Destiny: Flashpoints - markers and activities Destiny 2 Guide

Last update: 29 March 2021

In this chapter of Destiny 2 game guide you will learn what the Flashpoints are, where to find them, how to perform them and what rewards can be gained from them.

Flashpoint activities are a good way to get new, better equipment. Once a week you have the opportunity to perform Flashpoint tasks, which change every Tuesday at 19:00 CET and take place on a different planet. If you want to know more about the Flashpoints that pop up periodically and provide great rewards, check out the developer's website once in a while here.

Flashpoint - how to find them?

First, locate which planet has the Flashpoint status. You can easily decipher this when you find a golden sun next to the planet - this indicates a Weekly Challenge. When you hover the pointer over the main NPC of a particular planet, you will notice an additional task for which you can be rewarded with a Powerful Gear Tier 1 - it's a sign that Flashpoint is active here.

The extra task associated with the Flashpoint event does not need to be picked up anywhere, as it is available to all players from the beginning of the week. After completing a certain amount of activities on a specific planet, the task will be completed and you can visit the NPC to claim your reward.
