Season of the Wish
Embark on a journey to gather a complete set of armor from the Season of the Wish, and you'll be met with the wonderful ability that allows you to direct your Wish engrams to transform into specific high-stat Season of the Wish armor pieces.
For those who amass any six weapons from the current season or the returning classics from the Season of the Undying, a delightful opportunity unfolds: you gain the power to focus Wish engrams into the precise Season of the Wish or reprised Undying arms you desire. But remember, you must have previously acquired the weapons to employ this focusing benefit.
As you navigate and conquer the paths within the Riven's Lair playlist or The Coil, you'll find that your weapon-engram-crafting prowess grows. You’ll be rewarded with a guarantee: the first weapon engram you hone each week at the HELM, guided by the Spirit of Riven, will assuredly be an unseen Deepsight Resonance weapon that's missing from your collection of patterns.
To those who display their valor by felling Vex with weapons from the Undying series, the armory gates swing open to present yet another advantage. Your initial weekly focus of an Undying weapon engram under the Spirit of Riven's gaze will be sure to yield a novel Deepsight Resonance weapon, filling in the gaps of your armament blueprints.
Those who diligently advance their rapport with the Spirit of Riven in the HELM, achieving the enviable Rank 10, will encounter an outpouring of goodwill. From then on, every activity completion that would normally grant you a Wish engram will now bestow an additional one—doubling your earnings with every rewarded endeavor.
Furthermore, as you utilize Lair Keys when accessing Lair Chests within either Riven's Lair or The Coil, an opportunity emerges that may lead to a fortunate turn of events. With each Lair Key redemption during your Riven's Lair undertakings, fate might just favor you with an extra Wish engram.
Those who approach The Coil with skill and determination, securing a Silver ranking or higher in their endeavors, are in for a crafting treat. The inaugural weekly use of a Lair key there delivers more than just satisfaction; it also grants a coveted Season of the Wish weapon, complete with Deepsight Resonance, bound to be one you have yet to blueprint.
As for the mystical Blind Well in the Dreaming City, brave those depths evoke a Heroic resolution and be richly rewarded. The first climax of a Tier Three (or higher) Blind Well each week doesn’t just end triumphantly; it also yields a Wish engram, accompanied by the choice of either a piece of sumptuous high-stat Season of the Wish armor or a weapon from the Season of the Wish's fabled arsenal.
