Trespasser Exotic sidearm
Bungie has dipped into the classic Exotics vault of the original Destiny and retrieved Trespasser for Season of the Haunted. The original sidearm fired bursts of Arc energy, and reloading after a kill caused the next burst to be a longer, more powerful superburst. We’re still digging into how Trespasser has been revamped to fit into the worlds of Destiny 2, and how you can grab its catalyst.
Nightmare Containment
Season of the Haunted’s seasonal activity will see you venture into the hull of the Leviathan, which has been corrupted by Darkness plants. Summon the most challenging Nightmares and cleanse them with fire in this mode.
Nightmare Containment is dense and can be a bit confusing–here’s a complete explanation of how Nightmare Containment works and how to get its best rewards.
Weekly Mission: Sever
Former Cabal emperor Calus seems to have struck a deal with the Darkness, and it’ll be up to the Guardians to uncover the truth of this sinister arrangement as they dive deep into a corrupted version of the Leviathan flagship.
Where to find Calus in Sever missions
Sever missions include hidden, destroyed Calus robots like those that originally appeared in the Leviathan raid. You’ll need to find them all to complete the Season of the Haunted seal, so check out our Sever Calus robot guide.
How to Get Austringer, Beloved, and other Season of Opulence weapons
The Season of the Haunted brings some fan-favorite Leviathan weapons back from the Season of Opulence. Finding Austringer, Beloved, Calus Minitool, and Drang (Baroque) isn’t especially clear, though. Here’s how to get a new set of Opulent Weapons on the Derelict Leviathan.
Where to find hidden Calus bobbleheads
Likenesses of Calus are hidden throughout the Derelict Leviathan, and you need them if you want to complete the Season of the Haunted seal. Here’s where you can find all the Calus bobbleheads each week.
Best early Crown of Sorrow vendor upgrades
The Crown of Sorrow serves as your seasonal vendor for the Season of the Haunted, and as in past seasons, you can upgrade it as you play through seasonal events. Choosing the right upgrades early will help you speed up your progression later and increase your rewards, so grab these early Crown of Sorrow upgrades first.
Seasonal challenges
Season of the Haunted will offer several optional challenges to complete every week, which in turn will offer various rewards and substantial experience points. You’ll be able to pursue these objectives at your own leisure, and there are normally ten weeks of unique objectives to accomplish throughout a given season. Complete all of them, and you’ll be rewarded with a pile of Bright Dust that can be used to purchase some neat cosmetic gear from the Eververse shop. For a look at all of the ones released so far, check out the Season of the Haunted seasonal challenges guide.
Season pass unlocks
Seasonal armor can be earned from both the free and premium tiers of the season pass, but the seasonal gear and weapons with the best stats will be found in the paid-for season pass. You can expect higher ratings, quicker unlocks for Exotic weapons, an ornament to change up its appearance, and more resources with that version of the season pass. If you’re interested in what Destiny 2 has to offer in the Season of the Haunted, you can read the list below that highlights the best gear to earn and see what the new armor sets will look like.
