‘Destiny’ Weekly Reset For September 22, Fallen S.A.B.E.R. Tests Nightfall

Destiny: The Taken King has officially been out a week on the PlayStation and Xbox. Some players have already rocketed to top-tier Light levels and completed the Raid, while others don’t have that kind of free time and are still trucking along with completing the new Quests and other activities. Whatever your taste, there’s a fresh set of Nightfall, bounties, and other items to partake for the Destiny week starting September 22.

As always, this rotation of Destiny activities will last through the following Tuesday at approximately 5 a.m. ET / 2 a.m. PT. A new set of activities will launch then. Weekly Crucible bounties are dependent on completing the Crucible Quest Line given by Lord Shaxx.

Old Russia, Earth: Rush to the aid of the AI Warmind Rasputin as he broadcasts a plea for help across the system.
