Here's how challenges work and what's required of you in Destiny 2's Season of the Lost.
Destiny 2's Season of the Lost is officially in its third week, dropping a new set of challenges and continuing the current story of Savathun's machinations. This week's missions are once again focused on earning Parallax Orbit currency, upgrading Wayfinder's Compass, and participating in various playlist events.
As in previous weeks, you won't have to complete each objective within seven days, as Destiny 2 stacks new seasonal challenges on top of old ones. The advantage of this system is that it not only allows you to prioritize the tasks that you consider most important, but sometimes you can complete more than one task at the same time.
Here's how it works and all the seasonal challenges available so far.

How Seasonal Challenges Work
Seasonal Challenges can be accessed through the Missions tab, where they'll find missions such as eliminating Scorn with grenade launchers, farming the Parallax Orbit, and uncovering Ley Line secrets during this season's mission. Completing a challenge always rewards you with a substantial amount of XP, and other missions include glow powder, emblems, and weapons. Each challenge can be completed once per account, and around 10 new challenges are added each week, which will usually be active throughout the season.
If you arrive late to the seasonal party, the good news is that you'll still have time to complete the remaining missions before the next season starts, usually from week 10 during a season. Completing the Season of the Lost challenges will fulfill the requirements for the Master of All Seasons challenge, which will earn you a large Glitter Powder reward that can be spent on certain cosmetics, emotes, and items in the Eververse store.
