[GameSpot] - Destiny 2 Season Of The Lost: Seasonal Challenges Guide (Week 2)

[343iBot]

Like previous seasons, Destiny 2 players will have plenty of seasonal challenges to pursue for the next several months. Season of the Lost's objectives offer plenty of variety, with each adding a new selection of challenges that reward you with gear, resources, and experience points. You won't have to do every objective within the week that they debut either, as Destiny 2 stacks new seasonal challenges on top of older ones, giving Guardians time to pursue the tasks that they deem to be a priority.

Here's how it works and all of the seasonal challenges available so far.

Season of the Lost Weekly Challenges

Week 2 splits the challenges between continuing the Wayfinder Voyage quest, getting some Linear Fusion Rifle practice, and spending some time in the Iron Banner. For the Taken Eradication challenge, the Lake of Shadows strike in the EDZ and The Corrupted Strike in the Dreaming City are good sources to farm.

Tracing the Stars also continues this week, and if you're looking for the locations of the Atlas Skews, you can check out our guide.

How Do Seasonal Challenges Work?

You can access Seasonal Challenges from the Quests tab, where they can find tasks such as eliminating Scorn with grenade launchers, farming for Parallax Trajectory, and uncovering Ley Line secrets during this season's quest. Completing a challenge always rewards you with a significant amount of XP, and other tasks include bright dust, emblems, and weapons. Each challenge can be completed once per account, and each week will usually add around 10 new challenges which will be active for the duration of the season.

If you arrive late to the seasonal party, the good news is that there'll still be time to wrap up any lingering tasks before the next season begins, usually from week 10 onwards during a season. Completing Season of the Lost's challenges will fulfill the requirements for the Master of All seasonal challenge, which in turn will net you a large Bright Dust reward that can be spent in the Eververse store on select cosmetics, emotes, and items.
