The Vault of Glass is unlike anything else in Destiny. The designers of the game's first Raid were given license to create challenges that would depend on close communication and coordination between a larger-than-usual fireteam of six players, and it shows - the obstacles presented by the Vault of Glass will test the patience and skill of even the most experienced Guardians. But the rewards for completion are high, including unique weapons, armour, shaders, ships and random exotics. The greatest reward, though, is being able to say you beat the Raid.The Vault of Glass is intimidating, then, but if you've managed to drag your character level into the high 20s - ideally 28 or 29 - then you are more than capable of beating it. Your biggest impediment to doing so is simply putting a fireteam of six people together, because there is no matchmaking for the Raid. Instead you need friends, and friends of friends on PlayStation Network or Xbox Live in order to begin.
- You can only do the Raid once per week per difficulty level. That might sound like plenty to begin with, but it goes both ways: it also means that if you don't complete it within a week, you need to start over. The weekly refresh is on Tuesdays at 9am GMT.
