joxer mentions they built [[Malfeasance|a gun]] together, and he counters Drifter that making Malfeasance took more than just the two of them and that many Guardians have one now, and it wasn't his fault he [[Chimera|kept missing the shot]]. Joxer gets angry, but Drifter calms him down by saying he likes the motes he gives him, with or without Malfeasance. He then complements Joxer's Invading skills and asks him to test Gambit Prime. Joxer isn't enthused by the name, but he agrees to take the job.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/2/28)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Joker's Wild]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/47652| Narrative Preview - Gambit Prime]''</ref>

The test is successful to Drifter, even though three Guardians died permanently. Joxer is incensed that he didn't stop the Taken even though he could have. Despite that, the armor Drifter supplied worked perfectly. He pays Joxer, including his dead teammates' cuts, and offers more work. Joxer refuses to work with him anymore out of disgust, but Drifter lets him keep his Invader armor. After Joxer leaves, he reviews the data his Ghost collected, impressed at the results..<ref>'''Bungie (2019/3/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Joker's Wild]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/47652| Narrative Preview - The Reckoning]''</ref>
