Destiny 2's current Season of Opulence revolves around the Chalice of Opulence, an item that gives players more control than ever over what weapons and armor they want from the new 6-player matchmade Menagerie mode. Players can guarantee which loot they get as long as they have the right combination of Runes slotted into the Chalice.
It didn't take Destiny 2 fans very long to figure out exactly which Rune combinations will result in each piece of gear. And they shared that information on the Destiny subreddit in some extremely helpful grids and spreadsheets.
To earn these rewards, players must unlock the Chalice's Rune slots by earning Imperials. Then, players can earn various Runes that can be put into each slot. And every combination will give a different piece of gear and influence what kind of stats that loot has. Once players complete the Menagerie and reach the final chest, the rewards from that chest are entirely determined by which Runes are slotted into the Chalice.
As players have discovered, the Chalice works like this: The first Rune slot determines what class of gear the final chest in the new Menagerie activity will reward, be it a sniper rifle, submachine gun, helmet, chest piece, etc. The second Rune slot specifies which reward is granted, such as the Beloved sniper rifle versus the Twilight Oath. On armor, the second Rune determines if the armor will have Recovery, Mobility, or Resilience. Lastly, the third Rune lets players choose the Masterwork stat on their weapons or the type of element resist on armor.
There are a number of helpful spreadsheets and charts that have been created by Destiny 2 fans. While they range from a simple, at-a-glance grid to a full-blown spreadsheet, there is really a version of this information for everyone. Check below for links to various charts with this information.
Destiny 2 is out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One, and will launch in November for Google Stadia.
