How to unlock Destiny 2 Fabled and Mythic World Tiers

The Brave and Legendary World Tiers are available by default. To unlock Fabled and Mythic World Tiers, you will need to complete the campaign once on either Normal or Legendary difficulty. Completing the campaign on Legendary difficulty will have you end at or above Power level 100, making the shift to Fabled and above a touch less jarring.

How to change Destiny 2 World Tiers

Changing the World Tier to give you more--or less--of a challenge is easy to do. Open the map and navigate to the World Tier option, and select the new option. If you're landing on Kepler from another destination, you can select the World Tier via the large skull icon on the map.

You'll want to increase the World Tier while you're playing Destiny 2 to get better gear. Alongside this, the Fabled and Mythic difficulties unlock new quests and rewards, including new armor set bonuses, shaders, emblems, and more. World Tiers are also tied to Triumphs, as some can only be progressed on specific difficulty levels. The reward multiplier increase means you will get more gear from activities, making farming specific weapons easier.

While you're traversing Kepler, you may come across some chests that require an in-depth knowledge of an unfamiliar language, which require the location's abilities to unlock them. After completing the campaign, you can also jump into the quest to get the Destiny 2 Graviton Spike, one of the game's newest Exotic weapons.
