WhileDestiny 2keeps moving forward with new content and narratives, there’s still a reason to dip back into familiar locales. Whether that’s to farm thegenerous armor drops from Pit of Heresyor to nab an Exotic weapon likethe Collective Obligation pulse rifle, there’s value in the past. Bungie also recognizes this and has even gone as far as to make older Raid weapons craftable. The latest six-player activity to receive the treatment is Last Wish. The Raid’s powerful treasures and unparalleled experience make it worthlearning what “KWTD” meansto experience it.

Destiny 2offers a range of Raidsfor players to take part in. Representing one of the game’s top challenges, these activities require a team, communication, and coordination. Last Wish is one of the most challenging Raids but offers exceptional rewards. Introduced in theForsakenexpansion, this Raid takes Guardians deep into the heart of the Dreaming City to face the last living Wish Dragon, Riven of a Thousand Voices. Of course, high stakes demand appropriate rewards, and Last Wish doesn’t disappoint. The Raid offers players a chance at some fantastic weapons, one-of-a-kind armor, and even a powerful Exotic laser beam.

Hawthorne helps crafting
While it’s totally possible to exclusively earn red-bordered weapons as rewards from completing encounters within the Raid, it can take quite a while. There’s a chance one of these “blueprint” weapons can appear after any encounter; it’s just up to luck. There is a better option, though. Hawthorne offers a weekly quest asking players to go into Last Wish and complete the Raid. With Hawthorne’s help, Guardians can double or potentially even triple or quadruple their weekly red-bordered weapon gains.
The quest Hawthorne offers allows players to choose one weapon and receive a guaranteed red-bordered version of that weapon upon completion. This is on top of the automatic red border provided once a week (per character) after players successfully finish the Raid. And, of course, all the while, there’s a chance Guardians can earn extra red-bordered weapons as an encounter reward. With such a lengthy list of guns, players looking to craft everything from Last Wish can use all the help they can get.
Farm One Thousand Voices when Last Wish is featured
Though some Raid weapons are notoriously hard to obtain, One Thousand Voices doesn’t have to be one of those. In fact, there’s a relatively easy way to increase the chances one has of obtaining the Exotic weapon. To make this all work, Last Wish must be the weekly featured Raid, and players will need a checkpoint at Riven of a Thousand Voices. From there, it’ll just take a Fireteam and some time.
Whenever a Raid is a weekly featured option, players can repeatedly complete encounters and earn loot each time. Riven, in particular, drops Ethereal Keys, used at the end of Last Wish to open a single chest in a room filled with rewards. While players will max out at five keys, Guardians can farm Riven until the cap is reached and then open five chests at the end instead of just one. While this doesn’t guarantee the Exotic, it’ll make players’ hunt for One Thousand Voices a little more manageable.
