Like past Destiny 2 seasons, Bungie will temporarily vault a few Legendary weapons. With a new expansion not too far away, players can expect these to be off the game for a fairly long time. Therefore, it is important to farm each weapon ahead of the season's ending period, as some of these gear pieces' are set to expire before the final week.
In the recent TWID (This Week in Destiny), Bungie confirmed all the weapons that will be leaving the loot pool in Season 23. Note that only the Adept versions of these weapons will be removed, and the standard versions will still be available in the focusing section.
Nightfall and Trials of Osiris are the only activities that currently matter during seasonal weapons vaulting, as Destiny 2 doesn't have a ritual activity that can offer players Adept weapons.
Every weapon leaving the Destiny 2 Season 23 loot pool
Destiny 2 Season 23 is scheduled to be released on November 28, 2023, following the ongoing Festival of the Lost event. As mentioned earlier, players looking to grind the event out should keep an eye on the ongoing Grandmaster Nightfall in Week 9. The Scarlet Keep is giving away Buzzard's standard and Adept versions, making this the last week to farm.
