Happy reset day, Guardians! Lord Saladin has packed up and left the Tower and the fire pits have been removed from the crucible maps. Now we wait.... Forsaken launches in 14 days!!

In the meantime, you can catch up on all the information Bungie dropped on us in last week's TWAB including what to expect from the August 28th update. For a summary of the TWAB, check out this article by @Th0rNd - https://destinytracker.com/article/548/this-week-at-bungie---816

Next week will be the last weekly reset using this particular format. We know the timing of reset activities is changing but we don't have all the details just yet. It may take me a couple of reset cycles to get a handle on what resets when and to adjust the format of this article. I would like to extend a very heartfelt thank you to those of you that read the article each week and especially to those who have commented with praise and suggestions. This article has improved over the months thanks to you! I'm looking forward to being your source for reset activities in year 2!

...not so fast FJ! Go find a video to watch :P

One last thing before I get to your weekly to-do list. I had the pleasure of playing with some of the guys from the Saint-14 Project this past weekend. Be sure to go check out what they're doing to help bring mental health awareness and support to the Destiny community - @Saint14Project

Here’s your reset activities for the week of August 21st – August 28th

Flashpoint: Titan

Travel to Titan 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.

Flashpoint Reward: Powerful Engram

Cayde-6 Treasure Maps: Titan

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 Titan to complete your Flashpoint milestone. Feel free to give him a hug while you're there...just don't tell him why.

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.

The weekly Crucible playlist is Doubles!
