In Destiny 2, you should use your raid keys today, on December 4th.
In the Leviathan raid, there are not only tokens and raid gear to earn but also keys.
These raid keys are then carried into the maze of the raid. Inside, you will find chests that can be opened with the keys. Since each chest has a chance for exotic loot with the maximum power level, you should not miss out on these rewards, especially if you are not yet at max level.
However, shortly after the launch of Destiny 2, a problem with the raid keys was discovered. Under certain circumstances, they could unintentionally disappear from the inventory. This happened when you
- created a new character
- or earned the keys with character A and then logged in with character B or C after the weekly reset. Then, all keys from character A were gone.
This problem will be fixed with “Curse of Osiris”.
Open the chests now
Actually, the raid keys were supposed to be removed during the weekly reset every week. That is the “normal functionality” of the keys. However, to prevent the unintended disappearance as described above, Bungie disabled this feature, so the raid keys will remain permanently in the inventory. Some of you will now have a few keys in your inventory.
Tomorrow, on December 5th, Curse of Osiris will be deployed along with update 1.1.0. Bungie has now announced that this update will fully resolve the raid key issues, so starting tomorrow, they will reintroduce the “normal functionality”.
This means that from now on, the keys will be removed from the inventory with each weekly reset.
The first key reset will take place tomorrow, on December 5th. You can download update 1.1.0 around 5 PM. After that, all your keys will be gone.
Bungie specifically notes in a blog post – to avoid any nasty surprises with the keys tomorrow.
