Bungie releases a big Destiny 2 weapons and armor update, addressing lingering bugs while also making balance changes to certain archetypes.

In the latest weekly blog post, Bungie revealed the Past is Prologue event, kicking off on January 21 following the in-game reset and lasting for 2 weeks only. Similar to Destiny 2's Riven's Wishes event during Season of the Wish. This time around, players will be visiting Drifter to pick up new quests that reward Bento Tokens. Collecting this currency, players can exchange them for some powerful rewards with Eris Morn, though players should note that only 8 can be earned, so not all rewards can be obtained.

Similar to Riven's Wishes, players will have a variety of rewards they can earn for trading in Bento Tokens. All rewards cost 1 token, and with only 8 available during the event, players will need to spend them wisely. Players who turn in 5 Bento Tokens during the event will also get access to Destiny's rare Chatterwhite Shader.

Mementos

  • Igneous Hammer legendary hand cannon (Adept)

With only a limited amount of tokens available, players certainly have a decision to make over the next two weeks as there are plenty of highly sought after items within that list. While adept weapons and high-stat artifice armor are always solid choices for those looking to create powerful endgame builds, collectors may have an interest in the big selection of mementos. Destiny 2 mementos are rare shaders that can be applied to crafted weapons, giving them a unique look, title, and tracker. These are typically aligned with limited-time events, making them fairly rare, so for those who missed any, this event gives players a chance to acquire more.
