In the video, the host provides a detailed guide on obtaining the Forerunner exotic sidearm in Destiny 2, introduced in the 30th-anniversary update. The process begins by interacting with Xur in the Treasure Trove area to start the Magnum Opus exotic quest. Players need to collect seven strange coins, primarily obtained through the Dares of Eternity activity. Completing Star Horse bounties—particularly the gold tier—progresses the quest, requiring teamwork and strategic play to accumulate sufficient points. Once players reach rank four in Dares of Eternity and obtain the Strange Key, they navigate through various challenges, including a glowing area, rock alignment, a cave with a jumping puzzle, and jets to retrieve an anobilis object. This object is then taken to the Gunsmith at the Tower to unlock the Forerunner exotic sidearm.

In this part of the video, the host provides a comprehensive guide on obtaining the new Forerunner exotic sidearm in Destiny 2, introduced with the 30th anniversary update. The tutorial begins by instructing players to interact with Xur in the Treasure Trove area of Eternity to unlock the Magnum Opus exotic quest, which initiates the Forerunner questline. The first crucial step involves collecting seven strange coins, which the host suggests acquiring solely through the Dares of Eternity activity because it is linked to a ranking system necessary for future quest steps. The host also advises players to check their inventory for a resplendent reward package that may contain up to three strange coins, expediting the process. Additionally, players are recommended to grab bounties from the Gunsmith to earn strange coins more efficiently during the Dares of Eternity runs.

In this part of the video, the speaker explains the process of completing a specific quest step that requires players to complete three Star Horse bounties. They highlight the different tiers of bounties—bronze, silver, and gold—and note that higher difficulty bounties provide more progress towards the quest. For instance, a singular gold tier bounty, while difficult, can complete the objective in one go.

The speaker further delves into the tasks required for the gold tier bounty, such as completing a Legend difficulty run of the Dares of Eternity without matchmaking, needing a team or using LFG. They emphasize the importance of coordinating with teammates to avoid finishing encounters too quickly, as sufficient points (300,000) are needed for completion, which requires extending encounters to farm enemies.

Additionally, they stress the importance of finalizing loadouts before starting as they will be locked. Once the players complete this quest step, they should return to Xur to acquire the Strange Key, typically earned by reaching rank four, further drawing attention to the necessity of grinding Dares of Eternity to achieve this rank.
