History of Faction Drop Challenge Modifiers

Overview

Faction Drop Challenge Modifiers is a Triumph that requires you to complete an activity while a Faction Drop challenge modifier is active. It is one of the Guardian Rank modifier objectives in Destiny 2, and it is usually done alongside the Faction Unit Challenge Modifiers triumph.

How to complete

1. Go to the Portal and choose an activity.
2. Set the difficulty to Expert or higher. Challenge modifiers cannot be added on lower difficulties, and enemies on Expert are at least 200 power.
3. Open the Challenge Modifiers section (the skull icon) in the activity customization menu. Faction Drop modifiers appear after the Bane section, alongside threats, Chill Touch and Counterfeit. Hover over a modifier to see its type.
4. Place the modifier in the second mod socket.
5. Complete the activity with the modifier active. The triumph tracks progress toward this objective.

Tips:

• A Faction Drop modifier follows the activity’s main faction. The Fallen version, Arach-No!, makes enemies drop Spider Mines on death. Taken enemies leave Blight geysers instead.
• You cannot select these modifiers if the activity has locked effects, so check the activity’s rules first.
• Because the modifier depends on the faction, choose an activity that matches the enemies you want to target.

Rewards

The objective counts toward Guardian Rank progress.
