It’s Destiny 2 weekly reset time yet again and, with season 6 drawing to a close, you might be forgiven for brushing off today’s weekly reset as something of a non-event. As you’ll soon discover, there’s plenty new in the Destiny 2 weekly reset to get excited about, from new activities, to the return of the Iron Banner. Yes, when the game pops up with “New Adventures Available,” it can be confusing, so we’ll cover each and every tiny thing that’s changed, as well as the exact reset time today, May 14.
Destiny 2 Weekly Reset (May 14) | When is the reset time today?
You’re probably counting down the hours already. The Destiny 2 weekly reset is at 10 AM Pacific/1 PM Eastern. That’s 6 PM BST in the UK.
You don’t need to log out for the weekly reset to take hold at that time, either. Just log in and play as normal and you’ll eventually see a “New Adventures Available” message at the times above. You’ll then be able to play on the fresh slate of activities the game has in store for you.
What’s changed in the Destiny 2 weekly reset? (May 14)
With no new update on the horizon, and the Season of Opulence starting in early June, you’re pretty much left with your normal slate of resfreshed activities, with one key difference. But, first, the usual line of weekly reset changes, as per Bungie’s official Ritual Reset page:
- Call to Arms Crucible Challenge
- Destination Flashpoints
- Raid Challenge Encounters
- Raid Checkpoints
- Dreaming City Powerful Rewards
- Spider’s Powerful Bounty
- Gambit Powerful Bounty
- Gambit Weekly Challenge
- Nightfall Strike
- Weekly Clan Engrams
- Weekly Clan XP Caps
- Eververse Bright Dust Selections
Elsewhere, the weekly reset time marks the beginning of season 6’s final Iron Banner event. Head on over to The Tower and chat with Lord Saladin to begin. Don’t forget, this is the last opportunity you’ll have to polish off any season-long Iron Banner Triumphs across the next seven days, so be sure to get a move on if you’re lagging behind.
Finally, Xur departs today. He’s not gone for good, praise the Seven. The merchant always departs on Tuesdays and will return with a fresh quartet of items on Friday.
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.
