The sixth week of Destiny 2's Season of the Seraph is here, complete with a new set of Seasonal Challenges for players to complete. Each week, Bungie releases a set of time-limited Triumphs that grant a massive chunk of XP and Bright Dust when completed. You have until the season ends to complete these challenges, so there's no rush to complete all of this week's challenges right away.
This week, players will need to stun Champions, unlock ornaments for the Veles-X Pulse Rifle, and defeat powerful combatants across the system. Most of this week's challenges are quite tedious, but we have some clever workarounds that should make things a little easier. Here is the fastest way of completing every week seven Seasonal Challenge in Destiny 2: Season of the Seraph.
More Than A Weapon VI
More Than a Weapon VI: Complete Week 6 of "More Than a Weapon." Defeat powerful Hive and Fallen combatants anywhere in the system. Bonus progress for defeating them in Heist: Battlegrounds and the Exotic mission "Operation: Seraph's Shield."
Rewards
- Exo Frame Module
- 50,000 XP
The first part of this challenge is self-explanatory. Visit the Exo Frame at the H.E.L.M. and complete the weekly quest steps. For the second objective, you'll need to defeat 100 powerful Fallen or HIve combatants, powerful referring to anything that's an orange bar (major) or tougher. You'll find plenty of powerful enemies in the Heist Battlegrounds playlist and the Seraph's Shield mission.
Heist Battlegrounds V
Heist Battlegrounds V: In the Heist Battlegrounds playlist or Legend Heist Battlegrounds, open Seraph Chests and defeat Deathtongue Choristers before they can channel Xivu Arath's battlesong.
Rewards
- Exo Frame Module
- 50,000 XP
The first half of this challenge is retroactive
This challenge requires you to open 30 Seraph Chests and defeat five Deathtongue Choristers before they reach a Hive Annihilator Totem. The former requires an immense amount of time but is thankfully retroactive. For the Deathtongue Choristers, you'll want to bring a good DPS loadout and keep your eyes peeled for them. One spawns in every Heist Battleground at a pre-determined point, typically spawning a short distance from an Annihilator Totem. Bring Linear Fusion Rifles, Swords, or Rocket Launchers to kill them quickly.
Seraph's Secrets
Seraph's Secrets: Open hidden chests in the Exotic mission "Operation: Seraph's Shield."
Reward
- 25,000 XP
You'll need to open two hidden chests to finish this challenge. We cover all hidden chest locations in our Seraph's Shield walkthrough. You don't need to open two chests in a single run, so feel free to complete this challenge over multiple clears while working on Revision Zero Catalysts.
CQC Loadout
CQC Loadout: Defeat targets with Glaives. Bonus progress for defeating Guardians. Defeat combatants in Heist Battlegrounds with melee final blows.
Reward
- 25,000 XP
CQC Loadout requires you to defeat 125 enemies with Glaives, then defeat 50 enemies in the Heist Battlegrounds playlist with melee attacks. Defeating 125 enemies with Glaives isn't a huge ask since their melee attack has infinite ammo. Equip a melee Exotic like Synthoceps or Winter's Guile to increase your Glaive's melee damage.
As for the melee attacks objective, a melee-centric build will work best here. Hunters can use Arcstrider's Combination Blow for easy kills. Warlocks can use Incinerating Snap on Dawnblade to kill targets with Ignites—Scorch and Ignite final blows that originated from your melee will count as melee kills. Titans can use Throwing Hammer on Sunbreaker for easy kills.
Apex Armorer
Apex Armorer: Masterwork a piece of armor.
Rewards
- 25,000 XP
- 75 Bright Dust
Sadly, this Seasonal Challenge is not retroactive, so you'll need to Masterwork a new piece of armor. The good news is that Masterworking Legendary armor only costs one Ascendant Shard and some Enhancement Prisms. Level your Season Pass to get access to these materials, or you can farm Nightfalls for a chance of earning an Ascendant Shard with each clear.
If you haven't Masterworked anything before, Masterwork a class item. Class items don't roll with stats, so you don't have to worry about Masterworking a suboptimal piece of gear. If you'd prefer to Masterwork something with stats, be sure you farm for high-stat armor first.
Absolutely Stunning
Absolutely Stunning: Stun Champions.
Rewards
- 100,000 XP
- 300 Bright Dust
Stun 50 Champions in any PvE activity to finish this challenge. Keep in mind that this challenge is asking for stuns, not kills. You can easily cheese this challenge by equipping a Stasis class, Duskfield Grenades, and an Overload weapon.
Head to any activity with Overload Champions, stun the Champion, then throw a Duskfield Grenade at them. The Champion will get frozen, clearing their stunned status. This allows you to effectively stunlock the Champion until it dies. Repeat a few times to get this challenge done quickly.
Crucible Ornament
Crucible Ornament: Acquire the Crucible ornament for Veles-X.
Rewards
- 100,000 XP
- 300 Bright Dust
This challenge is retroactive.
Volos-X is the Crucible ornament for Veles-X, obtained by resetting your Crucible Valor rank and reaching rank 16 once again. There's no fast way to do this beyond playing a ton of Crucible matches; prepare for a lengthy grind. Check out our Veles-X guide on how to get this season's ritual weapon, what it does, and how to get its other two ornaments.
