What’s so great about Patrols? They’re how you can (eventually) unlock Flashpoints! All you have do is complete Cayde-6’s “Patrols” mission, finish a bunch of actual Patrols, then complete Public Events. You can’t miss them, but they won’t be available until after you’ve completed the Io zone.
After reuniting the original fireteam at The Farm, these three Guardians will share three new activities with the player - challenges, patrols, and strikes. Cayde-6 doesn’t mess around when it comes to Destiny 2 missions.
