The City A Wish Built
The City A Wish Built:Complete Dreaming City public events, Lost Sectors, and patrols. Blind Well completions grant additional progress.
This challenge requires you tocomplete 100 activities on the Dreaming City this season.This includes Lost Sector clears, patrols, public events, and Blind Well clears. While Blind Well grants bonus progress, a T4 clear seems to give roughly 5% and is a fairly large timesink.
Players with good builds can get this done quickly byfarming Lost Sectors and patrols simultaneously.Activate a patrol, clear a Lost Sector, and repeat as needed. We only recommend farming Blind Well if you’re interested in chasing thereissued Dreaming City weapons this season.
Dragon’s Defender I
Dragon’s Defender I:Defeat combatants with Solar weapons. Gain additional progress from Solar Rocket Launcher final blows.
Defeat 300 enemies with Solar weaponsto complete this Seasonal Challenge. Rocket Launchers grant bonus progress, but we highly recommend youuse Sunshotinstead. This weapon deals high base damage, creates chain reaction explosions with every kill, and is fairly easy to obtain. It also has great synergy withthis season’s Artifact perks, allowing Sunshot to proc Radiant to further boost its damage.
Silver Blade:Acquire the “Swords and Signs” Triumph.
“Swords and Signs” is a seasonal Triumph you’re able to find under the “Season of the Wish” section under “Secrets.“This challenge requires you to defeat 100 enemies with Swords and 50 enemies with Solar melee abilities.Any Sword will get the job done here, althoughwe highly recommend Lamentsince it heals you and deals excellent single-target damage.
For the Solar ability kills, it depends on what class you’re playing.Hunterscan use the Knock ‘Em Down Aspect and Ember of Torches for infinite melee abilities.Warlocksshould use Incinerating Snap paired with Heat Rises and Ember of Searing for fast melee regeneration.Titanscan use Throwing Hammer with Roaring Flames and Synthoceps to clear fodder enemies with ease.
EDZ Activities
EDZ Activities:In the EDZ, earn progress by completing bounties, patrols, public events, and Lost Sectors.
Rewards
Similar to the Dreaming City challenge, EDZ Activities will track every activity you complete on the EDZ. This specific Seasonal Challenge requires36 activity completions on the EDZ. The fastest way to do this is byfarming bounties and Lost Sectorssimultaneously. Grab Devrim Kay’s daily bounties, clear a nearby Lost Sector, and repeat.
Focused Intention
Focused Intention:Get final blows with weapons using Primary ammo in ritual activities. Earn bonus progress for Bow, Hand Cannon, Pulse RIfle, or Auto Rifle final blows or by defeating Guardians.
This challenge requires you todefeat 400 enemies with Primary weapons while in a ritual activity.Ritual activities include Vanguard Ops, Crucible playlists, and Gambit. Any weapon that uses Primary ammo will work here, althoughwe recommend a good Hand Cannonor Bow since those grant bonus progress.
Some good weapons include Sunshot, Trinity Ghoul, Graviton Lance, Necrochasm, and Quicksilver Storm.
