Destiny 2's recent patch allows for the Deepsight Focus Upgrade for the Seasonal Vendors to reset DAILY. This guide is for all players trying to optimize, going over the: Basics of Seasonal Loops, Each seasons shortest Upgrade Order, Weapon Recommendations to focus on, and focusing options for Free-2-play players. (AND still keep weapons that drop. DON'T rely on getting the pattern....in case time and/or RNG isn't on your side. You don't need to craft.....but this is the best opportunity to try and do so.)
If you have the time, definitely grind some of the patterns out - even if you haven't bought these seasons yet. You can realistically cram in a year's worth of content in 3 weeks and still walk away with several weapon patterns for top tier weapons.
End of the video will go over free-2-play options as well as the perks for all weapons so you can decide on ahead of time what you want to chase.
