Destiny 2: Season of the Seraph brings new Seasonal Challenges for you to complete. These are excellent sources of XP to prepare you for end-game content i.e., Grandmasters, a new dungeon, etc. In addition to XP, these Seasonal Challenges also reward Bright Dust, Seasonal Currency, god-rolled items, and more. In this Destiny 2 guide, we’ve detailed all the Seasonal Challenges for Week 1 of Season of the Seraph.
Seasonal Challenges for Week 1 are fairly simple. You’re needed to play the new Seasonal Activity i.e., Heist Battlegrounds, do some Playlist Activities, and calibrate weapons on the Moon. Below, we’ve detailed all the Week 1 Seasonal Challenges, their requirements, and some tips:
Seasonal Challenge | Requirement | Tips to Complete |
More than a Weapon I | You need to complete the weekly mission titled More than a Weapon. | This one is self-explanatory. Follow the instructions and complete the Week 1 of the questline to complete it. |
Heist Battlegrounds I | You need to open 5x Seraph Chests and defeat 50x Powerful Hive combatants in the Heist Battlegrounds playlist or Legend Heist Battlegrounds. | You need to do 5x runs of the Heist Battlegrounds. That’s pretty much all! |
Frozen Lightning | Defeat combatants in Heist Battlegrounds with Stasis or Arc. | HOIL Titans with Storm Grenades, Hunters with Lair’s Handshake, and Warlocks rocking Ager’s Scepter can do it fairly quickly. |
Moon Activities | You need to complete Bounties, Lost Sectors, Public Events, and Patrols on the Moon. | Pick up a few Bounties from Eris, enter your favorite Lost Sector on the Moon, and slay. This one isn’t hard! |
Long-range Calibration | Defeat combatants on the Moon with Pulse Rifles, Trace Rifles, or Bows. You also get bonus progress in Lost Sectors. | Try to do this alongside Moon Activities and Precision Loadout to complete multiple challenges simultaneously. |
Dredgin’ Up Victory | Complete multiple Gambit matches. You’ll get bonus progress for wins. | If you’re a solo player, Freelance Gambit is truly a lifesaver. Put some music on, kill things, and remember you don’t always need to deposit 15 motes. |
Spark Defender | Score points in Rift while earning bonus points for igniting the Rift. | Just play a lot of PvP. There isn’t much to say here. The time needed to do this depends on your skill-level more than anything else. |
Hive Slayer | You need to defeat Hive combatants in Vanguard Playlists or strikes. Defeat tougher combatants to get additional progress. | I believe the Heist Battlegrounds playlist also works for this. If it doesn’t, you can repeatedly farm The Disgraced to get it done quickly. |
Precision Loadout | Defeat targets with Bows or LFRs — Guardians grant bonus progress. Also, defeat combatants in Heist Battlegrounds with precision final blows. | Wishender paired with your favorite LFR is good for this. |
Taking All Challenges | Complete 3x weekly Playlist Challenges. | You can do 3x Strikes, Crucible, and Gambit to complete this one in like 30 minutes and earn a few +1 Pinnacles during the process. |
