All I have left to do to complete this is to "Neutralize Black Tusk Activities 0/1". What activities? I've been running invaded mission all afternoon to open the DUA Stronghold. Will completing the Stronghold mission satisfy this requirement? Seems like I just did this last week.........
So to answer my own question, no you do not have to complete the stronghold mission to finish the weekly project. Just do something like a "territory control" activity and that satisfies the requirement of "Neutralize Black Tusk Activities". Even though you're clearing out whole sections of the map of Black Tusk, just doing one of these "side" missions to get a key to open a loot chest satisfies the requirement. Mission accomplished agents!
For my efforts, I received a blueprint for a Fenris Replica Holster. Yay! I'll probably never use it since gold gear is not a problem to drop in the open world. Oh snap, did I say that out loud?!?!?! I feel this slip of the tongue will go the way of the "loot cave". Nice move Massive to add the additional spawn point. We've already developed a new strat. Keep watching Twitch.... I guess if we get everything we want too soon, we' ll stop playing.
