History of MMXIX

Overview

MMXIX is the first of the annual Moments of Triumph seals, a seal marking Year 2 of Destiny 2 (the Forsaken year) in Roman numerals. Completing it grants the MMXIX title. It was available from July 14, 2019 until August 27, 2019, shortly before Shadowkeep, so it is now unobtainable. The in-game record lists 24 triumphs; some 2019 guides cite 20 required triumphs, and the in-game list is followed here. Players needed Destiny 2: Forsaken and the Annual Pass.

Gilding

No gilding exists for MMXIX; Moments of Triumph seals are not gildable and the seal can no longer be earned.

Tips and time

• Many entries are retroactive collection or pinnacle-weapon checks; the grind is the event-window triumphs (Gun for Hire 50 bounties, Challenger 10 weeklies, For the Vanguard 25 strikes) and the raids (Last Wish, Scourge of the Past, Crown of Sorrow) plus The Shattered Throne.
• The event ran from July 14 to August 27, 2019.
• Estimated time: dozens of hours for a player with no raid clears; much less for veterans.

Trivia

• The Roman numeral naming began here and continued yearly.
