Destiny 2 has just started season 18 called Season of Plunder, a pirate-themed season with new features, weapons, and quest. One of them is the new activity, Ketchcrash. We are going to show you all about the Season of Plunder, including the things to look forward to and what to expect.

Season of Plunder Guide in Destiny 2

The Season of Plunder starts upon logging in, where you are given the Salvage and Salvation quest. Finish this quest to reach Eliksni Quarter, where we talk to Spider. He is going to give you the Seasonal Artifact, Skeleton Key, and the mission, Ahoy and Aweigh.

This then grants you access to the new activity, Ketchcrash. In this activity, you are going to engage in a ship-to-ship combat, where you can use the cannons on your ship to defeat the enemy ship.

You can even board the enemy ship and kill its crew. After completing the task, you will be asked to go to the Star Chart. Finishing this mission will unlock the Sails of the Shipstealer quest.

What You Need to Know About the Season of Plunder

The Sails of the Shipstealer quest is the seasonal quest that lasts until the Season of Plunder ends. You are going to obtain the Captain’s Atlas after talking to Mithrax. You are also going to receive seasonal currencies such as the map fragments and treasure coordinates.
