Destiny 2’s Season Is Ending, Don’t Forget To Do These Five Things First – Forbes

It is just over a week until Destiny 2’s Season of the Hunt comes to an end. This season is a bit different than past seasons as Bungie is now aiming to reduce “FOMO,” the Fear of Missing Out, by allowing a lot of seasonal stuff to carry over throughout the year. In this case, this includes things like Wrathborn Hunts, so no rush to farm those weapons, and storylines like the Crow/Hawkmoon quest, including the new secret quest, Harbinger, which is not going away.

And yet, some stuff is going away, and I wanted to make a short post detailing what exactly you should be remembering to do before the season ends on February 9.

1. Turn In Crucible Tokens

Bungie has made this very clear with both in-game and out of game announcements. Crucible tokens are going away, and you’ll need to turn them all in at Shaxx, whether you have 200 or 20,000, before the season ends, lest you lose them and all the gear/materials they could turn into. It’s not a terribly fun process, but it’s just a flat waste if you don’t do it for the shards, cores and the occasional good roll (very, very occasional). Gambit is changing to the same system as Crucible, but that mode never had tokens in the first place. The Vanguard will turn into this system eventually, but not this upcoming season, so no, you don’t have to turn in your Vanguard tokens now. Nor Weapon Parts at Banshee, as I’ve heard some people ask.

2. Claim High Stat Season Pass Armor

If you’ve paid for the season, don’t forget to claim your 60+ stat set of Wild Hunt armor that is between levels 37 and 57 on the pass, which I will assume you have reached by this point. I usually forget about it until the last minute since I’m already using armor from past seasons, but it’s always a solid set that will have the highest current sunset cap, so you don’t want to miss it. There are two other, lower stat sets you can get for either materials, or they will be at-level drops if you need to gap fill for a power upgrade.

3. Spend All The Vaulted Destination Materials You Can

I think people forgot about this, but according to Bungie, this is the last season where stuff will be for sale for vaulted destination materials. As such, you should be heading to Spider or Banshee to buy whatever you can for materials from Titan, Io, Mercury or Mars, as they’re about to become useless. As you can see, I have not done a perfect job of this above, but I’ve tried to be conscious of it this season. It’s RNG for what you can buy on any given day so you may be physically unable to do this in time, but it’s worth giving it a shot.

4. Buy Drifter’s God Roll Rocket Launcher

Sure, he may have it next season, but you never know. With the Rocket Launcher buff, a 1360 power cap Bad Omens with tracking and cluster bombs could prove useful, and it’s something you can pick up without needing to wade through layers of RNG farming.

5. Turn In All Completed Weekly Bounties

If you’re like me, you probably save some amount of bounties to get some early, easy levels when the next season starts, but this time around, with Weekly Bounties going away next season, you can’t save them. Bungie has warned players to turn them in before the season ends or you will lose any rewards from them. No point holding them this time around.

Those are the main things I can think of for now. If anything else comes to mind I’ll add it in later.
