Destiny 2: Season Of The Wish Seasonal Challenges Guide - Week 4
We're in the second week of Destiny 2's festive Dawning event, and if you're not too busy chasing down Starcats or earning the new Wish-Keeper Exotic bow, you can relax and knock a few seasonal challenges off of your to-do list.
There's not too much to do this week, as completing the latest chapter of the seasonal storyline, opening up chests in the seasonal activities, and completing the Starcrossed mission to add Wish-Keeper to your arsenal will make up the bulk of this week's optional pursuits. After that, you can play a Grandmaster Nightfall mission, complete activities in ritual playlist activities, and mop up a few Vex to call it a day.
Seasonal Bonuses are also back in Season 23, and you can earn some great perks as you progress through missions and activities.

Week 1
For Season 23, it's mostly business as usual. Completing the first chapter of the new seasonal storyline will earn you some extra XP in Wishseeker I, and you can also spend some time in the Dreaming City and the EDZ completing public events, Lost Sectors, bounties, and patrols to scratch The City a Wish Built and EDZ Activities from your to-do list. Equip a bow, hand cannon, pulse rifle, or auto rifle that uses primary ammo in Vanguard activities--Strikes, PvP, and Gambit--and you'll quickly complete Focused Intention as well. If you're on the premium rewards track of the season pass you'll have the new Dragon's Breath rocket launcher unlocked instantly, so have fun playing with that and Dragon's Defender will be another challenge that you quickly complete.
