left beginning story quest, how do I get back in?
I left a story quest during the first single player segment, but I can't figure out how to get back into it. any ideas?

Any of that sound familiar?

Once you get there, there's a lot less obvious direction.

If you have the various expansions, then there are quest lines that'll start when you go to certain locations.

Forsaken will start the first time you go to the Tangled Shore.
Shadowkeep will start the first time you go to the Moon.
Beyond Light will start the first time you go to Europa.

The current season's quest line can be started by opening the Europa map in Destinations and clicking on the Teal Shield icon. That will give you the current seasonal artifact, so be sure you do that eventually. I don't believe you can continue that quest line unless you have the season pass though.

As an alternative, you can start another character (pick a different class), and do the opening again, that might help you figure out where you got lost.


Beyond that however, there's not a lot of focused direction. There's lots of activities to do, but you have to go talk to people and see what they want out of you and then figure it out.

Talk to Banshee-44 for general bounties.
Talk to Zavala for PvE
Talk to the Drifter for competitive PvE with a little PvP tossed in.
Talk to Shaxx for PvP

Beginning? As in new light? Have you looked at your quest tab, for new light the new light tab in it?

Which story quest? The one for this season? Or the New Light quest?

New Light should be available from the Kiosk in the tower (Next to the mail).

This season's quest line can be launched by navigating to Destinations -> Europa -> then click on the Teal shield icon and hit launch.

to be clear, I don't have this season yet. I'm just trying to start the story about the vex blocking the sun on Earth. I started it, killed a couple vex, but left almost immediately. Now it's as if that quest doesn't exist. it's not at the terminal, or in my quests log. I genuinely can't find it, and it's been long enough that i can't remember where to look.

Yeah, that's this seasons's questline, the one for the seasonal artifact. You can do the first part, and get the artifact, but you won't be able to do any more unless you have the Season Pass.

Destinations -> Europa -> Click on the teal shield icon, hit launch.

I didn't see that shield, thank you! That was it.
