Highlights

  • Stock up on upgrade materials from Rahool's Secret Stash for the upcoming expansion.
  • Complete ADA-1 bounties to gather Synthweaves needed for new armor sets.
  • Convert legendary shards into essential currencies before they are removed in The Final Shape.

Destiny 2 is approaching the culmination of a decade-long story arc with The Final Shape set to launch in less than a month. As players wrap up seasonal content, it's crucial to gear up for the final expansion on June 4. The upcoming Destiny 2 expansion will introduce significant changes, including the removal of certain weapons and quests from the game.

For those who haven't been active in Destiny 2 recently, there are several tasks to tackle in preparation for the new content. Staying ahead of the game not only ensures readiness against The Witness and its cohorts but also readies players for potential content loss with The Final Shape's arrival.

10 Acquire Rahool's Secret Stash

Obtain Free Upgrade Materials and Cosmetics Each Season

Maximize your stock of upgrade materials for The Final Shape by collecting free materials from Rahool's Secret Stash. Conveniently located behind Master Rahool, this stash provides rare currencies crucial for advancement in the game.

It's vital to claim these materials now as they'll need to be reacquired once The Final Shape launches. The stash can hold only one set of materials at a time, so failure to claim them before the expansion's release will result in their loss.

9 Fulfill Synth Bounties

ADA-1 Bounties Grant Synthweave for New Armor Sets

Prepare for the array of new content in The Final Shape, including fresh armor sets, by completing ADA-1 bounties to earn Synthweaves. These bounties, reset by Bungie in the tower, offer the opportunity to complete up to 10 Armor Synthesis Bounties before the expansion's launch.

Effortlessly completed within a few hours, these bounties allow players to convert Synthcords into Synthweaves by depositing them at the loom near ADA-1 in the tower.

8 Utilize Legendary Shards

Convert Legendary Shard Currency Before The Final Shape Arrives

Prepare for the removal of legendary shards in The Final Shape by converting them into essential currencies. Once a vital currency in Destiny 2, legendary shards can now be converted into Glimmer, a crucial currency in the upcoming DLC.

Another option is to exchange legendary shards for Phantasmal Fragments on the Moon, which can then be sold to Cryptarch for Glimmer, ensuring their value is not lost.
