I just came back to the game after a long break and I’m almost done with the campaign—just finished Iconoclasm and reached Chapter 2 of the Heresy content. With major changes like Armor 3.0 and a new weapon tier system on the horizon, I’m curious about what’s still worth grinding for in these last few weeks. I’ve heard that the ‘Choir of One’ from Chapter 3 of the seasonal content is a must-have, but is there anything else I should prioritize before the new expansion drops?

Do you happen to have any strong sidearms that fire rockets? Those are quite powerful! Also, an area denial grenade launcher can be super handy. Grab a good vault rocket launcher for DPS and maybe an eager edge sword if you have one. By the way, how were you doing in the game before your break?
If you’ve played Episode 1, definitely snag the weapon patterns from that before they’re gone. There are some cool items like the Rocket Sidearm and Grenade Launcher you won’t want to miss. While you’re at it, run some recent dungeons and get the good rolls from the Gunsmith for some solid gear.
As long as you have some new legendary gear and you’ve unlocked a good chunk of exotics and catalysts, you should be in a decent spot going into the expansion.
If you have Episode 1 and some Echoes engrams, use them to focus on high-stat armor, especially with a Mobility spike. It’s gonna change into a weapon damage bonus after the expansion, so it’s worth having for an edge at the start.
Definitely focus on collecting all the exotics while you can. Also, keep an eye on your current armor—especially those with stat spikes that might not be available after the update, like Mobility and Intellect. And don’t sleep on meta weapons like Hezen!
