A public event where players fend off a Fallen attack.

A Public Event is a type of multiplayer match in Destiny in which several players, grouped in fireteams, work together to achieve a common goal.[1] Events may occur while on patrol or within strike missions.[2]

Public Events are rated after completion based on the Guardians' performance; if time runs out before the objective is met, it is a Bronze-Tier rating. If time runs out but the guardians manage to almost complete the objective, it is a Silver-Tier rating. If the objective is completed before the timer runs out, is a Gold-Tier rating. Guardians are rewarded with Glimmer, experience, and sometimes a rare material for Gold-Tier ratings, which are rewarded instantly. Guardians can also pick up an additional reward at the postmaster if its their first gold-tier rating of the day.[3]

Public Event Types

  • Defeat Extraction Crews - Defeat three waves of Fallen before time runs out to deactivate the Glimmer Drill.
  • Event: Defend the Warsat - Have Ghost scan the warsat; the more Guardians that stand near it, the faster Ghost can download its data. Defend yourself from waves of enemy reinforcements.
  • Defeat the Devil Walker - Destroy a Devil Walker before time runs out.
  • Kill an Enemy - A powerful enemy with high health and rapid shield regeneration will appear. Defeat them before they reach a checkpoint; this will require heavy firepower from several players.[3]
