The latest event in *Destiny 2*, Past Is Prologue, is here, and it's packed with exciting rewards. To unlock these goodies, players need to get their hands on a special in-game item known as Bento Boxes. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to farm Bento Boxes quickly in *Destiny 2*.

How To Get Bento Boxes in Destiny 2

The Past Is Prologue event in *Destiny 2* operates differently from typical events. To participate, players must earn Bento Tokens, with a maximum of eight tokens per account. The only way to acquire these tokens is by visiting the Drifter to unlock specific quests and then completing them. Below is a detailed list of all the Bento Token quests in *Destiny 2*, courtesy of Profane Gaming:

A Dubious Bento: Collect 10 Dubious Celery from defeated targets in Gambit and 10 Century Eggs from defeated combatants on the Moon.
Dredgens of Yore: Get 50 Guardian final blows in Crucible or Gambit. Final blows in Gambit and with Hand Cannons earn additional progress.
Martial Mementos: Get 200 final blows with Malfeasance, Touch of Malice, Whisper of the Worm, Xenophage, or Arbalest.
Nightmare Kills: Defeat 3 Nightmare bosses and challenging combatants.
Nightmare Lunch: Complete 60 activities on the Moon. Bonus progress for Nightmare Hunts.
Snakebite: Secure 200 final blows with Gambit weapons.
The Stuff of Legends: Finish 2 final encounters in any raid or dungeon. Raids provide additional progress.

Once all quests are completed, players must visit Eris on the Moon to claim their Bento Token. This small step is crucial to unlocking the rewards of the Past Is Prologue event.
