There has been an uptick in Destiny 2 activity with the announcements, from the website as well as E3, about new content coming and changes to the game. Jump on in and play with other AIE Guild members, check out the #destiny2 channel in AIE’s Discord server.

Essentially, the start of the new season brought back Faction Rallies and that event is going on now but ends Tues. It only lasts one week and there are rewards specific factions: gear, weapons, etc.

There's also hype for the newly announced Forsaken Expansion 2 to the game.

A handful of guardians are popping on to finish weekly events to level the Clan and obtain powerful engrams for all. The Clan is still accepting new members while anyone how hasn't been on in 4-6 months may be removed to make room for new members. You can always receive an invite back to the Clan though.
