Destiny 2 does not support cheat codes. The game runs on a weekly reset system that gives time-limited rewards. Knowing exactly what to do each reset week maximizes your gear progression without wasting a single activity.
WEEKLY RESET CHECKLIST
Every Tuesday at reset (10 AM PT), complete these activities in order:
Priority 1 (Pinnacle gear, raises Power Level above the cap):
Raid weekly challenge (one per character, 3 characters maximum).
Dungeon weekly challenge (one per character).
Trials of Osiris: Reach 7 wins on a card (one reward per account).
Nightfall: The Ordeal at Grandmaster difficulty (one per character).
Priority 2 (Powerful gear, raises Power Level to soft cap):
Seasonal story missions (3 per week, account-wide).
Vanguard Ops playlist: Complete 3 strikes.
Crucible playlist: Win 3 matches.
Gambit playlist: Complete 3 matches.
Iron Banner (available specific weeks): Complete 4 bounties.
Priority 3 (Engrams and seasonal currency):

Spend your weekly vendor reputation tokens before they cap at 10,000.
EXOTIC FARMING METHODS
Lost Sector Rotation:
Legend and Master Lost Sectors give a chance to drop Exotic armor for the slot displayed each day.
Check the in-game Legend Lost Sector indicator for the active slot (Head, Arms, Chest, or Legs).
Solo complete the Lost Sector on Legend difficulty for a guaranteed Exotic drop on first completion.
Master difficulty gives a higher chance of high-stat Exotic rolls (65 to 68 total stats).
Xur Weekly Purchase:
Xur appears every Friday in a different location.
He sells one Exotic weapon and one Exotic armor piece per character class per week.
His inventory resets weekly. Buy his high-stat armor rolls (65 plus stats) immediately on Friday.
