Destiny 2: Forsakenmight only be a few months old but it’s time for some changes. TheSeason of the Outlaw(the fourth season forDestiny 2) is coming to an end later this month, as confirmed by Bungie in its weekly blog post. Specifically, any Seasonal items players want to tick off their checklist must be completed by November 27th.
For those that may not have been following closely, Bungie gave each of its four seasons forDestiny 2Year 2 a different name. These seasons will be complemented by events and DLC releases, some of which will be free and some of which will be not. Season of the Forge is up next and presumably it starts after the reset on November 27th.
Iron Banner
The end of a season means a few things forDestiny 2players, mostly that some quest steps will lose progress and some gear will be pulled from the rotation. For gear, Iron Banner Season 4 armor will no longer be available after the Season of the Outlaw ends, to be replaced with a new set once Season of the Forge begins.
Weapons, on the other hand, will continue to be available throughoutDestiny 2Year 2, including those that have previously released like the Claws of the Wolf pulse rifle. It stands to reason that the Iron Banner weapon loot pool will grow in Season 5, as Bungie adds more weapons into the mix.
Crucible Weapon Quests
Perhaps the biggest reason for players to keep track of the season ending is for Crucible quests. TheLuna’s Howl, Not Forgotten, and Redrix’s Broadsword quest all require that players reach a certain rank in Quickplay or Competitive, and those requirements are for a single season.
For example, theRedrix’s Broadsword questrequires 5 Valor resets in a SINGLE season, so if a player doesn’t hit 5 by November 27th they will need to start the resets all over again. Hopefully, Bungie has more double and triple Valor events planned to help speed up that process but it’s still something to keep in mind.
That being said, these weapon quests will not go away when the season changes; they are said to stay throughout year 2. More importantly, any quest steps not involving Crucible rank - like completing 10 competitive matches – will carry over.
Triumphs
Finally, players have a few Triumphs tied to the Season, mainly Crucible ranks and Vanguard ranks. Make sure to hit those thresholds before November 27th.
With about three weeks left,Destiny 2players now have a ticking clock. There is one more Iron Banner event set for next week and then the focus turns to everything else.
Destiny 2is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
