Destiny 2 Weekly Reset 12/12 – 12/18: Masterworks Weapons, Mercury Events

The December 12 Destiny 2 weekly reset will take players to Destiny 2’s newest patrol area. This week’s Flashpoint is in the Mercury, bringing players close to the Sun for yet another luminous engram. Don’t forget to purchase Cayde’s treasure maps leading to the chests in this area too. There are only three treasure maps for purchase this week, as opposed to the usual five.

Faction Rally was supposed to take place this week, but Bungie delayed it in order to figure out how to best include all players in events whether they own the DLC expansions or not. The Nightfall this week is available to everyone, but the Flashpoint will only be available to players who own the Curse of Osiris expansion. Masterworks weapons are new this week, having come with the latest update.
