It’s Destiny 2 weekly reset time again! April 9 promises to ring the changes, too, as not only is Bungie shaking things up in terms of refreshed activities, there’s also some mysterious content being added to the game as part of the weekly reset today. So, if you’re eager to find out what’s changed in Destiny 2 after the weekly reset then all you need to do is head on down below.
Destiny 2 Weekly Reset (April 9) | When is the reset time today?
Following on from last week’s Daylight Savings shenanigans, things should have settled down a little bit more with this week’s weekly reset. If you’re in the US of A, you’ll be pleased to know things have stayed the same: 11 AM Pacific and 1 PM Eastern are the times you need to watch out for.
As for those in the UK, things have shifted (at least until November, anyway), so you’ll witness the Destiny 2 weekly reset at 6 PM BST.
What’s changed in the Destiny 2 weekly reset? (April 9)
You’ve got your usual suspects today, including new Crucible Challenges, Flashpoints, Gambit (and other Bounties), weekly Clan rewards being dished out, and even a Nightfall Strike to bounce off, which is all pretty exciting in and of itself.
But, of course, Bungie is introducing some changes to Destiny 2 via an update. While we don’t know too mich about what’s coming, especially as the developer is keeping things close to its chest, we know something called “Arc Week” will start once the Destiny 2 weekly reset goes live which promises to be a “celebration of Arc Energy” according to a recent This Week at Bungie.
Elsewhere, Last Wish and Dreaming City cosmetics will now be more abundant thanks to Bungie upping their drop rates by nearly x3.0.
Finally, as soon as that “New Adventures Available” notification hits at the times above, we’ll have to say goodbye to Xur. For once, though, it’s not all bad news. That’s because this week’s Destiny 2 weekly reset will keep Xur’s Invitation of the Nine bounty around until Thursday, just in case you’re struggling to find time to finish it.
Destiny's 10 Most Exotic Weapons

Destiny's 10 Most Exotic Weapons
One of the main draws of Destiny is the guns. This is a loot shooter through and through, and Bungie has crafted a huge arsenal of interesting firearms to go after. While there are many standard weapons, a handful of rare selections really push the envelope. Here are Destiny's 10 most exotic weapons. -
Bad Juju
A fantastic Pulse Rifle, Bad Juju's main aesthetic is death. That skeletal spine and skull hood ornament really make it stand out from the crowd. The gun also rewards successive kills, so you can feed it more death and charge your super move at the same time. -
Fighting Lion
A sterling silver grenade launcher, the Fighting Lion's magnificent big cat finish is just the most obvious of its advantages. It's got all the buffs you'd want from a noob tube and it blasts apart shields on direct hits. Certainly, a great option if you're looking to shake things up. -
Gjallarhorn
A legend among legends, Gjallarhorn was the exotic to grab during both its reigns over Destiny's meta. It's a flaming rocket launcher with a huge silver eagle etched onto the top. The rockets it fires can be upgraded to split into tracking "wolfpack" rounds, meaning that no one is running away. -
Sleeper Simulant
When you say the words Fusion Rifle, you think of something that looks like the Sleeper Simulant. The prototype rail gun look is definitely in. The lasers it fires goes straight through enemies and also ricochets off walls. It's an easy way to score a triple kill if you're good with your aim. -
Telesto
Do you want a fusion rifle that shoots black holes? Or "void blasts" as the Destiny people might say? Telesto is your gun. While it looks like a random configuration from Borderlands' weapon generator, its large range and ability to reload your spare guns make it a great choice in the field. -
The Wardcliff Coil
OK, we may have said that Sleeper Simulant looked like a prototype, but this Wardcliff Coil looks like a prototype of that prototype. It's as if someone tore parts off of a passing space station and then used a genie to wish them into a gun. What a cool look. -
Touch Of Malice
With the Touch Of Malice, you can't help but feel Bungie reaching back into its past. Sure, this exotic scout rifle doesn't fire grenades, but it sure does look a whole lot like the Brute Shot. It's got that weird side handle and the underslung blade. Either way, a great design. -
Trinity Ghoul
One of two bows introduced in the latest Destiny 2 expansion, the Trinity Ghoul proves that Bungie is more than happy to break the rules of its own FPS. Sure, you'd probably rather have a minigun, but maybe some snipers might enjoy going back to basics with this most historic of weapons. -
Two-Tailed Fox
The Two-Tailed Fox is enormous. A huge colorful rocket launcher, it fires two distinct projectiles, each with a different payload. One fires void, the black hole juice we mentioned earlier. The other fires Solar, which involves burning your target. Combined, it's just not a very good time for whoever's on the receiving end. -
Worldline Zero
Much like the Bows introduced in Forsaken, the original Destiny had a whole class of weapon that didn't involve bullets and ammo. They were swords, and there are now quite a few blades to choose from. Perhaps the Crucible could use a Medieval Mode now that both are in the game.
