This activity takes around ten minutes to complete and grants a weapon or armor piece, sometimes both. The armor drops with sub-60 stat totals, and the weapons are much easier to obtain through Focused Umbral Engrams. Unless you need Powerful Gear or the Ager's Scepter Catalyst, there's virtually no reason to play Astral Alignment. If you want a good Vulpecula or Fractathyst, go farm and focus Umbral Engrams inst
After depositing the motes, Portal Team One will have the same Enlightened buff that was seen in previous encounters. They'll be able to break the shields of immune enemies, but only for 45 seconds. It's best to focus on breaking as many enemy shields as possible while the effect is up so the Conflux Team can continue to defend both Confluxes, and there are plenty of the Season of the Lost weapons that can help. After Portal Team One returns, break another of the same side part for Portal Team Two to go through and gather motes. They'll return, deposit their motes, and the same process will be repeated for the other side. Portal Team Two can enter the portal that is used to bring back Portal Team One, and it's recommended to do this so only one Cyclops spawns at a t
Valor Crucible has seen an overhaul in Season of the Chosen, now granting Masterwork materials and even Exotics for increasing your rank. If Valor ranks got such a massive rework, what interesting loot did Bungie give the Glory playl
All of these issues make for a gamemode that promotes snowballing and has a slower reward track than Vanguard activities or PvP. Gambit tries to make up for this with a great weapon pool, yet that's undermined by how long Gambit matches are. And even if you do get the weapon you want, each weapon has 12 potential perks in each of the final two perk columns. Good luck getting the roll you w
This week, you'll need to play multiple rounds of Astral Alignment, acquire the Finale ornament for Ascendancy, and counter Champions in endgame content. We'll be covering all seven challenges this week, their rewards, and the fastest way you can complete each of t
Mid-Range Calibration requires final blows to be made with mid-ranged weapons. These types of weapons include Hand Cannons, Auto Rifles, Fusion Rifles, and Machine Guns. Additionally, this must be done in the EDZ, and bonus progress is awarded for rapidly defeating combatants. Season of the Lost empowered Destiny 2's hand cannons for PvE content, making this an even easier challenge to compl
Destroying the Sanctified Mind's shoulder in Destiny 2 will spawn a red portal, and the leg will spawn a blue portal. It's best to destroy these parts one at a time because Cyclops will spawn every time a portal spawns. Too many Cyclops can become easily overwhelming in this encounter because they each have clear vantage points over the entire Fireteam. After spawning a portal, Portal Team One needs to go in and enemies to gather as many Voltaic Motes as possible (anywhere from 15-18). Each player can only hold 10 at a time, and it takes 30 motes to fill a single Conflux. After they gather all the motes, shoot the appropriate body part again to bring them back. They need to deposit their motes in the matching portal color's conflux (red to red or blue to bl
Advanced Ley Liner requires that you complete Astral Alignment objectives and install Paracasual Batteries during the battery escort section. The API states that you need to do this 100 times, but this isn't the case. A single Astral Alignment run grants 20% progress, so this will take five runs at most to compl
Revenant: Use Grim Harvest with Whisper of Hunger and Gambler's Dodge. This will give you solid melee uptime. Each Withering Blade can kill four enemies, so you should be able to get this done rather quickly.

This Seasonal Challenge requires Guardians to complete three playlist weekly challenges. In short, it's playing the Gambit, Crucible, and Vanguard Strikes playlists three times each. Additionally, completing these activities rewards Pinnacle Gear, and with the light level increase, the new season makes it the perfect timing to start earning more of these rewa
Season of the Hunt introduced Wrathborn Hunts to Destiny 2 Strategy 2. Unlike previous arena activities, Wrathborn Hunts focus on tracking down a single enemy and killing them in an instanced mission. Completing a mission grants a certain item based on what Lure Mods are slotted into your Cryptolith L
If you want to get this challenge done quickly, use a Duskfield Grenade. Throw a Duskfield at an Overload Champion, then stun them. They'll repeatedly get stunned, resetting their Overload status. Keep stunning the Overload Champion until the grenade goes away. You can equip Resonance Siphon in your class item to get your Duskfield back when you stun something twice, allowing you to repeat this process until the Champion dies or the challenge is finis
This week's challenge requires that you finish the sixth part of Wayfinder's Voyage and defeat 200 Scorn. Unlike last week's challenge , the enemy faction is correctly labeled this time. You can find large sums of Scorn at the Kingship Dock Lost Sector in the Tangled Shore. One or two Astral Alignment runs are more than enough to finish the Scorn kills as w
