Destiny 2:The Final Shape introduces a host of updates and improvements to the Patrol experience, starting with the Pale Heart. If you’ve ever stepped into a Grandmaster Nightfall, you may recall the modifiers on the bottom of your screen before you begin.
Essentially, Traveler’s Blessings function like these modifiers, but only on one Destination on your Director: the Pale Heart. The benefits are also far more complex than standard GM modifiers, compounding your power. You can earn and use Traveler’s Blessings during your adventure on the Pale Heart, but you’ll need to play consistently to refresh your access to these buffs.

Traveler’s Blessings are timed boons or modificationsthat aid you while you fight enemies and perform activities in the Pale Heart.
Like the buffs found in other activities, these Pale Heart-exclusive power boosts give you the tools toempower yourself while weakening your enemies.
You canaccess your Traveler’s Blessingsby going to thePale Heart on your director,then navigating to theTraveler’s Blessings nodedirectly above The Blooming area.
Traveler’s Blessings can be used for up to 27 hoursafter you acquire them, then you must re-acquire the Blessing in Patrol on the Pale Heart from the sources listed below.
