Old player thinking about coming back. I've been out since Forsaken, and the amount of info on what's been going on is overwhelming.
Can anytime give some guidance on what is worth prioritizing before WQ drops: things that are being sunset, mats that are going away, that sort of thing.
That, and what are the chances Beyond Light and 30th anniversary stuff goes on sale in the near future.

I would argue the sale is very likely, they almost always put their prior stuff on sale with a new release or around one. At least for beyond light, 30th is still pretty new but still likely. Maybe not as big of a discount? I think they only dip to 25% off or so.
What kind of shape are your alts in? I was at the end of the line for interesting content for my main so I turned to my (nearly completely ignored since birth) Warlock to see what's up. Turns out I had never taken that char through any of the BL or SK missions so I set out to do that. Had a blast not only leaning how to Warlock (gah compared to Hunter) but just playing some great missions and content. Got her Stasis SC ready and PL up (not that it matters now that all are being given 1350 but w/e).
Ik, not really a 'get ready for WQ kinda gig (never been a content prepper; just drops and I play that shit) but still pretty fun to close the gap before Feb 22.
EDIT: Hmm..I guess if you haven't touched the game since Forsaken then all your toons are in the same shape. Maybe get Stasis going for your main and your next fav alt.
I'm pretty much just waiting. I'll farm Lake of Shadows GM next week to stock up on golf balls and prisms but otherwise I'm playing other stuff. Gonna have to refarm pretty much everything after the 22nd anyway.
I am working on titles. Got deadeye gilded, splicer and the realm one from this season. Honestly just grinding triumphs I haven’t gotten and finishing catalysts
Turn in gunsmith mats and keep the legendary weapons, in theory this will help with weapon crafting but the main idea is that you’ll level up Banshee (since this is the new way to level him up)
Find a set of weapons that you might want to use out of these categories since they’ll be part of the Champion mod pool:
Auto rifle/ Smg (for overload)
Scout Rifle (for Barrier)
This is null and void if you have an exotic for these champs already or plan to play with a group in high tier content.
Forgot to add:
The 30th anniversary stuff is a bit of a mystery since we know it’s sticking around a bit after WQ launch but not when it leaves. As for Discounts Beyond light might drop to £25-30 (sorry Americans I don’t know conversions) but don’t get your hopes too high.
It wil stay the whole year at least. You can claim rewards in the bungie store regarding those events until 31.12.2022.
