Benefits of a Clan (Destiny)

I'm still not entirely clear on what I'm supposed to do with a D2 clan, but I'll figure it out.

If you're in an active clan, you will earn additional engrams each week. Looking in-game, it looks like you'll get an engram for the following occasions (one reward per week)

• Win a crucible match with 2 or more clan members in the fireteam
  
• Complete the Nightfall with 2 or more clan members in the fireteam
  
• Complete the Raid with 3 or more clan members in the fireteam
  
• Get 7 wins in Trials with 2 or more clan members in the fireteam

As long as there's a single fireteam that completes those activities with the minimum number of clan members, everyone in the clan should get the rewards.

As a bonus, higher-level clans get better rewards during in-game activities:

• Level 2: Extra glimmer when looting engrams
  
• Level 3: Increased public event rewards
  
• Level 4: Improved reward from eliminating Cabal enemies
  
• Level 5: Increased chance of receiving reputation tokens from Nightfalls, Raids and Trials
  
• Level 6: Increased chance of receiving an engram when completing playlist activities with a clan member

And of course being in a clan means quick access to invite or join other clan members who are playing destiny - they appear in your roster on the right. Destiny at it's core is a social/community shooter, right?

Smaller clans will be at a disadvantage; it'll take more time to level up the clan and will probably require more effort to earn the weekly engram rewards. DBO XBL is currently at 33,750/100,000 on it's way to level 2.
