Destiny 2 Dungeons & Raids will be easier to farm than ever in Episode Revenant
Bungie is introducing a big change to dungeons and raids that will make Destiny 2’s most desirable loot easier to farm than ever once Revenant Act 1 goes live.
Episode Revenantwill get underway on October 8 after theweekly reset, bringing an end to Echoes. The new season will deliver a range of exciting content, including theVesper’s Host dungeon, a whole heap ofnew weapons, and a large list ofconfirmed buffs & nerfsthat are likely to makeStasis Exotics meta again.
In addition to all of that, Bungie is also improving theDungeon & Raid rotationsin Revenant by adding a second featured activity each week, as confirmed in adeveloper TWID.
For the first week this change is live from October 8 – 15, these are the four dungeons and raids that you’ll be able to farm freely:
This is a fantastic quality of life change, as it allows Guardians to have more control over what activities they do and when they do them.
Beforehand, if you missed a featured raid or dungeon, it was no longer practical to farm its loot until it was featured again two months later. While you’ll still have to wait for your desired content to be featured as before, the wait has now been halved, making it far less punishing to miss a given week.
This update represents yet another move away from content that pressures players into feeling a fear of missing out, also known as FOMO, which has always been a heated topic in the community for years.

A similar approach is being implemented in Revenant with Destiny’s seasonal content, with each act’s full story set to be available from day one rather than gradually rolled out each week like in prior seasons.
While this is a positive change, it may have the unintended side effect of making it harder to find groups for less popular content. For example, if Ghosts of the Deep and Warlord’s Ruin are both featured at the same time, most players are going to prefer the latter, reducing how many LFG groups are available for GOTD, which remains divisive due to itsbosses’ huge shields.
If this ends up being a serious problem is to be seen. Either way, this change will make it easier to farm thebest PvE weaponsandbest PvP weapons, many of which are exclusive to dungeons and raids, so be sure to get involved.
