Seasonal challenges for Destiny 2 Season of the Risen week 8 (April 12) 

Seasonal Challenges in Destiny 2 helps players, from powering up Seasonal Artifacts to rewarding everyone with Bright Dust. This is the extra bit of work that everyone has to put up with, which comes in the first ten weeks of every season. The ongoing Season 16 only has a couple of weeks left until these objectives stop coming altogether.

In the next April 12 weekly reset, there will be five Seasonal Challenges that will reward everyone with Challenger EXP and Bright Dust upon completion. Some of the objectives include players running weapon calibrations and completing Vow of the Disciple challenges.

The following article lists all the Seasonal Challenges for Destiny 2 week 8 in Season of the Risen.

Applying a finisher to a Hive Ghost is one of the newest gameplay mechanics introduced with The Witch Queen expansion. They can be found floating in the air after a Hive Lightbearer is defeated. If the Ghost is not killed within the time limit, the Lightbearer will spawn again.

To complete this challenge, however, players will need to defeat and crush a total of 100 Hive Ghosts by beating Savathun's Lucent Hives in Throne World. Since this objective is retroactive, players who have already crushed 100 Hive Ghosts will have their challenges completed from before.

Rewards: Challenger XP+.
