Destiny 2 Invitations of the Nine: How to beat every Xur bounty

Outside the loop of Gambit Prime and The Reckoning, the main activities in Destiny 2's Joker's Wild DLC are are the ongoing Allegiance quests and Xur's new bounties called the Invitations of the Nine. A new Invitation is available from Xur every week - per character, that is - and completing it unlocks new lore and story content related to the Drifter's past and his ties to the Nine. There are nine bounties in total, meaning the storyline will continue through June.  

We'll update this guide with new Destiny 2 Invitations of the Nine every week. Thus far, all of them require you to complete a Strike and collect samples by killing enemies. As a reminder, to be eligible for the next Invitation, you'll need to complete the current one by the Thursday reset. With that said, here are all the current Invitations. 

Complete the Savathun's Song Strike on Titan. Kill Hive and Fallen on Titan to collect samples.

Complete the Inverted Spire Strike on Nessus. Kill Vex, Cabal, and Fallen on Nessus to collect samples. 

Complete the Pyramidion Strike on Io. Kill Cabal, Taken, and Vex on Io to collect samples. 

Complete the Strange Terrain Strike on Mars. Kill Cabal and Hive on Mars to collect samples. 

Complete the Corrupted Strike in the Dreaming City. Get Hive, Scorn, and Taken kills in the Dreaming City to collect samples. 

Complete three Quickplay, Competitive, and Rumble Crucible games.
