History of Arena Ops

Arena Ops is a six-player playlist in The Portal, the activity hub that replaced the Director with The Edge of Fate.

Overview

Arena Ops sits alongside Solo Ops, Fireteam Ops and Pinnacle Ops in the Portal's Vanguard Ops section. It is group content for up to six Guardians, built around waves of enemies rather than the three-player formats of Fireteam Ops. Sources describe it as a way to earn larger activity rewards without scheduling a Raid or Dungeon.

Launching

Open the Portal and choose Arena Ops from the playlists. Like most Portal activities it offers difficulty modifiers (Power deficits and challenge modifiers) that raise the score target and improve loot.

Rewards

Arena Ops and Pinnacle Ops both award Vanguard Ciphers, which are spent on focused gear. Higher difficulty raises the default reward rank and tier.

History

Introduced in The Edge of Fate. Third-party guides differ on exact activity lists, which rotate, so check the Portal in game for the current selection.
