How To Get Destiny 2’s Forerunner Exotic Sidearm: Strange Key Location

Bungie’s 30th Anniversary event is live in Destiny 2. Players have a huge batch of new quests to complete to earn unique rewards. Prepare to feel nostalgic as the game brings back iconic weapons and gear. Strange Coins and Strange Favor Ranks are the two core elements of this new reward structure. Since it’s a Bungie-themed event, of course, Halo is in the mix. The new weapons added in the event all tie into Halo, either visually or through some reference.

Various weapons themed after Halo and other Bungie games are now in Destiny 2. During the course of that event, you need to get your hands on the Forerunner Exotic Sidearm. The Magnum Opus quest to get the Forerunner is a long and complicated thing, you need to do is get your Strange Favor to rank 4. This will reward you with the Strange Key in Destiny 2.

Strange Key Location

You will be directed to a non-combat version of the starting Dares zone, and you have to use the Strange Key. The area you’re looking for is right at the start of the zone. You will need to look to the right of the entrance and look for a door in the snow. You will see the indicator of where to use the Strange Key in Destiny 2 when you get nearby to the icy boulders in this zone.

Use the key on the panel to open the door. Head through the door you just found and continue. Jump through the simple puzzle to the other side. You will then find an abandoned cryo pod on the other side. Open it to find the item you need to take to Banshee.

Also, to get the Catalyst for the Forerunner pistol is to grind out Bounties for Xur. Some players had to gain quite a few ranks with Xur to get this done.
