Destiny 2: Completing More Than a Weapon Week 6 Story and Steps

Complete Destiny 2's More Than a Weapon Week 6: earn 500 Seraph Key Codes, open a Heist Battleground chest, and witness Rasputin's political shift.

The sixth week of Season of the Seraph in Destiny 2 pushes the More Than a Weapon questline into a quieter, more political register. Guardians return to the H.E.L.M. not just to blast through Heist Battlegrounds, but to listen as the Warmind Rasputin wrestles with a question that has never come naturally to him: how to protect humanity without simply erasing every threat in sight. It is a fascinating turn for a character who has often been portrayed as a blunt instrument, and the week’s steps reflect that shift.

Starting the Week at the Exo Frame

As usual, a conversation with Rasputin at the Exo Frame in the H.E.L.M. begins the next phase. The old machine speaks with renewed clarity, reaffirming his resolve to protect humanity and seize control of the Warmind network in order to remove Xivu Arath’s forces. He does not mince words, but there is a new weight behind them. Guardians are sent back into the field to retrieve more submind data from locked Seraph Chests.

Step by Step: Seraph Key Codes and Heist Battlegrounds

The path this week is straightforward, but it asks for a little patience.

1. Speak with Rasputin at the Exo Frame in the H.E.L.M.

2. Earn 500 Seraph Key Codes by completing ritual activities.

3. Launch the Heist Battleground playlist and open a locked Seraph Chest.

4. Return to the H.E.L.M. to deliver the submind data.

Ritual activities in Destiny 2 remain the most reliable way to accumulate Seraph Key Codes. Strikes, Crucible matches, and Gambit rounds all count, so Guardians can pick their preferred grind. Once the 500 Key Codes are in hand, the Heist Battleground playlist becomes the centerpiece. Opening the chest at the end consumes the currency and produces the data Rasputin needs.

Guardians who have unlocked the Heisted Deepsight upgrade at the Exo Frame can earn additional rewards from Heist Battlegrounds. That upgrade guarantees a random Deepsight gun drop once per week from opening the locked Seraph Chest in the playlist. It is a nice little insurance policy for anyone chasing weapon patterns, and it makes the weekly run feel a bit less like a chore.

A Heated Conversation and an Emergency Meeting

After the submind data is collected, players are instructed to return to the H.E.L.M. There, a conversation unfolds between Mara Sov, Osiris, and Rasputin. It is not exactly a friendly catch-up. Mara Sov is measured but pointed, Osiris is pragmatic, and Rasputin is still adjusting to being treated like a participant rather than a weapon. Their exchange leads to an emergency meeting of the Vanguard.

Guardians must then travel to Zavala’s office in The Tower for a council scene. Zavala, Caiatl, Mara Sov, Mithrax, and Ana Bray are all present. The table is crowded, and the discussion is tense. Each leader has a different stake in the Warmind’s future. Caiatl’s military perspective cuts through the room, while Ana Bray’s faith in Rasputin feels personal. In the end, the council decides to continue restoring Rasputin and to take control of the Warmind away from Xivu Arath’s reach. It is a diplomatic turning point, and the Vanguard’s usual quick-strike approach gives way to something more strategic.

Rasputin’s Final Thought

Week six ends with one more visit to Rasputin at the Exo Frame. He admits that force has always been his answer to Xivu Arath and other enemies of humanity. Now he is being asked to protect without destruction, and that is a language he is still learning. The moment is surprisingly vulnerable. Rasputin sends Guardians away until he can think of a solution, while telling them to continue following the Vanguard’s orders. It leaves the player with room to breathe, a rare pause in a season usually defined by firefights. The old Warmind has a soft spot buried under all that firepower, even if he would never say so out loud.

Rewards to Watch For

• The Heisted Deepsight upgrade adds a weekly Deepsight weapon drop from the locked Seraph Chest.

• The final Catalyst for the Revision Zero Exotic Pulse Rifle becomes available as the questline approaches its final week.

• During the original run, there was still over a month left in Season of the Seraph, leaving plenty of time to collect seasonal weapons and armor.

With one more week left in the More Than a Weapon questline when it originally launched, Guardians had a clear finish line in sight. The final Catalyst for the Revision Zero Exotic Pulse Rifle was the big dangling reward, and there was still over a month left in Season of the Seraph to collect special weapons and armor. In 2026, this week reads as a strong example of Destiny 2’s seasonal storytelling at its best—small council scenes, emotional beats, and a bit of classic loot chasing wrapped around a Warmind learning to become something more than a weapon.
