In Destiny 2, the event frenzy is coming to an end and the Guardians are returning to the seasonal story. Rasputin is now housed in the Exo shell and can finally speak for himself. What secrets he can reveal may be discovered by the Guardians this week. MeinMMO tells you what other activities you can plan.
This week: After Lord Saladin has left the Tower again, everything is focused on Rasputin and his return. Now that the power-hungry plan of Clovis Bray has been revealed, the Guardians can finally speak directly to Rasputin. What secrets he holds may be revealed as early as this week.
In addition to the story, the Guardians can also push their power level further and earn a gem from old days in the Nightfall with the perk “Explosive Light”.
Moreover, at the end of the week, the Trials with the 14th Saint will return, where you can sweat against Guardians for powerful rewards.
As always, MeinMMO provides you with a compact overview.
What secrets are the Guardians likely to encounter in Season 19?
The essential information about activities from January 10 to January 17
