There is a quest that will drop post missions in the Warmind DLC called Nascent Dawn. The prize for this quest is the Exotic Scout Rifle, Polaris Lance (Ana Bray's gun). It has 5 steps, each step has multiple tasks and only one step can be done each week i.e. it's week 2 of the DLC and at the weekly reset a milestone was available from Ana for step 2 as I completed step 1 last week. Nascent Dawn 1/5 Step 1 - Complete 3 Patrols on Mars. Step 2 - Complete a Lost Sector on Mars. This can be either the Core Terminusfound in the Braytech Futurescape or the Ma'adim Subterrane in the Glacial Drifts. Step 3 - Access a Sleeper Node on Mars. Completing this step will grant you Diary 1/5. Step 4 - Bring the Diary 1/5 to Ana Bray. Bringing the Diary to Ana Bray will cause her to reward the Guardian with an Engram. Step 5 - Turn around from Ana Bray and head over to the marked machine. Insert the Diary into it to receive The Unsolvable Problem. Nascent Dawn 2/5 Step 1 - Get 25 Valkyriekills on Mars. Step 2 - Complete the Heroic version of Psionic Potential. Step 3 - Unlock a Sleeper Node. We now know that it is in the Lost Sector near the lowest Fast Travel point. You don't need Resonate Stems for this. Step 4 - Return Diary 2/5 to Ana Bray's terminal. Step 5 - Receive Legendary Prototype Gun. Legendary version of Polaris Lance. Nascent Dawn 3/5 Step 1 - Complete 10 waves of Escalation Protocol Step 2 - Complete 3 Vaguard Strikes Step 3 - Return Diary to Ana Bray's terminal Step 4 - Receive Masterwork Legendary Prototype Gun. Nascent Dawn 4/5 Step 1 - Using any weapon, get 5 precision multikills without reloading and 20 kills with the weapon. Step 2 - Complete the mission "Fury" on Io Step 3 - Open this sleeper node in Rasputin's Mindlab, just outside the door to Rasputin's chamber and return to Ana Bray. Step 4 - Return Diary to Ana Bray's terminal Step 5 - Receive Polaris Lance Exotic Gun Nascent Dawn 5/5 Step 1 - 15 Javelin MultiKills (3+ quickly). Step 2 - 3 PvP matches completed Step 3 - Complete Strange Terrain Mission (Nokris) Step 4 - Unlock the Sleeper node in the middle of the Alton Dynamo Server Room Step 5 - Return Diary to Ana Bray's terminal Step 6 - Receive Polaris Lance Catalyst The catalyst requires Enemies Defeated (at 0%, probably 300 as usual) and 50 kills with the Perfect Fifth perk NOTE: it appears you have to get the kills with the burn, not the perfect 5th explosion for this to count. The best way is to load up Leviathan, prepare the Perfect Shot and shoot a full health Cabal infantry. He'll burn out and you'll make progress.

Called 'Warmind', reveal stream is set for April 24th. The only thing said about it so far is that “It will send you to new places to meet new heroes and battle new enemies. You’ll earn new loot and master new activities.” What's made this one more way more interesting so far is there choice of words. They know they can't use the word 'new' if we're talking about seeing any of the current and Destiny 1 enemies. The only ones we haven't seen yet so far in D2 is SIVA but it shouldn't be just Dreg Splicers we see as it indicates new enemies. Its odds on to meet a person from the Bray family, as they invented Warminds. Just hope the story lives up to a £20/$20 DLC and it comes with a really grindy, progressional new activity.

Happy Warmind Day FG! Just thought I'd ask who's playing today? I plan to be on later to enjoy the story missions. Also may have a quick go on some Ranked Crucible if I get time. You should be able to pre-load the DLC now. It's around 7-8 GB so start it early if you want to play from live time (7pm UK / 11am PDT).
