The wish granting dragons known as Ahamkara are back at the center of the story in Wishing The Best, the seasonal quest for Season of the Wish in Destiny 2.

Each season, Destiny 2 has a story which updates with new steps each week - requiring you to participate in seasonal activities to progress.

For the Season of the Wish, this will involve a deal with Riven, the Ahamkara who served as the final boss of the the Last Wish raid.

This page explains how Wishing All the Best works as well as all Wishing All the Best quest steps.

How to start the Wishing All the Best quest in Destiny 2

Wishing All the Best is the main Season of the Wish quest, but you will need to unlock it first.

When you load Destiny 2 the first time during the Season of the Wish you will be pulled straight into a mission in the Dreaming City, on a two-part quest called Final Wish. Work your way to the end of this mission, where you will help to summon Riven, the last Ahamkara.

Next, you must visit Mara Sov. She will be waiting for you in the H.E.L.M. Speaking to her does several important things.

First, it satisfies Part 2 of Final Wish. Second, this unlocks the Queensfoil Censer, the seasonal artifact for Season of the Wish. Finally, it grants you the Wishing All the Best quest, allowing you to get started on the seasonal story in earnest.

When does Wishing All the Best expire in Destiny 2?

Usually seasonal quests in Destiny 2 can be completed after the season ends. However, this is the final season of Beyond Light, and Destiny 2 will be entering The Final Shape. To be safe, it's probably a good idea to try and have this wrapped up before the new update arrives on Tuesday 4th June.

There will likely be an epilogue of some sort during the final week of the season. That means that even if you have complete all steps of Wishing All the Best, you should still check in around that time to see what's new, and how the story is transitioning into The Final Shape.

Good luck completing Wishing All the Best!
