Destiny 2 Wish weapons farm: Where to find them

Unlike older Seasons that were plagued with confusing currencies and gameplay loops, Season of the Wish features the same streamlined system introduced with Lightfall Season of Defiance (S21). This system comes with fewer currencies and items to deal with and is, hands down, much simpler to understand. In a nutshell, there are mainly three methods to acquire Witch weapons:

• Completing seasonal activities: Riven’s Lair and Weekly Missions
• Decoding Wish engrams at the Spirit of Riven in the H.E.L.M.
• Increasing your Spirit of Riven Reputation

If you’re specifically looking for the Recovered Red War weapons, you can focus them at the Ritual Table too.

Seasonal activities

Season 22’s gameplay loop is as straightforward as it gets. There are no intermediate currencies to farm nor steps to complete. You can simply head to the Riven’s Lair playlist and start farming completions. You don’t need to farm Umbral energy or anything like that.

Pro tip: Having a Lair Key will reward you with more seasonal loot, including Wish weapons, when completing Season of the Wish activities.

Wish engrams

Completing Wish activities when possessing a LAir Key will reward you with Wish Engrams. These can be taken to the Spirit of Riven at the H.E.L.M. and focused into Wish weapons or Armor.

The cost to focus Wish engrams has been greatly reduced compared to previous seasons. You’ll simply require the following:

• 1 Witch Engram (or 4 if you want a specific weapon)
• 3,000 Glimmer
