In Destiny 2, today, on November 13th, is Weekly Reset. The last Iron Banner of Season 4 is live. What activities and challenges does the new week bring? What are the new Nightfall strikes and where is the Flashpoint?
November Iron Banner begins: With the Weekly Reset on 13.11. Lord Saladin visits the Tower – for the last time in Season 4.
For one week, Guardians can test their powers and skills in the Crucible and grab Iron Banner-specific rewards. Players now have the opportunity to continue or complete their hunt for weapons and armor from the Season 4 Iron Banner.
The mystery quest continues: Additionally, the mysterious Festival Quest surrounding the murder of the former Reef Cryptarch enters its final week. It will soon become clear whether the Guardians will return to the Cosmodrome and whether the exotic machine gun Thunderlord awaits at the end of the three-week quest.
The previous quest steps can be found here:

This is what Guardians can expect this week:
- The Cursed of the Dreaming City is weakening and enters its first cycle week.
- In the Crucible, with the start of the Iron Banner, there will be double Valor points. A good opportunity for those looking to push or reset their Valor rank.
