History of Team Scorched

Overview

Team Scorched is a The Crucible game mode, effectively 6v6 Clash where everyone uses the Scorch Cannon. Equipped weapons and abilities are disabled (you keep jumping, sprinting and emotes), the cannon cannot be dropped, and it has 100 ammo refilled on respawn.

Rules

• 7 minute timer; each kill is +1 point; first team to 60 points wins, or the higher score when time expires.
• 3 second respawn timer.
• The cannon behaves like a special grenade launcher: release mid-air to detonate, or hold the trigger as it hits a surface to stick and charge a larger explosion. Rocket jumping off your own blasts is a core movement tool, and projectiles are slow so lead your shots.

Availability

Originated in Crucible Labs (Bungie announced "Scorched is now live in Crucible Labs"), and later ran as a weekly rotating Crucible playlist mode, including in Lightfall. It is a rotator mode, not always available.

Rewards

Standard Crucible loot (catalysts, reputation, shaders), per Gameranx. The listed gear in the rewards table comes from the game's data and has not been individually verified.
