"The burden of the Iron Lords have been lifted, and the Guardians can once again march under a familiar Light. An Iron Banner." - Lord Saladin
Happy reset day, Guardians! This week, we welcome Lord Saladin back to the Tower for the second Iron Banner of Season 2. The game mode will be 4v4 Clash. The new 6v6 Iron Banner won't be here until the end of the month.

Here’s your reset activities for the week of March 6th – March 13th.
Flashpoint: Nessus
Travel to Nessus to complete Public Events to complete your Flashpoint milestone. Remember to turn your Public Events into Heroic Public Events for a chance at better loot. Once the Flashpoint milestone is complete look for the world boss at the end of the next Heroic Public Event following milestone completion. If you don’t know how to activate Heroic Public Events, read this article by AvgJoe227 Heroic Public Events and How to Start Them
Flashpoint Reward: Powerful Engram
Cayde-6 Treasure Maps: Nessus
Be sure to visit the Cayde-6 and purchase the 5 treasure maps (4600 glimmer each) leading to Cayde’s special loot chests before taking off to Nessus to complete your Flashpoint milestone.
Call to Arms: Crucible
Win glory by participating in Crucible matches. It typically takes between 5-7 matches to complete the milestone depending on if you are solo queuing or playing with clan mates. Playing crucible matches will earn you progress towards your Call to Arms milestone and your Clan XP milestone at the same time.
Call to Arms Reward: Powerful Engram
NightFall: The Pyramidion (IO)
Seek vengeance against the Vex Mind that corrupted Asher's arm. That cranky Awoken feels it's our duty to exact vengeance.
Nightfall Challenges:
- Unbroken – Complete the Nightfall with fewer than 3 deaths
- Siege Engine – Do not allow Brakion to remain shielded for more than 40 seconds before defeating it
Nightfall Reward: Powerful Engram
Raid: Leviathan
Board the Leviathan orbiting Nessus to defeat Calus, the Cabal Emperor. The first encounter this week is The Pleasure Gardens and the Challenge Mode is the Throne Room.
Raid Challenges:
- The Proving – Complete every trial Calus has set before you
- The Labyrinth – Loot 3 of Calus’s gifts in the underbelly of the Leviathan
- The Throne Room - All 4 plates must be activated at the same time before dealing damage to Calus
The Leviathan loot table has been removed since the loot tables have been unified and the loot is no longer tied to specific encounters. Everything available on the table has a chance to drop after each encounter.
Raid Lair: Eater of Worlds
Board the Leviathan orbiting Nessus to tackle the new Raid Lair - a shorter raid encounter.
Raid Lair Challenges
- Clean Sweep - Clear each major encounter
- Moments of Power - Generate orbs multiple times
- The Big Numbers - Get precision kills
Eververse
Just because you're busy fighting doesn't mean you can't look good doing it. Here's your Eververse stock for this week.
Remember all progress on the Leviathan raid is reset as well as raid keys. Clan XP goals are also reset as each player can earn a cap of 5000 XP per character for a powerful engram while total clan XP is capped at 100,000.
Here's the current Destiny 2 Development Roadmap. I'll keep it right here every week for review and update it as we get updates from Bungie.
Allons-y, Guardians!
