Another reset in Destiny 2 brings in a new batch of seasonal challenges. The Ash & Iron update is far from over, as players will still get weekly events, a major annual event, paired with the awaited Exotic mission. To keep things going, the challenges will help players gather enough EXP to progress their season pass, and Bright Dust as well.
