The latest event in *Destiny 2*, Past Is Prologue, is here, and it’s packed with enticing rewards. To unlock these goodies, players need to focus on acquiring a special in-game item: Bento Boxes. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to efficiently farm Bento Boxes in *Destiny 2*.
How To Get Bento Boxes in Destiny 2
The Past Is Prologue event operates differently from typical *Destiny 2* events. Participation requires earning Bento Tokens, with a cap of eight tokens per account. To acquire these, players must visit the Drifter to unlock specific quests and then complete them. Below is a list of all Bento Token quests in *Destiny 2*, as sourced from Profane Gaming:
- A Dubious Bento: Collect 10 Dubious Celery from defeated targets in Gambit and 10 Century Eggs from defeated combatants on the Moon.
- Dredgens of Yore: Secure 50 Guardian final blows in Crucible or Gambit. Additional progress is earned from final blows in Gambit and with Hand Cannons.
- Martial Mementos: Achieve 200 final blows with Malfeasance, Touch of Malice, Whisper of the Worm, Xenophage, or Arbalest.
- Nightmare Kills: Defeat 3 Nightmare bosses and challenging combatants.
- Nightmare Lunch: Complete 60 activities on the Moon, with bonus progress for Nightmare Hunts.
- Snakebite: Secure 200 final blows with Gambit weapons.
- The Stuff of Legends: Finish 2 final encounters in any raid or dungeon, with additional progress from raids.
Once all quests are completed, players must visit Eris on the Moon to claim their Bento Token. This minor step is well worth it for the rewards offered by Past Is Prologue.
