The latest event in *Destiny 2*, Past Is Prologue, is here, bringing with it a plethora of exciting rewards. To unlock these, players need to focus on farming Bento Boxes, a crucial in-game item. Here’s a detailed guide on how to efficiently farm Bento Boxes in *Destiny 2*.
How To Get Bento Boxes in Destiny 2
The Past Is Prologue event introduces a unique mechanic where players must earn Bento Tokens to participate. Each account can earn up to eight tokens, but the only way to acquire them is by engaging with quests from the Drifter. Here's how to get started:
Visit the Drifter to unlock quests and then complete them. Below is a list of all the 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: Get 50 Guardian final blows in Crucible or Gambit. Final blows in Gambit and with Hand Cannons earn additional progress.
- Martial Mementos: Get 200 final blows with Malfeasance, Touch of Malice, Whisper of the Worm, Xenophage, or Arbalest.
